WhatsApp is used by over 900 million people around the world, and a whopping 30 billion messages have been sent through its servers. Its popularity took off because it uses an internet connection to send messages instead of traditional cellular networks, so messages don’t count against the allotment from your wireless carrier.
So, is Vero truly a threat to the mighty Instagram and Facebook? It’s too soon to tell, but social media apps can definitely come in and out of fashion, as Kylie Jenner pointed out earlier this week. And if you are tempted to give Vero a go, it’s probably worth downloading the app ASAP, before those free subscriptions run out.
Ich kann beim besten Willen keinen wesentlichen Unterschied zwischen sozialem Netzwerk, sozialen Medien und beispielsweise sozialem Wohnungsbau erkennen (bei letzterem ist die Kleinschreibung unzweifelhaft), außer dass die beiden ersteren direkt aus dem Englischen übersetzt sind und die die Hauptbedeutung von social nicht mit der von sozial identisch ist (siehe die Namen deutscher Parteien mit “S”).
Digitales Marketing ist gerade für kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen eine große Herausforderung aufgrund der rasanten Entwicklungen und Veränderungen in diesem Bereich. Gleichzeitig ist es aber auch eine Riesenchance, da mit kleinen Budgets sehr erfolgreiche Marketingaktionen umgesetzt werden können. Eins ist aber aus meiner Sicht dabei entscheidend: vorab ein klares Ziel formulieren, die Zielgruppe auswählen und alle Maßnahmen bei Umsetzung immer wieder daraufhin überprüfen und fokussieren. Ansonsten kann auch digitales Marketing sehr teuer werden.

Vero also emphasizes its privacy polices. It says it only collects a minimal amount of data about its users, like their names, email addresses and phone numbers, but doesn’t provide data to advertisers or other third parties.

There are a number of ways brands can use digital marketing to benefit their marketing efforts. The use of digital marketing in the digital era not only allows for brands to market their products and services, but also allows for online customer support through 24/7 services to make customers feel supported and valued. The use of social media interaction allows brands to receive both positive and negative feedback from their customers as well as determining what media platforms work well for them. As such, digital marketing has become an increased advantage for brands and businesses. It is now common for consumers to post feedback online through social media sources, blogs and websites on their experience with a product or brand.[21] It has become increasingly popular for businesses to use and encourage these conversations through their social media channels to have direct contact with the customers and manage the feedback they receive appropriately.
This social media site helps activists connect around the globe with similar individuals, businesses and organisations that are making an impact on society. It also encourages people to lead a healthy and green lifestyle.
In the book Networked – The New Social Operating System by Lee Rainie and Barry Wellman, the two authors reflect on mainly positive effects of social media and other Internet-based social networks. According to the authors, social media are used to document memories, learn about and explore things, advertise oneself and form friendships as well as the growth of ideas from the creation of blogs, podcasts, videos and gaming sites.[174] For instance, they claim that the communication through Internet based services can be done more privately than in real life. Furthermore, Rainie and Wellman discuss that everybody has the possibility to become a content creator. Content creation provides networked individuals opportunities to reach wider audiences. Moreover, it can positively affect their social standing and gain political support. This can lead to influence on issues that are important for someone. As a concrete example of the positive effects of social media, the authors use the Tunisian revolution in 2011, where people used Facebook to gather meetings, protest actions, etc.[88] Rainie and Wellman (Ibid) also discuss that content creation is a voluntary and participatory act. What is important is that networked individuals create, edit, and manage content in collaboration with other networked individuals. This way they contribute in expanding knowledge. Wikis are examples of collaborative content creation.
Predatory comments are a concern. Because anyone can communicate with broadcasters, there is the potential for viewers to request sexual pictures or performances or to contact them through other social means and send private images or messages.
Social media sites are becoming the go-to place for consumers who want to learn more about a business. That’s because these sites allow businesses to offer the most up-to-date information about anything from products, services, or upcoming events.
In a 2014 study, high school students ages 18 and younger were examined in an effort to find their preference for receiving news. Based on interviews with 61 teenagers, conducted from December 2007 to February 2011, most of the teen participants reported reading print newspapers only “sometimes,” with fewer than 10% reading them daily. The teenagers instead reported learning about current events from social media sites such as Facebook, MySpace, YouTube, and blogs.[67] Another study showed that social media users read a set of news that is different from what newspaper editors feature in the print press.[68] Using nanotechnology as an example, a study was conducted that[69] studied tweets from Twitter and found that some 41% of the discourse about nanotechnology focused on its negative impacts, suggesting that a portion of the public may be concerned with how various forms of nanotechnology are used in the future. Although optimistic-sounding and neutral-sounding tweets were equally likely to express certainty or uncertainty, the pessimistic tweets were nearly twice as likely to appear certain of an outcome than uncertain. These results imply the possibility of a preconceived negative perception of many news articles associated with nanotechnology. Alternatively, these results could also imply that posts of a more pessimistic nature that are also written with an air of certainty are more likely to be shared or otherwise permeate groups on Twitter. Similar biases need to be considered when the utility of new media is addressed, as the potential for human opinion to over-emphasize any particular news story is greater despite the general improvement in addressed potential uncertainty and bias in news articles than in traditional media.[70]
Also, sooo much of social media is being used for political propagandizing & pushing political interests – especially on fb – that it’s turned me off, temporarily. Is there a vehicle on these platforms that allows one to only get notifications on specific topics, say if I was to use it for biz marketing, only seeing those posts but have the ability to pull up ALL other posts, if want to? Lastly, can the comment section come first before having to scroll down on all 90 odd comments -i. e. is there a way to ‘fast forward’ thru them when one wishes to just make a comment?
In 1888, Johnson & Johnson introduced a publication called “Modern Methods of Antiseptic Wound Treatment” that was targeted to doctors that used bandages. They also released two publications that contained tips for the medical community.[10]
To do so, you could spend time coming up with marketing personas and debating the finer points of your mission statement and customer base. These all well and good. But for a social media marketing plan just getting off the ground, you can make this process a bit easier.
Leider offenbart sich auch in meiner Beschäftigung mit dem digitalen Marketing, dass vieles Neue hierzulande erdacht wird, der daraus resultierende wirtschaftliche Profit aber allzu oft hauptsächlich von amerikanischen oder asiatischen Unternehmen realisiert wird. Um als innovativer Standort im internationalen Wettbewerb aber weiter bestehen zu können, braucht es in Deutschland dringend eine gesellschaftliche Grundhaltung, die Innovation auch als Chance zu erkennen weiß. Bislang scheint hierzulande die Haltung besonders ausgeprägt, mit erstarrtem Blick auf das Risiko die Gunst der Stunde gerne auch verstreichen zu lassen. Hinsichtlich der Arbeit an einer solchen Grundhaltung sind neben der Politik sicherlich auch Schulen und Hochschulen konkret gefragt. In dieser Verantwortung möchte ich als Hochschullehrer in Forschung und Bildung meinen Beitrag leisten.
Marketing is increasingly a digital process, and marketers increasingly have to be technologists. That’s the common wisdom bandied about in myriad marketing conferences and publications that are ostensibly the “voice” of the industry. For once they have it right, although the analyses put forth would be greatly enhanced if they were more nuanced and formed with active input from the unsung heroes of digital marketing—IT professionals.
Die technisch-funktionale Umsetzung wird im Englischen auch mit dem Begriff social network service (SNS) bezeichnet. Deutsche Begriffe wie „Gemeinschaftsportal“ oder „Online-Kontaktnetzwerk“ sind hingegen kaum gebräuchlich.
