The online platform is an ever changing arena where marketers need to keep abreast with the latest and trending marketing ideas. Many things change every year, and 2014 is just like any other financial year. Although there are many paid advertising trends that one can employ, only a few of them seems to be more effective this year than the others. Mobile internet advertisements: The app world is a booming business especially with the wake of smartphones. All platforms, (Windows Phone, IOS, Blackberry and Android) support apps that can be used for advertisements.



Social Networks: Social Networks have become great places to advertise in the year 2014. Not only do social networks allow you to reach a ton of people at once at an exponential rate, but they also give you the opportunity to do so at a fraction of the cost of most other advertising methods. That is why advertising via social networks is so beneficial.

Video marketing: Video marketing continues to take roots this year. This is because audio-visual advertisements sell information much faster than written articles. Video marketing is however more expensive than content writing, meaning one has to dig deeper into the pockets. Realize that content is king, so do not rush this important step in the process.

YouTube: One of the biggest changes in online advertising has been led by Google and YouTube. Because YouTube has started a program which allows small and medium sized businesses to create "mini commercials" for their products and services, the landscape has changed for good. YouTube gives small and medium sized businesses a convenient and effective paid advertising option to reach a ton of customers.

Ad Tracking: Product and service performance analysis is another evolving technique this year. Many people today would want to know how their advertisement campaigns are progressing, and hindering factors behind the same. Ad tracking has therefore taken root in the quest to ensure your marketing ideas are fruitful all the times. These are only a few of the latest online paid advertising and marketing trends in 2014. Understanding how these trends can be applied to increase profitability will make it possible for you to become a better marketer than before.
