Let us take you on a short journey in time – two years back, to the year 2019. This year was a particularly successful year for the world of organic promotion, although there were changes in the level of mobile and separation between mobile and web (mobile browsing in front of a desktop), it shaped a new future for improved UX. It was a vital component of business growth to implement a user-friendly browsing experience and remove poor responsiveness in mobile versions. There has also been an influx of business video marketing which has proven beneficial across all areas of marketing.

Many businesses have expanded their digital activities, whether by setting up a new website that includes e-commerce online commerce or a new catalog/image site during these turbulent times of Covid-19. But very quickly and even before many businesses had time to realize their marketing plan for last year in 2020, Covid-19 came and devoured the cards for the entire business world, from the smallest to the largest corporation. Now in 2021, the trends are changing once again.

Forward thinking

This reality has caused many company owners to change direction and thinking in favor of the digital world and the possibility of selling online without the need to operate a wide support system that accompanies a telephone customer. Many businesses have also reduced their office space or simply abandoned their offices altogether which means that these funds can be put into other areas of marketing. Some business owners made a brave decision in a time of crisis, to enter the digital world, start selling online and establish another sales channel that did not exist yesterday and make a switch to ecommerce. This of course is not possible for all types of business, and therefore leaves a lot of grey areas in place for those who can’t operate in this way. The one important thing that does remain however, is SEO and organic content.

Quality provides results

Quality content articles are not written for search engines such as Google, or condensed words on the virtual page, but are intended to give real value to the surfer and so Google demands, when the intention is to create a quality content world for your customers.

Another trend that can be seen to have intensified in 2020 and seems to continue to rise in 2021, is Google's use of rich snippets of code (search snippets) in search results pages, in order to present surfers with an appropriate answer and answer as accurately as possible. Do not be left behind in terms of marking your website pages in the most relevant way. You must always ensure that you have accessibility for people such as an “About page”, a “Contact us” page, a “Product page” if applicable and create an experience that keeps users returning and adding a call to action can significantly increase conversion. The idea of 2021 is to utilize the world of technology in a smart way to make things easily accessible, concise and interesting for potential customers.
