Why Facebook Matters

•   Facebook has over 750 million users

•   Facebook is now used by 1 in every 13 people on earth

•   Over 700 Billion minutes a month are spent on Facebook

•   20 million Facebook applications are installed per day

•   Over 200 million people access Facebook via their mobile phone

The Facebook Breakdown
EdgeRank:
Facebook’s News Feed Algorithm

•   The news feed only displays a subset of the stories generated by your
    friends

•   Every item that shows up in your News Feed is an “object”

•   If your brand has an “object” in the News Feed (i.e. status update,
    application, comment), whenever another user interacts with that
    object they’re creating an “Edge.”

•   An object is more likely to show up in your News Feed if people you
    know have been interacting with it recently.
The Anatomy of EdgeRank

Each Edge has three components important to Facebook’s algorithm:

• Affinity Score: This is the relationship between the user and the
  “objects” creator. If you send your friend a lot of Facebook messages
  and check their profile often, then you’ll have a higher affinity score.

• Edge Authority: There’s a weight given to each type of “Edge.” A
  comment likely has more importance than a “like.”

• Time: The older the “Edge” the less relevant the content.

Multiply these factors for each “Edge” then add the “Edge” scores up
and you have an Object’s EdgeRank.
Social Media Marketing & Facebook

      with your branded content?

    advance. Many also allow you to geo-target posts in local languages
    and time zones.

    customer service escalation and workflow, tracking and deletion of
    comments, and archiving.

Social Plugins for your Website & Fan Page


•   Like Button: One-click share functionality

•   Send Button: Allows your users to Facebook
    message your content directly to their friends.

•   Recommendations: Gives users personalized
    suggestions for pages on your site they might like.

•   Live Stream: Lets your users share activity and comments in real-time as
    they interact during a live event.

•   Facepile: Displays the Facebook profile pictures of users who have liked
    your page or have signed up for your site.
Don’t Forget About SEO

•   Push Your Brand Name: The names of your Facebook page, custom URL,
    and custom tabs are of utmost importance. Search engines see these titles
    in H1 tags.

•   Links: As is the case with traditional SEO, getting links to your Facebook
    page and custom tabs is extremely beneficial. Links are like
    recommendations.

•   Optimize Custom Tabs: Tabs and tab content are given more weight then
    wall posts (or streaming apps that we mentioned earlier). Likes are a
    significant ranking factor in Bing. Google doesn’t have access to Facebooks
    API but Bing does.

•   Optimize Your Video: Video titles are heavily weighted. So make sure
    you’re giving your videos good titles, both on Facebook and on sites like
    YouTube and Vimeo.
Cost Per Like (CPL)

Facebook Fan Acquisition or Cost Per Like (CPL)
There are some questions regarding the best strategy for Facebook media buys
used to promote branding and increasing the “likes” of a fan page.

    • Target Audience: Is it better to go with a broad with a greater reach or
      narrow reach to a small demographic with a high affinity for a product.

    • Should you design copy with click through rate (CTR) in mind?

    • Since there is little effort in “liking” a product or brand, is it safe to assume
      a user who clicks on a Facebook ad will likely also “like” your fan page.

What we think?
High CTRs doesn’t ensure high CVRs (conversions) if you are interested
in conversions (which can be identified as “likes” here) start out with a targeted
campaign. If you are interested in branding with minimal CVRs a broader reach is
the way to go.
Tips for Managing a Like
Acquisition Campaign on Facebook
•   Start by targeting audiences that have a high affinity for your product.

•   Build out broadly targeted audiences to get additional traffic but keep your
    maximum bids low, this will help to scale the build outs of your campaign.

•   Build upon on segments you know work well
     • (i.e. if a campaign to target women age 25-35 is performing well,
        expand that to reach to age 45)

•   Focus on improving ad copy for campaigns that have a low CTR but high
    CVR.

•   Leverage Sponsored Stories; an inherently viral toolsthat can help you
    acquire Fans at a significantly lower CPL.

•   CTRs of ads on Facebook will drop if they are not changed regularly, test
    new ad copy and keep in queue for when CTRs begin to drop.
What are Sponsored Stories?

Case Study: Contiki Vacations’
“Get on the Bus” Promotion
Case Study: Contiki Vacations’
“Get on the Bus” Promotion

• Contiki, a travel firm that caters to the 18-35 year-old demo, dropped
  a promotion encouraging fans to create their perfect vacation.

• The winner got one of eight vacations worth around $25,000.

• The “Get on the Bus” promo challenged fans to get a crew with four
  friends together, choose a trip and then try to get as many votes as
  possible in order to win.

• The promotion garnered 8,000 Likes for Contiki.

• Generated more than 10 million ad impressions through Facebook
  shares, Likes, tweets and blog coverage.
Google+ Fact Sheet


 • 3 most important features for business:

     • Sparks(what’s trending),
     • Circles (allows for segmentation of content),
     • Hangouts (chat live with up to 10 ppl and stream it)

 • Has the potential to be more authoritative then a Facebook “like”

 • Google+ is now open to brands
     • www.marcelmedia.com/how-to-create-a-google-page-for-your-business/

 • Google+ is not another social destination site and will continue to
   enhance synergy between search and social

 • Google+1 can currently be embedded into any owned digital asset
Google+ & Social Search

•   Currently Google does not have access to Facebook data, so it is
    possible a “+1” could be more authoritative then a “like.”

•   Circles provide marketers with the ability to segment their network out
    into a social database that will allow for hyper customization and
    targeted messaging.

•   Integration: a user could “+1” a paid search ad, then the brands
    Google + page appears and user is prompted to join the brands page,
    they receive rich, branded, and highly targeted content, and ultimately
    that brand will have an influence on that users search experience.

•   “+1” generates a “earned” impression and your sites content will
    benefit from Google’s indexing of these social search signals.
Takeaway Points

• Understanding the Anatomy of EdgeRank

• The Features and Benefits of Facebook Applications

• What’s Next  How Google+ will Compete with Facebook
Thank You

EdgeRank: Facebook’s News Feed Algorithm • The news feed only displays a subset of the stories generated by your friends • Every item that shows up in your News Feed is an “object” • If your brand has an “object” in the News Feed (i.e. status update, application, comment), whenever another user interacts with that object they’re creating an “Edge.” • An object is more likely to show up in your News Feed if people you know have been interacting with it recently.
  • 7. The Anatomy of EdgeRank Each Edge has three components important to Facebook’s algorithm: • Affinity Score: This is the relationship between the user and the “objects” creator. If you send your friend a lot of Facebook messages and check their profile often, then you’ll have a higher affinity score. • Edge Authority: There’s a weight given to each type of “Edge.” A comment likely has more importance than a “like.” • Time: The older the “Edge” the less relevant the content. Multiply these factors for each “Edge” then add the “Edge” scores up and you have an Object’s EdgeRank.

Search engines see these titles in H1 tags. • Links: As is the case with traditional SEO, getting links to your Facebook page and custom tabs is extremely beneficial. Links are like recommendations. • Optimize Custom Tabs: Tabs and tab content are given more weight then wall posts (or streaming apps that we mentioned earlier). Likes are a significant ranking factor in Bing. Google doesn’t have access to Facebooks API but Bing does. • Optimize Your Video: Video titles are heavily weighted. So make sure you’re giving your videos good titles, both on Facebook and on sites like YouTube and Vimeo.
  • 19. Cost Per Like (CPL) Facebook Fan Acquisition or Cost Per Like (CPL) There are some questions regarding the best strategy for Facebook media buys used to promote branding and increasing the “likes” of a fan page. • Target Audience: Is it better to go with a broad with a greater reach or narrow reach to a small demographic with a high affinity for a product. • Should you design copy with click through rate (CTR) in mind? • Since there is little effort in “liking” a product or brand, is it safe to assume a user who clicks on a Facebook ad will likely also “like” your fan page. What we think? High CTRs doesn’t ensure high CVRs (conversions) if you are interested in conversions (which can be identified as “likes” here) start out with a targeted campaign. If you are interested in branding with minimal CVRs a broader reach is the way to go.
  • 20. Tips for Managing a Like Acquisition Campaign on Facebook • Start by targeting audiences that have a high affinity for your product. • Build out broadly targeted audiences to get additional traffic but keep your maximum bids low, this will help to scale the build outs of your campaign. • Build upon on segments you know work well • (i.e. if a campaign to target women age 25-35 is performing well, expand that to reach to age 45) • Focus on improving ad copy for campaigns that have a low CTR but high CVR. • Leverage Sponsored Stories; an inherently viral toolsthat can help you acquire Fans at a significantly lower CPL. • CTRs of ads on Facebook will drop if they are not changed regularly, test new ad copy and keep in queue for when CTRs begin to drop.
