With the online environment changing so rapidly, those of us working in the business of building websites, managing search engine optimization (SEO) and writing good web copy that has the right balance of keywords (and engage the reader – most important) attending conferences and shows like the one in Sydney this week is critical.
Internet statistics alone are enough to make the head spin.
Here’s one – there have been 2.3 billion searches on mobiles in 2011 (so far!).
Here’s another – there are 4 billion mobile phones being used in the world – many more than the 1 billion televisions.
And another: in 2013 mobiles are expected to outstrip computers.
Yes, mobile technology was a focus of the Internet Show, though eCommerce got a good run as did digital marketing and social media.
The seminars affirmed that we at Bold Type are right up there in SEO as we are in writing good copy for our online clients. We’ve done some digital video and that’s the new frontier for our business. We have the expertise so watch this space (as they say).
