KEEP TABS ON CURRENT YEAR HOT EVENT TECH TRENDS

Every year technology continues to improve, bringing along benefits for businesses and event organizers. Staying on top of it all can be overwhelming at times, so check a shortlist of the hottest technology trends to spice up your events this year


Mobile, Mobile, Mobile: A must for every business

It’s the year of mobile, again. This Nielsen Mobile Ratings Report revealed that more than 15 million Australians own smartphones, along with some 12 million owning a tablet device. Plus, more and more millennials are relying on their mobile as their primary access to the internet. If your event team isn’t yet harnessing the power of mobile check-ins and ticket scanning, check out Eventbrite Neon to turn your iOS device into a mobile box office. 

To Do: Download Eventbrite Neon to get your event mobile-ready.


Periscope: If you are dabbling in video content marketing

With the emergence of new apps that enable instant broadcasting, video and live streaming is going from strength to strength. Linked to a Twitter account, Periscope is quickly gaining traction thanks to its live streaming capabilities. Event organisers and attendees themselves are now broadcasting live video of events and experiences to engage with their audience anywhere in the world. 

To Do: Download Periscope, and start broadcasting some fun summer activities to practice.

Snapchat: For that millennial audience 

Popular with the millennials, many people initially passed Snapchat off as immature and frivolous, but it’s a platform worth keeping an eye on. In fact, e-commerce giant Alibaba invested $200 million in Snapchat (in 2015), signaling that we can expect growth from this platform. 

With the introduction of ‘Live Stories’ — a feature that generates user content at a live experience — Snapchat is increasing its focus on live event and location-based coverage, which will allow designers and brands to create unique imagery for users to overlay on their images based on their location. 

To Do: Download Snapchat and familiarize yourself with Live Stories.

RFID Technology: To surprise and delight at large-scale events 

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a small electronic device that provides a unique identifier for that tag. RFID wristband technology is already in use at some major music festivals and large public events to monitor foot traffic, prevent ticket fraud, and even enhance attendee experiences with the inclusion of cashless payments and social media integration. RFID technology is set to become more accessible to SMEs. You can read more about RFID technology here.

Proximity Marketing & ‘Geo-Fencing’: To Enhance Event Experiences 

Beacon is a location-based technology which can emit a low-energy signal that can push instant messages to a dedicated app. Once a person with the app installed on their phone enters the designated zone (known as a Geo-fence), a message will appear on their phone. When placed around a venue, these devices can do everything from track attendee behavior and foot traffic, to pushing notifications such as greeting attendees to check-in or displaying promotional offers. 

Different messages can be sent depending on the physical location of the user. Examples of this location-based technology include audio tours, retail offers, and even scavenger hunts.

The Melbourne digital event Pause Fest recently used Beacon technology to improve its event management and reporting. Check out the case study here. 

To do: Read up on Beacons and how they could change your on-site event marketing

Only use one keyword that describes your blog post image very well. I hope you can understand the benefits of these tags and know how to add them.

What is Search Engine Optimization (SEO) ?


While you enter a question in any search engine and strike ‘enter’ you get all of the internet results which contain that question expression. Users ordinarily tend to visit websites that visits with the highest of this list since they understand those to become a lot of based on the question. If you’ve got ever questioned why these internet sites rank higher than the others then you should recognize that it’s because of strong web marketing technique known as Search engine optimization (SEO).

How Search Engines Works?

The initial basic truth you wish to grasp to determine SEO is that search engines like google aren’t humans. Primary, search engines crawl the internet to examine what’s there. This task is carried out by a portion of software program, known as a crawler or perhaps a spider (or Googlebot, as is which the case with Google). Spiders follow links collected from one of page to a new and index every thing they realize on their means. Having in mind how much pages on the internet (over twenty billion), it’s not feasible for a spider to visit to a web site daily merely to examine if a fresh page has came out or if A pre-existing page has already been changed, generally crawlers might not find yourself visiting your web site for a month or 2.

What you’ll have the capacity to do is to envision that of a crawler sees out of your web site. As mentioned above, crawlers aren’t humans and that they don’t see photos, Flash movies, JavaScript, casings, password-protected pages in addition to directories. You have to tell web crawlers by a robots.txt file which was read by the crawlers before fetching you site. So this the Search Engine works and regularly shows the latest updates all over the web.
