Social Media (Facebook, Twitter etc.)
Facebook has more than 500 million active users, 50% of active users log on every day, the average user has 130 ‘friends’, people spend over 700 billion minutes a month on Facebook.
One of the basic rules of conducting a business is to stay connected. Social community websites now give companies access to more potential customers by making themselves visible on the internet. Social community websites are a portal for organisations to express themselves! Websites like Facebook, Twitter and Myspace, offer organisations and people alike the opportunity of a steady ground to advertise themselves and their services, often to a whole new audience. Another great thing is that the cost of the publicity generated for your client and their site is minimal. The need to leverage social media for business is a no-brainer.
Inbound links from websites with high traffic volume and high page rank such as Facebook provide ‘quality’ links. So links from sites such as Facebook to your clients’ site will provide a big boost to its SEO and of course links from the client site to their Facebook page will help SEO the Facebook page.
Facebook pages offer analytics and you can view all kinds of useful data about user activity on the page, including how many ‘likes’ and comments the site received each day, demographic break-downs and much more. This data can be really useful for understanding the characteristics of the clients’ customer base, and knowing which wall posts get the best reaction.
