How Can a Marketer Take Advantage of Facebook’s New Send Dialog?

FletcherT — Fri, 15 Jul 2011 17:00:52 +0000

Back in April, Facebook rolled out the Send button, a function that provided a simple and direct way for users to privately share content through the platform. Though it has not garnered as much attention as the Like button, this feature can be viewed a huge success considering that the social network says it has already been installed on more than 100,000 sites. Nearly two months later, Facebook has followed up the Send button with a new feature called Send Dialog. In this article, we will discuss the feature in more detail and explain how a marketer can take advantage of the Send Dialog to engage their audience. (...)

Facebook Fan Page Versus Facebook Groups

Spencer Spellman — Sun, 10 May 2009 16:00:52 +0000

With the current craze over Facebook among college students and now even among older people, it’s almost taboo not to have a profile on Facebook. The popular social networking site boasts around 150 to 200 million users worldwide.

If you’re like most people, you have a decently-filled out profile. You’ve probably listed a few of your favorite movies, put down your high school and posted a couple photos. Now that you’ve gotten this far, it’s time to spread your wings.

Facebook is about social networking, so it’s time to actually do get social and do some networking with people other than your spouse or that crush from high school you really don’t remember. A couple of the best ways Facebook allows users to do this is through fan pages and groups. (...)

Spencer Spellman — Sat, 02 May 2009 18:00:21 +0000

The title says it all; we create websites, blogs, wikis, forums, profiles and so on because we want increased traffic. Why else would tools like Facebook and Twitter be increasing at such a staggering rate?

Myspace vs Facebook: Is Myspace Still Relevant?

Spencer Spellman — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 17:00:28 +0000

It seems like it was just yesterday when Myspace was the rave. Users could customize their own backgrounds, add music and videos and write on each others’ pages. Yet with the rapid growth of Facebook and now Twitter, it seems that Myspace has just been left in the dust. This begs the question, is Myspace still relevant? Should you even consider deleting your Myspace account?

Like all social networking sites and especially new startups, Myspace has come up against some bumps in the road, including how to deal with spammers, inappropriate content, privacy and most importantly for their creators, how to make money. Two of the biggest turnoffs recently for Myspace users has been advertisement and spammers.v(...)

Eye for Travel’s Social Media Strategies

Spencer Spellman — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 18:00:08 +0000

I recently had the opportunity to go to Eye for Travel’s Social Media Strategies Conference in San Francisco (there’s another one coming up in June). The conference featured presentations from companies that included Disney, Priceline, Linkedin, Southwest Air, TripAdvisor, Bebo and more. Although the conference focused primarily on travel, it included social media strategies that everyone could take advantage of. The two-day event showed that there are many people who are positively using different social media outlets like Facebook, Twitter and their own online communities to reach out to consumers, while bringing in a return on their investment.

If there was one principle that was emphasized more than any other, it was that of engaging people. (...)

How to: Create a Facebook Fan Page

Spencer Spellman — Fri, 20 Feb 2009 20:00:42 +0000

If you’ve recently graduated from college, it’s hard to imagine your college life apart from Facebook. Catching the latest gossip, becoming friends with that college superstar who has never heard of you and staying up-to-date on the latest happenings. And of course, everyone knows it’s not official until it’s on Facebook! However, Facebook is no longer just for college students. Many people reading this may have parents and even grandparents with an account now. Time Magazine even went as far as to publish an article recently called “Why Facebook is for Old Fogies“.

However, despite the unusual name, as Twitter grows so will its ties to the world of business. This begs the question, how is Twitter a powerful tool for businesses?

If you’re not familiar with Twitter, it is a microblogging tool, which in essence gives users 140 characters with which to communicate. Examples of posts include links to articles, advice, self-promotion, questions, and statements about what people are currently doing.(...)
