Now & Then: Looking Back at 10 Years of Internet Evolution

Now & Then- looking back on 10 years of internet evolution

Have you heard the news? TrustWorkz is celebrating our first double digit birthday! We’ve come a long way over the last ten years, and so has the internet. There have been highs (Remember when the Ice Bucket Challenge raised $115 million for ALS research?), lows (RIP Grumpy Cat), and plenty of that ineffable weirdness (What does the fox say?) that can only come from the world wide web.   

Join us for a scroll back through time via our infographic retrospective of the internet from 2011 to 2021.  

Of course, the internet isn’t all memes and cat videos. It’s also a crucial component of any modern marketing strategy. At TrustWorkz, we keep our ear to the ground for all of the latest developments in digital marketing so we can help our clients thrive online and off. 

If you’re looking for an Atlanta digital marketing agency to help your business grow and evolve in the next year and the next decade, give us a shout
