Even better and more effective would be for them to allocate resources and to create more short video ads every month/quarter and post them on their social media channels as per the content strategy in place. Short video ads have much greater engagement levels and keep ROI and KPIs at optimal levels. They also help to entice users and have a higher retention rate. When done correctly and professionally, they are impactful and leave a lasting impression. Something every business would need and want to have in order to stay ahead of competitors.

Current sites are beginning to add dimensionality in a more immersive way, pulling users into cyberspace by adding animations, full-page effects, and multi-layered illustrations. In 2023, we expect to see a resurgence in the popularity of 3D illustrations in web design. With flat illustration styles dominating trends in recent years, 3D design has become a way for projects and sites to stand out from the crowd.
