When your digital enterprise was engaged in website planning for 2013, did you make the right choices?
Did you focus on improving the user experience throughout the year by implementing a more innovative or intuitive design, or by integrating a more robust and reliable technology platform? Perhaps you invested in a better analytics solution, developed a mobile app, launched a performance marketing program for affiliates or expanded your 'Net advertising campaigns to include social or display.
2013 has certainly been a wild ride for Internet professionals. Mobile has come on strong, social media is evolving, and 'Net advertising is getting as expensive as it is efficient and effective. SEO as it was once known is all but dead (goodbye keywords) and websites of all kinds are publishing a wide variety of content on their own in the hopes of attracting new users and retaining their most loyal customers. It's a challenging time to be a Web worker, but it's also one of the most exciting in digital history.
