The devil’s in the details when it comes to developing a consistent social media strategy for your business. Little mistakes and simple omissions can handicap your efforts — and leave you looking like a online novice. We wanted to find out exactly w…

If you’ve never used StumbleUpon, its new Windows 8 app provides a lot of incentive to start. After setting up your account and selecting from a list of over 500 interests, StumbleUpon will show you cool articles, content and treasures from every corner of the Internet. Integrated with the native Windows 8 sharing support, it is simple to turn content discovery into content sharing. Designed to provide an immersive full screen experience, the app can also be “snapped” to the side of your desktop to keep you entertained while you get stuff done.

People aren’t just watching cat videos and posting selfies on social media these days. Many rely on social networks to discover, research, and educate themselves about a brand before engaging with that organization. For marketers, it’s not enough to just post on your Facebook and Twitter accounts. You must also weave social elements into every aspect of your marketing and create more peer-to-peer sharing opportunities. The more your audience wants to engage with your content, the more likely it is that they will want to share it. This ultimately leads to them becoming a customer. And as an added bonus, they will hopefully influence their friends to become customers, too.

You’ve got down your most important goals, network preferences and metrics–now it’s time to make sure you made the right decisions. Knowing you’ve made the right choices is still a difficult task in social media.

Weiterhin wird in letzter Zeit vermehrt darüber diskutiert, welche Auswirkungen die Nutzung sozialer Netzwerke auf die Psyche von Nutzern hat. Forschungserkenntnisse deuten darauf hin, dass die Nutzung bei einigen Nutzern zu einer kurzfristigen Erhöhung des Selbstbewusstseins und zu einer Verminderung der Selbstkontrolle führen kann.[24] Ergebnisse von Langzeitstudien hingegen liegen bis dato noch nicht vor.

Digital marketing is a term that has been around for quite awhile but hasn’t been very well defined, encompassing things like banner advertising, search engine optimization (SEO) and pay per click. Yet, this is too narrow of a definition. What about email, RSS, voice broadcast, fax broadcast, blogging, podcasting, video streams, wireless text messaging, and instant messaging? You get the idea.

Im Vergleich der Zahlen, wie oft Vero und Instagram in den App Stores heruntergeladen wurden, kann Vero aber noch lange nicht mit der großen Konkurrenz mithalten, der Unterschied ist gewaltig: Google beziffert die Downloads von Vero zwischen 500.000 und einer Million; die für Instagram liegen in Milliardenhöhe.

Facebook and LinkedIn are leading social media platforms where users can hyper-target their ads. Hypertargeting not only uses public profile information but also information users submit but hide from others.[18] There are several examples of firms initiating some form of online dialog with the public to foster relations with customers. According to Constantinides, Lorenzo and Gómez Borja (2008) “Business executives like Jonathan Swartz, President and CEO of Sun Microsystems, Steve Jobs CEO of Apple Computers, and McDonalds Vice President Bob Langert post regularly in their CEO blogs, encouraging customers to interact and freely express their feelings, ideas, suggestions, or remarks about their postings, the company or its products”.[15] Using customer influencers (for example popular bloggers) can be a very efficient and cost-effective method to launch new products or services[19] Narendra Modi current prime minister of India ranks only second after President Barack Obama in a number of fans on his official Facebook page at 21.8 million and counting.[20] Modi employed social media platforms to circumvent traditional media channels to reach out to the young and urban population of India which is estimated to be 200 million.

The concepts behind “social networking” aren’t anything new – ever since there have been humans, we have been looking for ways to connect, network, and promote with one another – but they’ve taken on an entirely new meaning (and momentum) in the digital age. Where we used to have handshakes, word-of-mouth referrals, and stamped letters, today’s relationships are often begun and developed on LinkedIn, Google +, and Facebook.

For the first part of this decision, you can reference the audience research and demographics from surveys like those conducted by Pew Research. For instance, Pew has complete data, collected last year, of the demographics for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. Here is a side-by-side comparison of the major social media platforms’ user demographics.

While still in infancy, the Windows Store has already amassed over 20,000 applications from developers for new Windows 8 apps. Programmers and marketers alike have been quick to adapt existing applications and create new utilities and games to take advantage of the new interface of the latest Windows operating system.
