I performed a really unscientific ballot on Twitter asking entrepreneurs who do search engine optimization and PPC if they’re apprehensive about their budgets being lower in 2023 as a result of recession (or looming recession). 23% of entrepreneurs mentioned they’re very apprehensive, 37% mentioned they’re considerably apprehensive and 40% mentioned they aren’t apprehensive.
Right here is the ballot:
Are you apprehensive about cuts to your search advertising (search engine optimization and PPC) budgets in 2023 as a result of recession?

I think some who should not apprehensive are those that management their very own price range or simply reside an awsome life with out fear.
I additionally posted this ballot on Mastodon however it solely obtained 27 votes, and there, entrepreneurs are extra optimistic. Solely 7% are very apprehensive, 33% are considerably apprehensive and 59% should not apprehensive in any respect.
I personally imagine the following a number of months might be tremendous laborious for advertising budgets however time will inform. I’m not a fortune teller and never a monetary skilled, in any respect.
