Digital Marketing Trends In 2015 That Will Boost Your Strategy

 

Digital marketing is an impulsive, erratic, and volatile industry. The moment you catch the tiger by the tail, there’s a new tiger whose fugacious tail requires catching.

Keeping up with a changeable industry seems like a fool’s errand. Where is the balance between chasing capricious trends, on the one hand, and ossifying into a Luddite on the other?

Thankfully, there is an in between — a balance. If you can identify current trends, settle on an actionable strategy, and take measurable movement forward, you’re bound to succeed. I’ve identified X such strategies that you should keep in mind over the next few months, if not the next few years of digital marketing.

 Stop relying on Google.

Mobile. Just mobile.

Social conversion is coming.

New payment methods are on the rise.  

Paid advertising is here to stay.

Marketing automation becomes de rigueur.

Content creators are more necessary than ever.

The algorithm will change. And change again.

Conversion optimization has high ROI.

Growth hacking will continue to evolve.

This list of online trends might sound intimidating. In spite of your fears, go boldly forward. Wrapped up in success is always the risk of failure.

I would never advise closing your eyes and jumping headfirst into a trend. The digital marketing space is too fickle for that. I would, however, recommend giving these trends a respectful nod and cautious experimentation. You’ll never know the upside until you give it a try.

What digital marketing trends will you be using in the months ahead?
