    Oh! That’s terrible! How about the sites that are gaining high page rank? We all know that keeping our site on top is a tough job and only to learn that Pagerank is useless? that’s bad news for me, how could google be so changeable. Anyhow, thanks for sharing your insights!

    These are interesting predictions. I think mobile marketing and instagram are definitely going to continue to get bigger. Facebook is obviously huge and will continue to grow as a marketing resource. Lately I’ve been having a lot of success using some of these strategies to promote my website and getting tons of leads. I’ve been introduced to something recently that has changed my perspective of marketing on the internet and making money. Check it out! http://www.primemoneymaker.com
