Business Marketing Magazine Summer 2017 January 2016 Creating Clear Businesses | Page 4

Publishers Note Publishers Note Welcome to a fabulous new year. I really love fresh starts, and we get one every single year. I thought it would be fun to make some predictions and then come back in December and see how many of them came true. So here is my list of predictions for 2016. 1. Google upgrades to the index algorithm. I think there will be 2 major upgrades. Ones that actually get their own name, like Mobilgeddon and Panda. 2. Snow at the ski resorts in Utah. Oh Ya. Ok so I prefer staying indoors during this cold season, but those around me eat, breath and sleep snow boarding. So I predict tons of snow to keep my mini me’s happy. 3. The use of digital magazines will grow in size and usefulness not only for traditional media, but as a great promotion to any type of business. Now is a great time to look into the value of using content to promote your website. 4. Blogs, Blogs, Blog. I know everyone is saying that blogs are so in the past. But my predictions is that they will become even more valueable and a whole new set of rules will emerge this year. I hope 2016 is a great year for your business. Christy
