Internet Marketing Bubble

    Is the Internet Marketing Bubble or I say selling products on the web bursting as I see activity on major forums down like in Sales or fresh sustainable products launches. Where is the money going? I think the money is fast flushing into Equity and Managed Capital Funds around USA and Europe.
    The bubble built in 2008-2011 due to global Equity and Banking crisis? And money for few years flowed into internet ventures? I see retail companies are also making sustainable profits, office rentals stable during past 6 months in Asia. The emerging opportunities are in Mobile Apps but will have to see how long it last before IOT becomes coming big thing.

    Where is what money going? It's very difficult to follow anything you've said here.

    A lot of that activity has moved to social media like Facebook, Twitter, etc.

    On the forums that I was on before I saw that they have come to a stand still, for the most part. Entire sections with the latest posts being almost a year old. Kind of sad.

    At the time I didn't join here, as it was kind of slow while the others were booming. Roles seem to have reversed, and, might very well again.
    But as far as the IM bubble bursting, I doubt it. It may have slowed since it's hey day after the economy crapped out in 08, as it was after 08 that I made the majority of my money.

    Just wait for the next economic downturn and people will come rushing back. It won't take much of a down turn to have people coming back either, the hard times people faced are still a pretty fresh memory.

    Heck, the Saudis might get ticked with the things that are happening with that report and start another oil embargo like Carter faced, and people will be flooding back.

    Plus there are IM markets that haven't been tapped yet that will be coming in to play more and more.

    2008-2009 is where I made the most money, the Internet Marketing is whole different industry these days, but I don't see it completely trending downwards. There's always a new opportunity out there, it's just more competitive these days.

    Where is the money for funding of all the Startups all over the world coming from? VC and Angel funds, even when these companies like big ecommerce in India don't make profit yet get several hundred million USD in funding each year. All the money which use to be exchanged in small deals over internet is now going into Equity or people investing in various kind of funds and few hundred companies getting this money. Look at sensex of India is now at 28,xxx from 15,xxx in 2012-2013..... all money from small ventures going into big companies at-least in India.
