Another year (in fact, another decade\u2026.ouch), and another inevitable pile of\u00a0\u00a0in all facets of business, entertainment, and life in general. So at Orchid Box we thought we do something different. Then we changed our minds. Cue the fanfares\u2026<\/p>\n
In the constantly evolving world of\u00a0\u00a0predictions are made every week for the next exciting development to follow. Much as the predictions for the next \u201cPele\u201d or the next \u201cBeatles\u201d are made every year, a great number of these end up thrown in the bin within a few months, but it\u2019s vital to have an idea of at least the potential areas of growth to keep your competitors a step behind. If you get ahead of the game for one big\u00a0you can boost your business impressively within weeks. Here\u2019s just a few predictions for the coming year\u2026<\/p>\n
This is a guarantee for the next year \u2013\u00a0\u00a0as they see the effect it has on business online fir their competitors – increasing budgets and departments dealing with SEO and online marketing. Get ahead of the game and you could dominate your markets. This doesn\u2019t just apply for larger companies either \u2013\u00a0\u00a0for\u00a0\u00a0are going to be widely available and cheaply too.\u00a0\u00a0to find out what we can do for your website \u2013 large or small…or even\u00a0!<\/p>\n
Inevitably, Google is going to rule the marketbut we\u2019ll see a bit of a shift over the next few months in terms of percentages. Possibly, and hopefully too for many, Bing will begin taking a bigger share of the market, even in the UK.\u00a0\u00a0together to form a super unit which will most likely see Bing take at least a 20% of the US market\u2026whether the UK follows suit remains to be seen. We\u2019ll also no doubt see a few extra little engines with new ideas spring up in the same way that\u00a0and co did in 2009 \u2013 and no doubt we\u2019ll see them disappear again within a few months\u2026not that we\u2019re cynical or anything.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s an easy prediction \u2013\u00a0, remaining at the forefront of technological innovation and increasingly monopolising the search engine world. Changes we\u2019ll see taking hold include the rise of\u00a0, ensuring all online shops have to meet Google\u2019s demands in terms of organising and categorising their searches. We also predict the shortening of user journeys and Google begins monopolising the information market \u2013 US users are already seeing their Google boxes bringing up weather results in antipation of your queries, meaning you don\u2019t even have to click enter; in the UK we can find country capitals and stock information immediately without entering another website. So\u00a0will increasingly decrease traffic to information sites by making users\u2019 lives easier, good thing or bad it\u2019s up to you\u2026<\/p>\n
And on a side-note, their\u00a0\u00a0is a little while off being effective for now, expect to see that take a back seat shortly.<\/p>\n
One good area of Google\u2019s growth worth exploiting for all businesses is\u00a0. Local searches have always been a big part of the web \u2013 town names, countries and street names alongside a service or company name \u2013 and Google Maps is a great way to top search results without having to labour through years of\u00a0or high\u00a0\u00a0cost. It still\u00a0, but is an area that has not been taken over by the big guns just yet.<\/p>\n
Finally, a big area of development over the next year in terms of SEO is\u00a0\u2013 that is to say giving sites increasingly accurate and detailed\u00a0\u00a0and other such metrics, so clients can push budgets into profitable areas of their site and make changes in others to measure differences in conversions. Orchid Box are already at the forefront of such changes and developments, and are working on\u00a0\u00a0in terms of\u00a0and testing amongst other things.
