Online Marketing Blog - Thursday May 8th, 2008

Social media has simplified the art of the soapbox shout. Information is shared with the masses now using easy-to-use Web 2.0 tools and is recorded and cached for infinity. A shout out loud in social media has no geographic boundaries and is not time-limited. These two points make the non-stop monitoring of social media an important to-do for any brand owner. And monitoring social media does not just mean blogs. It should include video and image sharing sites and microblogging sites like Twitter, along with opinion and discussion forums.

Today I will attempt to answer the third question in my "Marketer's Foray Into Social Media: How will my social media campaign be measured?", the ever-so-present question of social media measurement.ruler1.jpg

Like everything with social media marketing, it often depends on what the client's objectives are (what are you trying to accomplish by utilizing social media?) as well as their expectations of the campaign.

While many companies are waking up to realize that their overall reputation management is as critically important as managing their bottom lines, some still see it as more of an art than a science.
