SEO strategy will need to change this year, and brands will have to focus more on brand awareness.      

Stories will be able to bring about engagement

Stories are visible both on Facebook and Instagram. Over the course of this year, these stories will incorporate more features. Brands will start sharing a lot of microcontent in the form of stories, thereby engaging the customer more.

The explosion in vernacular content-

Internet in India is available across all mobile networks and at fairly low rates. This will lead to an increased demand for content in different languages. This will need to figure in a brand’s digital marketing strategy.

Voice interaction

Indians are already familiar with Apple’s Siri, Google Home and Amazon Alexa. The use of voice interaction to do all jobs is likely to define digital marketing in 2019.

This year, a number of brands will look to experiment with their brand strategies and come up with innovation in promotions. Spearheading new formats will help brands take lead in the competition.
