Net Neutrality Was Appealed This Week What is Net Neutrality and what does it mean now that it has been appealed? These are good questions and from talking with people this topic generally goes over their heads or they don't know enough to have an interest. But, as much as we all depend on the internet and searching for data, keeping the net neutral is important and we should take it one step further with pure search algorithms, rather than paid search. A neutral net is when you go a website and all content is delivered unrestricted by the internet service provider (ISP) and only throttled by the web-servers themselves. Removing or appealing that ability, some websites may not be delivered by different ISP's at all or equally. Searching by any of the top providers like Google are not a pure search function either. The results you receive are mostly, if not exclusively from paid for search words auctioned to advertisers. Having a great domain name is essential to reach through search engines with organic traffic. There needs to be a campaign for the freedom of information and the ability to find it. I know that I like to find exactly what I am searching for and not get stuck with whichever advertiser would like to get in front of me. There are a couple of things in play that have yet to come to light. The FCC has sold the lower end of the radio frequency spectrum to the big wireless providers in what is called the Repack pushing HDTV to UHF. They are paying for this migration which will occur over the next 5 years. This will allow ATSC v3.0 to roll out which will allow broadcast TV to hit your cell phone and other wireless devices. Just when you though TV was dead it will coming back with a vengeance. There's a lot of competition to get in front of your eyes. From the ads on the pump at the gas station to grabbing the eyes of your child on a classroom screen, these powerful groups know the value of programming. And not programming like writing code, programming as it refers to conditioning behavior. About the image, just thought the owl feet were cool.

Black Friday retail sales are traditional in store purchases and Cyber Monday is the online sales that occur the following Monday. Industry analysts tally up these figures in an effort to create a mock competition between these two markets mechanisms, but the real take away is that online sales, on Cyber Monday and for the whole shopping season, is expected to increase an estimated 21 percent. With the overall retail business declining, as a business owner you should be actively enhancing your organization for capturing more customers via your online presence no matter what industry you are in. And, don't neglect tuning your site for tablet and mobile devices.

While searching for tech trends and investments opportunities I discovered an article from Deloitte Insights about the technology growth in unstructured data. Unstructured data is essentially chaos, but if you're able to show relations between data elements, it's no longer unstructured and helps build a better picture of what's occurring. Commodities make a good example. Analyzing wheat yields without rain fall or soil erosion factored in, leaves a lot of questions when interpreting results. By adding more variables to the equation, the results are calculated with greater accuracy. Tapping into this vast amount of information that is becoming available from everywhere on the web, dark and deep web included, (data that is not currently included or information sitting idly), analytics experts can gain much greater insight into customer behavior and market movement.
The explosive growth of IoT (Internet of Things) is expected to surpass 44 Zettabytes in 2020. That's 44 trillion gb of information, which is 10 times more than today, and hopefully will be used to make better decisions (before the AI bots make them for us).

I have been looking at domain name predictions that were made in 2016 to measure how well the analysts are keeping up with actual market movements in 2017. Being now that we're enter into 3rd quarter, it's good time for a halftime report. Overall, the results are on track and moving in the right direction. It's a difficult area to measure as most sales figures are not reported and have NDA's attached to them, but corporate purchases are up and companies are strategically placing themselves for additional accessibility into mobile and online services as workforce's are more distributed along with trying to increase their customer base.

Time to get back to business. Hope everyone had a great holiday and is ready to work. The two times a year that I take a deeper look at business trends and economic forecasts are at the end of the year and at the end of 2nd quarter. End of the year is more a reflective time for some reason, like after the game. End of 2nd quarter is like taking inventory during half time while there's still time to change the results before year end, mid game.
No one that runs their own business, or is directly responsible for one, can ever really take their mid off the game. Sure you might go on vacation and spend time with your family, but you just can't help thinking about what you have going on. Sometimes it helps to get disconnected, a fresh perspective, see from a different angle and get some rest, but successful people rarely take their eye off the ball if ever. You love what you do and you know your competition is constantly grinding. So while relaxing, I try to take a closer look at what my competition is doing right and measure what's working for me.
One of the things I do at these two points is look at the big picture. Reading through economic forecasts for different industries and countries can give you great insight to why your efforts aren't measuring up to predictions or worse, the numbers are climbing up and you have no idea why. According to The World Economic Forum, Forbes and The Balance to name a few, the economic outlook for the US is strong and set for steady growth.
No matter what business you're in, investing in yourself is never a bad choice. Educate yourself, educate your people and increase the advertising budget. Hope you are off to a great year, game on.
Happy 4th of July everyone. (This is a scheduled post) I'm taking a weeks vacation and I hope you are as well.
