Social Media Optimization: SMO
Are you thinking of adding videos to your site? Perhaps, you would like to reach out to customers in a specific demographic. Have you ever 'Googled' yourself? Do you have Google alerts setup for your name, your company, your competitors? If not, you should! Read why social media optimization (smo) is so important for your brand reputation, your company and your future.
The Buzz: Social Media Optimization
Social Media is on the rise! Aside from traditional search engine rankings, website traffic proves to be the leading metric in determining if an organic search engine optimization program is effective. Since the web is a combination of niche communities interacting with one another, it is important for us to build your brand reputation through these social avenues.
YouTube is considered to be the 2nd largest search engines (next to Google), producing over 2.6 billion search results! Unlike Google who remains to keep their ranking algorithm private, YouTube publicly states that the number of hits and number of comments determines the organic placements of a video. That is why it is so important to build your website's presence on this social media giant!
Why is Social Media Optimization Important?
People want to connect with others; by establishing yourself (or company) in a community niche, not only will you promote your business (or product), but also ultimately create immediate connections between you and your target audience.
