Today, The Federal Communications Commision, led by Chairman Ajit Pai, decided to remove Obama-era consumer protections and regulations on the internet. You may have heard on the news in recent months that Net Neutrality was going to be repealed. مواقع رهان Let’s discuss what exactly Net Neutrality was, what it did, and what it going away means for you and your business’ website.
What is (was) Net Neutrality?
Net Neutrality is the basic principle that prohibits internet service providers like AT&T, Comcast and Verizon from speeding up, slowing down or blocking any content, applications or websites you want to use.
In 2015, millions of activists pressured the Federal Communications Commission to adopt historic Net Neutrality rules that keep the internet free and open — allowing people to share and access information of their choosing without interference.
These rules were put in place in late 2015 as a way to prevent the internet companies from slowing down or blocking access to sites that can’t pay them a fee. As a response to consumers “cutting the cord” and getting access to content like Netflix rather than through cable, ISPs were losing billions.
So now with Net Neutrality knocking on Death’s door, all of the internet providers now have the power to charge the consumer AND the websites more money to access the necessary websites they need for work and entertainment. Those that do not comply, might be lost on the web unable to access those sites without paying massive fees and charges.
What Does This Mean For Your Business?
Let’s say you are selling a product and that product needs to be advertised online. شرح 1xbet Your options are fairly limitless right now, you can run pre-roll ads on YouTube, banner ads on Facebook or search ads on Google. Without Net Neutrality, the access that consumers have to view those websites might be severely impacted and thus lower the eyes on your ads.
If you run a website for your business, Comcast might send you a letter saying that you are going to be charged to keep your website on the “preferred” internet package, otherwise it will be blocked. You get the same letter from Verizon, AT&T etc… Eventually it becomes too much of a hassle to run your website because it costs more to operate than you get in return from online purchases and enquiries.
It’s thanks to Net Neutrality that small businesses and entrepreneurs have been able to thrive online. سباق الحصان Without Net Neutrality, internet companies will exploit their gatekeeper position and destroy the internet’s fair and level playing field.
Now What?
The future of Net Neutrality now falls on the hands of Congress and the courts, make sure your voice is heard:

As I opened my inbox this morning, it was more obvious to me than ever that Black Friday has already started. موقع قمار اون لاين “BLACK FRIDAY SNEAK PEEK” and “LAST CHANCE DEALS” are just a few of marketers attempts at FOMO-inducing headlines (or Fear Of Missing Out for all my non-acronym fluent friends). Black Friday used to be just Friday, but with retailers and marketers alike pushing consumers to buy buy buy, Black Friday now begins Thursday afternoon for many stores. Furthermore, Cyber Monday began this week, instead of the Monday following Thanksgiving. What’s the deal? And no – I’m not talking saving money here!
Starting consumer savings before Black Friday means retailers could get a head start into the “black,” or be financially solvent (if they weren’t already). Unfortunately, many uneducated consumers do not know that Black Friday is NOT the best day of the year to get the best prices on items, and neither is Cyber Monday. Clothing is hit-or-miss and often you get much better deals at end of season sales or through retailers such as 6PM.com (Zappos’s clearance website, my credit card’s most hated website). In most cases, there are great deals on electronics for Black Friday, but the electronics you can get the best deals on come and go in trends. This year, for example, the PlayStation 4 is rumored to be one of the hot items that you can get the best deal on. Therefore, before you rush out to camp out outside of Best Buy or hit the mall at 5a.m., you should do your research. Take advantage of retailers who post Black Friday “sneak peeks” on their website or through e-blasts, check social media, and check sites such as RetailMeNot.com for additional coupons and savings. Amazon.com and previously mentioned 6PM.com are my secret weapons for finding lower-priced anything. In the meantime, since you’re already probably surfing the Internet for holiday deals, check out some of these facts about Black Friday and Cyber Monday:
- In 2013, New York City had the most people shopping online during Black Friday, followed by Atlanta, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., and Chicago (source: Entrepreneur).
- 1 out of 3 Americans plan to shop on Black Friday (source: Entrepreneur). Hopefully the other 2/3 have more sane plans. موقع مراهنات 365
- Up 18% from 2012, over $1.9 billion was spent in online Black Friday sales (source: Entrepreneur). That’s a lot of Chipotle burritos!
- Surprisingly enough, shopping in stores at 10am or later was the most popular time, while 1-3am was the least popular (source: Entrepreneur). Glad to see people have at least some common sense.
- Online Black Friday sales peaked around 9am in 2013, and Google searches between 8am-noon, then again from 4pm-7pm (source: Entrepreneur)
- Amazon.com is the most popular Black Friday retailer with 7.7 unique visitors, followed by Wal-Mart at 3.5 million and then Best Buy at 2.75 million (source: National Retail Federation)
- Clocking in at 87%, the most popular Black Friday purchase were electronics, followed by clothing at 71% (source: Entrepreneur)
- Black Friday shoppers referred from Pinterest spent 77% more money per order than those referred from Facebook (source: BusinessInsider)
- Conversely, shoppers referred from Facebook converted into sales at almost 4x the rate of Pinterest (source: BusinessInsider)
- In 2012, Wal-Mart had the most Twitter mentions at 77.5% of the voice, but 4:1 of those mentions were negative (source: BusinessInsider). This is not surprisingly, considering the types of incidents that are reported year-after-year at Wal-Mart.
