Not sure I agree with Tim. Social is social. The fact that Pharma is all wound up on itself is more a reflection of pharma than the way the web works. Google makes no distinction betrween pharma content and any other type. Pharma is the one who binds itself up in knots, but universal content and social marketing axioms still apply.
Tim Mustill's comment, July 30, 2013 8:48 AM
I agree the axioms apply Martin but sadly, due to the self -inflicted knots you refer to and regulation there are some aspects of B2C that are just not practical for prescription medicines. Thankfully the barriers are slowly coming down with more big pharma embracing at least some elements of social media.

How To Archive Twitter Search Results in a Google Spreadsheet and Analyze Them

How To Archive Twitter Search Results in a Google Spreadsheet and Analyze Them | Information Technology & Social Media News | Scoop.it

From the article: "I find Twitter the most essential social media tool for Internet Marketers on many levels, mainly because of its search API.

 

Unlike Facebook's and Google Plus's non-existent search options, Twitter makes it easy to go through the huge amounts of updates being published every minute and find those which are relevant (and important) to your brand.

 

Twitter search is priceless for various tasks:

 

- Track updates from any niche conference or event (through the official hashtag). In this particular case, archiving is very essential because your archive will let you find testimonials for your next event or quotes for your event coverage, etc.

 

- Monitor most recent link building opportunities. I for one use Twitter search to instantly react to niche guest posting invites;

 

- Monitor your own brand mentions (both linked and unlinked). Here's one post I did previously on awesome Twitter search operators that let you filter out all the clutter and track only very essential brand mentions (for example, filter out Twitter updates that contain links and only listen to "real" conversations);

 

- Keep an eye on your competitors and how they are doing on Twitter (for example, find negative mentions and be there to offer a better alternative)

 

- Identify active users and influencers within your niche (and get connected to them).

 

The free Google Spreadsheet I am reviewing in this article can help you with all the above tasks: it collects tweets, archives them and lets you analyze them! [..]"

Robin, terrific article. I've been using rowfeeder for this task (not free) and use it to capture tweets after I do presentations (http://www.bethkanter.org/data-viz-12ntc/) - now wondering what rowfeeder offers over the method mentioned in the post?

Thus, the first step is the understanding of oneness. Develop a global perspective by reading the history of other countries, understanding their culture and appreciating their uniqueness. Studying the nature, environment, the balance between the human, plant and animal kingdoms, will make you revere the beauty of creation and in turn shall inspire you to take effort to restore and maintain the balance of nature. Work towards the benefit of the entire world. Undertake impersonal projects for the benefit of others. This should not be limited to just your own country, but should extend to the whole world. The focus of a World Citizen is enhancing global consciousness.

Virus Finder Microsoft's ViralSearch For Twitter Looks Cool | Information Technology & Social Media News | Scoop.it

"One of the many undying questions from web publishers, marketers, and regular web users is "what makes something go viral?" which, coincidentally, is also something Microsoft is working on.

 

Today the company revealed a new research project called ViralSearch that uses a search engine to identify the most popular content on Twitter. 

 

ViralSearch scans billions of pieces of information, including news, photos, and video, and assigns a virality rating to the most popular topics based on how the content was shared via Twitter".

9 herramientas de analítica en Social Media imprescindibles para el Community manager

9 herramientas de analítica en Social Media imprescindibles para el Community manager | Information Technology & Social Media News | Scoop.it

La generación de menciones y conversaciones que se genera en la Social Media obliga a los encargados de esta actividad en la empresa a tener sistemas muy precisos de seguimiento y control. Seovalladolid nos presenta su set de herramientas para cumplir esta función:

 

Google Analytics

Éste es un servicio de rastreo y de tráfico que Google ofrece gratis. Google analytics no solo sirve para trackear el tráfico de tu web, es mucho más que eso, también es una herramienta muy potente y GRATIS de analítica Social Media. (www.google.com/analytics)

 

Backtype

Un motor de búsqueda conversacional en tiempo real que ofrece información actualizada de lo que se está diciendo de la empresa y los productos. Una recopilación de Twitter, blogs, redes sociales y artículos que aparecen en páginas de la red como Reddit, Backtype permite saber efectivamente cuáles bloggers están hablando de su empresa. (www.backtype.com)

 

Twitter Search

Ofrece acceso inmediato a quienes están comentando sobre la empresa en Twitter. Es importante verificar cuál es la tendencia en los temas referidos a la empresa para encontrar los últimos elogios, problemas y oportunidades. ¿Nadie está haciendo ningún comentario? Twitter es un excelente lugar para que su empresa inicie una conversación y se haga notar frente a posibles clientes. Desarrollar una comunidad de “seguidores” online permite tener conversaciones muy francas con personas con las que de otra manera, no tendrían ningún conocimiento de la marca. (www.search.twitter.com)

 

Facebook Fan Pages

Facebook le ofrece herramientas de medición dentro de los derechos de administración de grupos. Midiendo el número de seguidores, el monto de comentarios y de lo que se comparte, puede establecerse el nivel de inicio, fijar metas de opiniones y visitas.www.Facebook.com/pages/create.php

 

Addict-O-Matic

Similar a Backtype, Addict-o-matic crea una página personalizada que pone de relieve conversaciones, fotos, videos y artículos que mencionan la empresa. Addict-o-matic ofrece una instantánea panorámica de los comentarios que están siendo creados por usted online. Desde una perspectiva corporativa, Addict-O-Matic es la herramienta perfecta para el ocupado Social Media Manager. Le permite estar al tanto de su presencia online sin necesidad de acudir a cada servicio individual. (www.addictomatic.com)

 

Website Grader

Una herramienta gratuita de Optimización de Motores de Búsqueda que mide la eficacia de marketing de una página web. Website Grader califica una página sobre la base de cosas tales como tráfico en la red, popularidad social y SEO. Luego ofrece asesoramiento básico sobre cómo mejorar su página web desde el punto de vista de marketing. La herramienta es un complemento perfecto para una campaña bien posicionada en las redes sociales, porque le facilita a los motores de búsqueda la detección e identificación de su página corporativa. En su calidad de Social Media Manager, utilice esta herramienta para evaluar dónde está parada actualmente su página y dónde tendría que mejorar. (www.websitegrader.com)

 

Compete.com

Ofrece la oportunidad de comparar la popularidad de una página web y los datos analíticos con los de los competidores. Al entrar en la dirección web, así como en las direcciones de hasta dos de los competidores, podrá ver un gráfico de líneas que revelan el tráfico hacia cada una de las páginas web tanto como los principales términos de búsqueda y los sitios de referencia para cada empresa. Esta es una gran herramienta de cotejo que ayuda a hacer el seguimiento del éxito de una campaña desde el principio hasta el final al mismo tiempo que mantiene la vigilancia sobre el éxito de la competencia. (www.compete.com)

 

Social Meter

Social meter revisa las páginas más importantes de las redes sociales para analizar la popularidad de cualquiera de ellas. Observa los links que se refieren a otras páginas, como Digg, Delicious, Google search y Technorati, registrando los resultados en un completo gráfico de barras. Al publicar información relevante en Twitter y blogs, puede aumentar el puntaje en Social Meter. Cuanto más alto sea su puntaje más personas estarán leyendo sus contenidos. (www.socialmeter.org)

 

Hootsuite

Para mi la mejor y más profesional herramienta de Analítica Social Media, la facilidad para crear informes personalizados para cada cliente y el bajo coste de su cuota premium (unos 6€/mes) al alcance de cualquier bolsillo hacen que sea la más profesional en relacción calidad precio, es la que yo uso con mis clientes para los informes y la que uso a diario, bien es cierto que no es la única que uso, pero si una de las principales.

(http://hootsuite.com)

 

Usando los sitios web y las herramientas mencionadas más arriba antes de iniciar una campaña en las redes sociales y siguiendo su progreso en cada una de ellas, una empresa podrá enfocar sus esfuerzos para llegar más acertadamente a su público y lograr un mayor ROI. No es necesario utilizar todas estas herramientas al mismo tiempo; unas pocas que funcionen bien es suficiente, y pueden ser controladas semanalmente. Una vez que haya desarrollado una buena base de seguimiento de su progreso, calcular el ROI de sus esfuerzos va a ser tan fácil como manejar las finanzas de una empresa
