Analysts predicts new pay feature for Facebook

As Facebook plans to offer stocks to the public, analysts are weighing in on the future of the popular social media site often employed in legal internet marketing campaigns. 

Facebook hopes to earn $5 billion when its stock goes public but will this cause some changes to their free service?  Fox news asked one Australian analyst what they thought we could expect from Facebook. 
Analyst Foad Fadaghi said that the influence of investors and shareholders would inevitably change the way Facebook conducts business in the future. 

Fadghi believes that advertisements will become more invasive and content driven as investors push the company to generate more revenue. Though you already see numerous ads on Facebook, they don’t generate as much advertising income as other sites. 

Facebook has the benefit of mass exposure which is why legal internet marketing firms use the social media platform to generate business. Users play a lot of games and even purchase items on the site so Facebook may offer a premium subscriber option. 

Fadaghi also told Fox that users can expect better mobile apps. The current web platform for Facebook is much better than the iPad.  And the growing demand for mobile access will likely compel them to improve those apps. 

No one can be certain what the future of Facebook hold but it will likely continue to play a role in our personal lives and legal internet marketing
