What is Social Media?
Social Media is an umbrella term that defines the various activities that integrate
technology, social interaction, and the construction of words and pictures.
Its various characteristics are:
Participation : It blurs the line between media and audience
Openness : They encourage voting, comments and the sharing of information.
Conversation : Not a “broadcast” but a two-way conversation
Community : Allows communities to form quickly and communicate effectively
Connectedness: Most kinds of social media thrive on their connectedness, making use of
links to other sites, resources and people.
What is Social Media Marketing?
Social media marketing is the process of promoting your site or business
through social media channels and it is a powerful strategy that will get you
links, attention and massive amounts of traffic.
There is no other low-cost promotional method out there that will easily
give you large numbers of visitors, some of whom may come back to your
website again and again.
Benefits of Social Media Marketing?
Social Media Marketing is becoming a major tool for Search Engine
Optimization.
Primary and Secondary Traffic: Though the primary traffic, which comes
directly from the social media websites ,may not be so useful, the secondary
traffic ,which is referral traffic from websites which link to and send you
visitors after they come across your content through the social sites, are very
targeted and useful for your websites.
High Quality Links: When a website receives a large number of natural,
permanent links from trusted domains, it develops authority. Search engines
trust it. It will help immensely in Search engine ranking as well. In a sense,
you are obtaining these quality links through borrowed trust.
Why to do Social Media Marketing?
It’s Natural.-Not only do you get natural links without any discernible pattern, your
website is exposed to large groups of people in a spontaneous fashion. This differs from
paid advertising which has overt commercial overtones.
It’s Defensible.- Once successfully mastered, social communities can be a great source
of web traffic on top of any traffic you are already receiving from search engines. While
you can’t easily increase your search engine traffic, social media traffic can be very easily
controlled through strategic marketing.
It’s Low-cost/High returns.- If done by yourself, costs are limited to only time and
perhaps the expenses involved in hiring a freelance programmer/designer. The benefits
will often exceed the cost. It would take you thousands of dollars to buy many links;
social media has the ability to give you that for free.
It Complements Other Efforts.- Social media optimization and marketing is usually
community-specific. It doesn’t interfere with any other methods of getting traffic to your
website. It can and will fit perfectly with an advertising campaign targeting other websites
or search engines.
