Internet Marketing & The Use Of Messaging Stickers

By Rob Sutter


A written piece on TechCrunch struck me as interesting because of how Facebook would potentially change their private messaging ways in great fashions. It seems so simple, though, as the change basically revolves around the usage of stickers which could be stamped onto the messages in question. I think that such additions could add their own charm but I have to wonder if these would be utilized in the long term. I'm sure those within Internet marketing can weigh in.

If you were to think that these stickers are some kind of exclusive concept, you would be wrong on the matter. Yahoo! Messenger, for example, has instituted such stickers in the past and to add to the level of charm they had, many of them had audio features tied to them. Facebook seems to be incorporating the same kind of concept, too. With only a select number of packs being free, paying for other packs may come across to audiences in different ways, considering that preferences will vary.

Facebook has always been a website that's been proud of being free of charge, which is why so many people have signed up for it in the first place. It's easily accessible and it's safe to say it wouldn't have reached that level of success otherwise. However, payments have been coming in small ways so far, especially with web games slowly gaining ground. It's tough to say but it's apparent that these stickers are going to function in similar ways, which is why I don't think everyone will take to them.

You may be curious as to what kind of audience is going to be attracted by these digital stickers. You can make the argument that children and parents are going to be most drawn to them, especially when you consider the fact that these items are perhaps some of the most child-friendly that you can come across. I'm sure that those who work in Internet marketing will be able to make conclusions of their own. Regardless of what said conclusions entail, I think that the story will become more intriguing as it progresses.

The future is somewhat cloudy as far as these web stickers go but I think that you can say the same for any upcoming entity. It's clear that these will be able to attract certain individuals but it'd be wrong to assume that everyone will be able to enjoy them the same. However, those in Internet marketing have to be able to see the benefits these stickers can have. Especially for a younger audience, these could be fun for the sake of novelty, at least.
