Cooking Up A Free Twitter Analytics Dashboard

We know this is asking a lot, but please look away from the new Twitter for just a second, because there are more exciting news in the pipeline. Ross Hoffman, a team member of Twitter, a business developer, recently discussed an up and coming without dashboard analysis to help Twitter users to understand how others interact with their tweets.

The base of the solution is Trendly, Twitter Analytics provider acquired in June. Trendly was known for highlighting some necessary changes in web traffic, and it sounds like they produce technology for a new bridge. According to Hoffman, the solution primarily to inform users of what they’ve done viral tweets and the users of their networks have been influential.

Why is it important? Well, Twitter, kicked some third-party companies to control the release of their new user interface, and we expect some pain like that, this new vision of Analytics hit the scene in Q4. companies such as Google Analytics and Omniture Klout have to work twice as long as if they assume that their Twitter applications to compete with free, baked-in solution.

In addition, it is interesting to think of Twitter and its efforts to look into an all-in-one solution for something we cannot quite feel yet (do not call it a social network).

Both the vice president of Twitter for business and corporate development Kevin Thau, Executive director, Evan Williams recently talked about how Twitter is a place of exploration news and information,but an analytics dashboard promotes a realm of social media marketing.

Maybe Twitter wants to be a Swiss-Army-knife  type of solution, just like Google. Since the solutions to keep coming and third-party applications to go forward, what do you see yourself mainly using the platform?

Use Twitter to Boost Your Job Search

About 300 to 500 jobs are posted on Twitter per minute, according toCarmen Hudson, CEO and co-founder of Tweetajob. With that many shared opportunities, the task of filtering information becomes daunting — that’s why we have hashtags. They can help you focus on the tweets you want to see along with the ones you didn’t even know existed.

Hudson, whose company sends job tweets that match a job seeker’s location and career interests, says the numbers are true but come with a caveat. “Many of these jobs are duplicates, or from aggregators. It’s likely the number of real opportunities could be much lower. There is quite a bit of ‘job pollution’ on Twitter, because the job boards and many employers don’t target their job tweets.”

Nonetheless, the jobs are still there. The key is finding them. As a way to filter through the noise, Hudson recommends job seekers use hashtags to take full advantage of Twitter’s search functionality.

Here are six hashtag categories that might be useful in a job search, along with some examples of what you could look for. For those who are new to Twitter or just need a refresher, check out this overview of hashtags.

Thank you Mashable for this article Be sure to click on one of the links above to read all the details on using hashtags for your job search.

If Facebook Were A Country….Social Media Revolution Updated

Did you know that if Facebook was a country, it would now be the third largest country in the world?

50% of mobile Internet traffic in the UK is on Facebook.

ge

Statistics can be interesting and these are. However, most everyone know the growth in social media is huge.  Here are several ways I use Social Media

1. Research: finding answers to questions using Google and YouTube is very valuable for me.

2. Developing “like minded” relationships. I have developed themed groups on Facebook and I know the people who have joined those groups are interested in the information I share.

3. Expanding the development of business using informative articles posted to blogs and inviting people to those articles on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn.

Those are the Top 3 for me.  What about you?

The 15 Worst Reasons to Use Social Media For Your Business

by Eric Fulwiler

I am a heavy supporter of social media as a valuable business tool, but only when it is used for the right reasons, and in the right way. Sometimes it’s easy to convince yourself that your reason for using social media for your business is right when it’s actually wrong. So, here it is, in black and white, the 15 worst reasons to use social media for business.

15. Because it’s free to sign up

14. Because you like the idea of going viral

13. Because you heard the buzz about the South by Southwest conference

12. Because you have friends who are successful bloggers

11. Because you can automate many social network feeds

10. Because the 400 million people on Facebook are a new population to advertise to

9. Because other companies have made millions of dollars on Twitter

8. Because the other companies who have used social media have received positive PR

7. Because you read that people trust social network contacts

6. Because you think it’s all return and no investment

5. Because you read a case study in which another business used social media successfully

Do Not Use The Facebook Events Feature. Here Is The Alternative

Social Media sites are always changing their features, benefits and more. Recently I planned a teleseminar and set up a Facebook Events page as part of the promotion. I also invested in a Facebook Ad for the event and the ad took people to the my Events Page.  For this campaign that ad was successful. I could track people confirming their attendance for the event.

I implemented a comprehensive marketing plan for this event and that resulted in nearly 1,500 people registering for the event. About 500 registered on the  Facebook Event Page. So watching these stats I was feeling good about the results especially since most people don’t come near driving that many people to an teleseminar.  24 hours before the event I went to message all who registered with the information on how to connect.  BAM!! …I discovered I was not able to message the 500 people who registered for the event on the Facebook Events Page…Major disappointment.

Next Time

1. I continue to recommend building groups. I don’t advise against fan pages. However, groups still receive my highest recommendation.

2. I continue to recommend positioning messages where you can communicate with those interested in your offer. Find them using Twitter and Facebook.

3. Don’t waste your time on Facebook Events unless they change and you can message those registering.  This was a feature that was active in the past and I do not see it active now.

4. Use Twitter as part of your strategy to drive those interested to a squeeze page for your event. You squeeze page should be set up for name and email capture into your auto responder.

5. Be sure to set up you teleseminar so it is recorded and have an offer so people can still register after the live event is over.

6. I am cautiously recommending Facebook ads. There is some typical marketing hype going around about Facebook Ads including at least one course for several thousand dollars on Facebook Ads. Hold onto your wallet.

This the kind of stuff speakers tell you from the front of the stage where you have paid hundreds and maybe thousands to hear.  So here it is for no charge . How cool is that?
