What Trends Will Shape the Social Media Market Through 2029 and Beyond?
In a bid to increase their revenue streams, social media firms are turning their platforms into avenues for e-commerce, trading in goods and services. This trend correlates with the rising acceptance and use of online shopping and e-commerce driven by a sharp rise in internet and smartphone usage. For illustration, the U.S. Census Bureau, a principal entity responsible for producing population and economic figures in the US, reported that retail e-commerce sales in the Q2 of 2023 reached a grand total of $269.5 billion. This indicates a 7.7% increase or 1.4% rise from the Q2 figures of 2022. Using consumer social behavior, geographic location, and demographics, social media platforms enable targeted advertising. For example, Instagram has integrated a 'Shopping' tab onto its 'Explore' page. As per 2022 data from Instagram for Business, 44% of people use Instagram's shopping features, including the Shop tag, on a weekly basis. Furthermore, social media platforms like Snapchat and Twitter have included shopping adverts within their platforms to stimulate direct purchases.
