Online Marketing Strategy

A recent survey of 600 U.S. and Canadian small to medium-sized business owners and their employees has revealed that 57% do not have an SEO strategy – and 23% have no plans to create one this year. The Pollfish survey commissioned by UpCity found that just 44% of businesses currently have an SEO strategy in place and 34% have made it a priority to do so in 2022. These findings are surprising coming off the back of nearly two years of pandemic-related economic turmoil and uncertainty for businesses, although the relatively small sample size is worth noting. Internet traffic grew by 40% globally in 2020 as consumers' informational needs and shopping behaviors changed dramatically due to lockdowns, fear, and restrictions on businesses. Search interest in SEO spiked early on in the pandemic to its highest-ever level as businesses scrambled to get discovered by customers suddenly searching for nearby solutions for food delivery, online banking and healthcare appointments, home off...

The 20 Internet Giants That Rule the Web (1998-Today) With each passing year, an increasingly large segment of the population no longer remembers images loading a single pixel row at a time, the earsplitting sound of a 56k modem, or the early domination of web portals. Many of the top websites in 1998 were news aggregators or search portals, which are easy concepts to understand. Today, brand touch-points are often spread out between devices (e.g. mobile apps vs. desktop) and a myriad of services and sub-brands (e.g. Facebook's constellation of apps). As a result, the world's biggest websites are complex, interconnected web properties. The visualization above, which primarily uses data from ComScore's U.S. Multi-Platform Properties ranking, looks at which of the internet giants have evolved to stay on top, and which have faded into internet lore. America Moves Online For millions of curious people the late '90s, the iconic AOL compact disc was the key that ope...

Roughly 25 years ago, Google started its business as a simple and straightforward search engine. The startup swiftly captured a dominant market share and branched out into other businesses, including online advertising and video streaming. Google is a leading player in all of these markets today. This brings in a yearly revenues of hundreds of billions of dollars, an amount that continues to go up at a rapid pace. At the same time, however, complaints from copyright holders have grown as well. To deal with these complaints, Google's parent company Alphabet has implemented a wide variety of complimentary anti-piracy measures.

In its yearly "Out-of-Cycle Review of Notorious Markets", the United States Trade Representative (USTR) lists a few dozen websites said to be involved in piracy or counterfeiting. The overview is largely based on input from copyright industry groups, including the RIAA and MPA, that submitted their recommendations late last year. According to USTR, the annual overview aims to motivate the private sector and foreign governments to reduce piracy. To that end, the list identifies sites and services that reportedly engage in, facilitate, turn a blind eye to, or benefit from piracy or counterfeiting. These targets traditionally include popular piracy portals such as well-known torrent sites and streaming portals. However, in recent years we have also seen hosting companies, advertisers, and e-commerce platforms being added. Torrent Sites, Cyberlockers and Streaming Portals This year's overview is a mixed bag again. As expected, the USTR mentions torrent sites such as ...
