Online marketing trends in India are evolving rapidly, to keep up with and cater to over 806 million internet users and 491 million active social media identities in the Indian online space. Brands are reaching more eyes than ever before . The Indian audience is diverse, mobile-first, and time-conscious. Here are the trends shaping how Indian brands will connect in 2025, and how Webibm helps partners stay ahead.

1. Conversational Commerce on Messaging Apps

Indian consumers spend hours daily on WhatsApp, Instagram, and Telegram. The ease of access is what prompted a study to find out that nearly 80 million Indians will expect conversational support via these channels. A simple chatbot is a thing of the past as brands now want to add AI driven analysis and response management that supports and guides consumers for a smoother experience. Webibm builds intelligent flows that feel natural and help users take action- like scheduling a call or checking out.

2. Regional Language and Voice Search

India’s next billion users are internet-first but prefer their regional language. Google reports that searches in Indian languages are growing over 2.5 times faster than English .
In fact , as per a report, nearly  50% of Indian shoppers will use voice search by 2025 . Webibm ensures your content is voice and vernacular ready, optimised for spoken queries, regional keywords, and conversational style.

3. Short-Form Video and Live Commerce

Short online videos are a daily staple. By 2025, over 3.65 billion people worldwide will be consuming video content regularly . In India, 93% of brands plan to increase their short-form video budget .
Webibm develops snackable clips, instructional shorts, and live-commerce sessions that capture attention and drive traffic back to your platform.

4. Voice and Visual Search Optimization

Voice and visual search are reshaping discovery. Smart speakers and apps like Google Lens are widely used in India 
Webibm optimizes your site, product listings, and images so users can discover you with just a photo or a voice query.

5. First-Party Data and Privacy-First Marketing

The way user data is processed is changing rapidly. As regulations are tightening, third party cookies are losing their grip and making way for clear, consent-driven, privacy-first data analytics driven by first party and zero party data as the cornerstone assets. 

Webibm builds consent-forward campaigns that balance performance with compliance, helping you build trust and collect data that truly belongs to you.

6. AI-Powered Personalisation and Automation

AI and automation are the backbone of modern marketing. Rising beyond basic recommendations, AI now supports hyper-personalisation and predictive workflows.
Webibm uses tools that help build a thorough and personalised brand experience, that not only feels effortless to the users but is also connected well to user intent.  LLMs, email automation, and dynamic content are some of the tools we wield to make this happen.

The influence of local voices is growing.

They deliver the kind of value, engagement and ROI that even celebrity campaigns cannot. .
Webibm sources partnerships that feel genuine, measurable, and aligned with your brand ethos.

8. Sustainability and Purpose Messaging
