Or more importantly, how will people be getting online in 2011?

If you’re planning to get an online business kickstarted, be sure it doesn’t burn out at the starting line.  Think long-term strategic brand management, and remember you are growing your presence over time.  To remain viable, a site must grow, and the inbound links must grow, each leveraging the other to create a kind of lattice across the net.

Long term online presence.  That’s kind of the point!

Musicians know this well.  Artists, entrepreneurs, marketers, and promoters know the strongest natural growth patterns in life and business are fractal.  This is also true for the internet.  Growing a web presence along specific keywords is the creation of a semantic web. As the implications of social search trickle down into Google’s search and Bing’s landing pages, over time that SEO structure becomes a tie-in for social media presence in real time.  Real time web is coming, mobile networking is coming, and old, table-based sites are going to be left out cold by 2011.
