No wonder that native advertising has been on the rise for the last several years, and you can bet it will dominate even more in 2019!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Apart from looking more natural, seamlessly-infused ads show that effort has been put in and there\u2019s factual care about the user experience, or as they call it today &#8211;\u00a0customer-centric approach, which is where people begin to feel understood. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><b>Voice Search<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ever since the introduction of internet into our lives, the challenge of improving the human-to-device communicational speed has been crucial for technological development and our ability to apply it according to our needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/y9Tia8PxQMlhK\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"Internet Speak To Me GIF\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Going from computer- and qwerty keyboards to predictive typing on touch screens &#8211; we are now entering the era of voice search!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Human\u2019s most natural form of communication is now available for web-surfing, and soon &#8211; organizing your whole life. The new technology steadily occupies new areas\u00a0of aplication and soon voice assistants will be integrated into virtually all equipment and\u00a0software.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The very nature of search request is changing already, and next year will be vital for marketers to pick up the trend and harvest the benefits from it!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Instagram \u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Much as the social media networks\u00a0are an awesome communicational tool, the truth is that to the digital marketing industry they are also heavenly-sent natural audiences\u2019 aggregators, and it so happens to be that Instagram is the most engaging one currently, turning from an unpretentious photo &amp; video sharing service into one of the fastest-growing advertising platforms virtually overnight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Facebook keeps bouncing from one trouble to another, constantly inventing new levels of\u00a0regulations in their latest attempts to save the face, marketers couldn\u2019t be happier with IG\u2019s daily business-focused updates and all the\u00a0effort to sooth down the merge of digital\u00a0retail\u00a0and social interaction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Influencer marketing<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/8zjUHaJ9fjAVG\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"Mad Men Marketing GIF\" \/><\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, reaching a targeting audience is just the\u00a0tip of the multi-storey iceberg of user conversion. In order for an ad to really strike the hearts of those it is aimed at, we still have to refer to the Aristotle\u2019s famous trio of persuasion, and while \u2018<em>logos<\/em>\u2019 (appeal to logics) and \u2018<em>pathos<\/em>\u2019 (appeal to emotion) naturally lie in the very product description and your advertising angle, the \u2018<em>ethos<\/em>\u2019 (appeal to ethics) part can only be gained through obtaining trust and respect to the source of information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This where influencer marketing takes the stand. Yes, recruiting celebrities for promotion isn\u2019t a revolutionary practice, as various parfum and beauty brands have been using it since what seems like forever. Nonetheless, this year our industry invested heavily into influence marketing, and 2019 is looking to furtherly uphold the trend. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Global consumerism pushing E-commerce (&amp; Dropshipping)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>If you ask anyone what is the main activity the world is preoccupied with at the moment it wouldn\u2019t take an Einstein to point in the direction of commerce.
