Video remains one of the most powerful tools in digital marketing. It quickly conveys emotions, simplifies complex messages, and works effectively on any platform. But as always, AI is changing everything, so we need to adapt. Today, video is a tool for interaction, personalization, and building trust. So, let's take note of the important video marketing trends in 2026 so we don't fall behind. YouTube and TikTok – data sources for AI YouTube and TikTok have long gone beyond entertainment. Today, they are full-fledged information hubs that form some of the most valuable data arrays for multimodal AI systems. Algorithms analyze videos not only by subtitles or descriptions, but also by metadata and, more importantly, by audience behavior. Comments, likes, shares, and even pauses in viewing provide an accurate picture of user sentiment, new trends, and requests that have not...

Content marketing and changes in how it works are much greater and more profound than we think. That's why we've created a second part of our article on content marketing trends in 2026. Read the first part here! Let's learn together and get to work. There's little time and a lot of work to do! Email and social media instead of search The battle for zero-visit visibility is our reality, but there is a nuance. It's still not a click on a website, which marketers are constantly fighting for. That's why brands that have already experienced a drop in organic traffic from search will start to invest more actively in channels of direct contact with their audience. First and foremost, in email marketing and social media. As Vova Feldman, CEO of Freemius, notes: If Google is sending you less traffic,...

Today, direct contact with a brand is delayed: first impressions are formed through AI responses, snippets of reviews, and third-party mentions across various channels. Trust is partly beyond the company's direct control and is read by users long before they click. At this point, the role of artificial intelligence becomes much more significant: the image is not simply displayed — it is interpreted, aggregates reputation, is retold in other people's words, and highlights recurring patterns in feedback and mentions. Brand reputation goes beyond the role of a marketing consequence and becomes part of the first contact. AI reads and scales all signals simultaneously, making the distinction between promotion and reputation functionally irrelevant. How AI affects brand trust At the level of audience interaction, the changes affect not just one process, but the entire architecture of contact. These are not point...

Content marketing always tracks user behavior, which is constantly changing. In the past, we searched for information and clicked on “blue links,” which meant that content marketers optimized texts for search results. User behavior is constantly changing and has done so again in 2026 due to the growing popularity of AI tools. Millions of users are already searching for ideas, products, and everything else through ChatGPT, Perplexity, or AI Overviews. This means that marketers must adapt to the new realities. We have compiled the new content marketing trends that will be relevant in 2026. Let's explore them together! Trend: Zero-visit visibility will be a key factor in 2026 Experts have already predicted this trend and pointed out that “zero-click experiences will become the majority of users' online paths.” And the numbers confirm this. Today, despite the fact that Google processes...

What worked yesterday is most likely dead today. It is more difficult to attract an audience, methods are outdated, and governments are introducing new restrictions. Artificial intelligence is also becoming both a competitor and an ally. So what should we do? Let's find out together! Audiences want video, not text Users are less likely to read long texts and more likely to consume short video content. This also applies to advertising: text teasers are losing out to dynamic videos on almost all platforms. TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts are becoming the main sources of traffic. Classic landing pages with a “wall of text” are gradually being replaced by interactive formats — mini-games, quizzes, and storytelling in stories. Even in messengers, users are more likely to choose voice messages and video responses instead of text. Traffic has become fast, superficial, and...

How to understand where to move in social networks to achieve success? Learn research and statistics, analyze trends and draw conclusions that will be relevant for your business. This is what any marketer will tell you and spend a lot of time on. Good news! We have already done it for you. So, let's share the insights! Trend #1. Video remains king No surprises here. Video tops the list of trends again. TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, as well as video formats on LinkedIn and Threads have virtually become equal in popularity. This means one thing. Video content has become the priority format for most platforms. Short videos have long proven their effectiveness. They help to quickly attract attention, engage new audiences, and scale reach. At the same time, long formats have not disappeared. Moreover, platforms are gradually expanding the...

Imagine a simple situation. A user visits your website. You have three seconds to keep them there. Not a minute to read the product description or five minutes to study the benefits. Exactly three seconds. And in those first moments, the decision is made not by logic, rational analysis, or common sense, but by pure visual perception. Research confirms this unequivocally: 94% of first impressions of a website are directly related to its design. At the same time, 75% of users evaluate a company's reliability solely based on the appearance of its website. These are not abstract figures from presentations — this is the reality in which any online business operates every day. Design is not about “beautiful” or “ugly.” It is a language of communication. It is a tool that either builds a strong bridge of trust between the...

According to recent observations and research, the marketing funnel is becoming a more flexible system due to changes in buyer behavior and new technologies. It is becoming longer due to multichannel marketing and user personalization, but at the same time it brings higher sales and loyalty. Many experts argue that businesses with cyclical approaches, such as the Loop model, achieve better results through long-term customer engagement, so let's take a closer look at this. What is a marketing funnel? A marketing funnel is a model of the buyer's journey from first contact to purchase and clear loyalty. It includes concepts such as TOFU (top of funnel), MOFU (middle of funnel), BOFU (bottom of funnel), and the post-sale stage for repeat interactions. The marketing funnel is not linear: customers “jump” between communication channels, go back, and may pause their interest in...
