    Yes,
    I have seen more Chatbots and they are getting more helpful so I think they will be more prevalent.


    I also think apps will be more important.


    Podcasts are already making ground and although they are under the radar they could surprise us and become even more popular!

    Single opt-in will become a thing of the past.


    Hi Brent Stangel,

    Some blacklist services have begun registering IPs that send campaigns to non-double opt-in subscribers (subscribers have not confirmed via a confirmation link that they really want to receive your emails).

    To ensure better delivery to our users and keep our IPs out of blacklists, from now on we will be forcing the use of double-opt-in (confirmation of registration) in all lists in Mailingboss.
    I stopped using single opt several years ago. If you won't confirm your email, I don't want you on my list.

    Local Influencer Marketing through YouTube and various other social media platforms will gain more ground this year, and already some countries have started realizing its power, and have put in place certain measures to control it, e.g. in Dubai they have introduced law that regulates the Local Influencer Marketing especially through YouTube and Instagram.

    Video is a valuable tool, one of the fastest rising stars in digital marketing is the use of live video. Part of this is due to the massive spike in streaming services, thanks to popular channels such as youtube.

      Video? Video is not a trend nor something new? How does that apply to Digital Marketing Trends In 2019?

    I'm VERY happy about Local Influencer Marketing as I'm entering into that space. There was a report on a morning news show about a teacher using VR and game development in his HS computing class with his students. Interesting stuff. Most sites have some sort of chatbot for customer support and assistance. I'm one of the few people on the planet that doesn't have a smart speaker yet. I will this year though.

    Digital Marketing is changing in every year according to users' trends. Voice Search is a new trend awaiting a Digital Marketer in 2019. I think optimizing our website for voice search will be a good practice this year.

    While comparing voice search to text search, voice queries tend to be longer. Keep this in mind, it is important for our website content to sound natural and conversational. So if we optimize our site for voice search, we could bring the website to the top of these voice queries that often return fewer results.

    Image content is the one of the valuable tool in Digital Marketing for 2019. It is an easy to digest format that will gives maximum rest to our eyes from searching a bulk content in Internet and also helps to reduce the waste of time.
    More over this generation heads down In digital medias,So image content is more beneficial to share our ideas to the customers.

Also, the goal of a forum is to discuss about a topic, not really to promote some other places to go to get information. If you want to mention such place you could share some valuable information and then tell the source... Ah...

    I think the local influencer will be the biggest trend in 2019 and beyond. We have influencers in just about every niche, but having local ones can be extremely powerful.

    For instance, if you are the influencer for "all things in your hometown" that would be a great niche.

    Just my two cents.

    Most of the trends the OP listed are interlinked in someway.

    AI, Chatbots and smart speakers are all linked as is the Influencer who does live content and leverages the bots and AI to increase reach and effect.

    Bots are seriously moving on as more features get added to services that are within reach of everyday marketers. . . just look at some of the stuff activechat is doing.

    AI is heavily part of Google Adwords and Facebook marketing and also extends into the bot development.

    Last year the topic at Traffic and Conversion was the P2P growth as in it is person to person and we see that trend continuing with LIVE CHAT.

    It might be a BOT that initiates chats but in many cases the transfer to live operator is where sales are made.

    Live video, current trends and influencers are nothing new as these things have always influenced trends from way before the internet. Why do you think old bands still tour and play live? Live is not likely to die out soon but how live is delivered might change. How people engage with live might change.

    Social proof is still strong and those that can leverage AI, bots, recorded and live content to leverage social proof are going to have greater reach than those that focus on just one channel.

    Content does need to be improved and businesses who use some of the AI type content assistants that are available are going to be cranking out better content for both their audience and the serps.

    The winners will be those who leverage the best of what they have done in the past and realise there are powerful technologies available to help them maintain their success in the future.

    OH. Payment apps. Easier and faster techniques to spend money will continue to grow and be more accepted by businesses and consumers.

    Local will continue to be prominent as mapping and local searches get used more and more.

    Speed to deliver will dominate.

    Who doesn't like speedy service?

    Best regards,

    Ozi

      Humm, well, if this is your answer to the OP I think you are missing the point, bragging about you was not the question.

      Plus, well, "value" even said three times in a row is not a marketing trend. Obviously Marketing Trends is the TOPIC of the OP and of the thread-I believe if forums still work as it's always been...

      Now, as for "sharing value" I think you've just missed that as well...

      Cheers!

    I really think that chatbots are the new thing because there are so many ways to monetize them. You can do them for yourself or for your clients. Some companies pay as much as $10,000 for one "Bot"!

    Already happening here in my country since the last 2 years.
    3 + 4 + 5
    Great speakers who are also local influencer in very specific niches who do live video or at least current news/report video about a company/individual's product that pay them to market it in their social media (mostly instagram, twitter and then youtube... while facebook is the last).

    While 1 + 2 may happen in the shape of "android apps" which is also starting the epidemic very soon.
