Notes de l'éditeur
- Whatever you’re comfortable with publicly displaying, make it clear, attractive, useful. Let readers drill down for more info – some of the ideas I’ll show you don’t need to be front & center but available.Make it easy for your prospects and don’t make them go to compete (to get bad info) or dig into each of your networks. Tell them what they need to know. Someone with time can figure out this info but why make them work so hard for it?
- What makes you unique? Where do you shine?
- 1.Where are you engaging online? List all the platforms you use & how many are in your social footprint. If they’re not big, talk about focus. Size is not everything.
- Easel.lyKeep in mind, these numbers are made up!
- Again, these are totally made up!
- Compare yourself against yourself. Compare against your “competition” (by looking at great sites in your category)You can do this for your blog, too. Engagement, though I hate the word, matters to your clients. Socialbakers – link to more info on ‘leavebehind’
- SocialbakersYou all have heard about ROI – but what is the return on engagement….
- This is how we calculated diversity score for a recent study. The score isn’t the important part – the fact that you ARE diverse or you ARE focused is what they’ll care about.Platform focus is important – and helps paint the picture of who you are!
- Brands and prospects want to know that OTHER PEOPLE appreciate your content. Show them with demonstrating that your content is being read and shared.
- Google Analytics
- Are you attracting new visitors? Keeping your old ones?
- Straight through rss feed. Easy peasy.http://findingblanche.com/feed/ through wordle.netSERIOUSLY if you were a re-decorating site, wouldn’t I look appealing? Hehe.Want to go back further in time? Download as xmlOpen in Text WranglerSearch for posts (or comments) save as Excel and clean up data. Or pull from social monitoring tool like Brandwatch.
- And connection – use many eyes and upload content from monitoring. Can be used for any content, campaign. Free download from socialmention, but better from rowfeeder or brandwatchGreat for visualizing comments too – because folks care that other people care about what you write. Right?
- Once your content is in Many Eyes, you can choose words and see what content is connected to it – for example here – LOVE. Yours could be about a giveaway or campaign, or something else you focus on.
- Index – how you compare to the overall internet
- Boy, do I overdeliver in Baltimore. Thanks, Mom.
