Editor's Notes
Today we are looking at a greater audience for news and information than ever before. The speed, breadth, and depth of information is reaching a wider audience then ever. The increased access and searchability of that content is also reaching new heights with journalists, investors, and consumers. This is now a hold of the financial industry as well as the casual investor as new technology allows people to make more informed decisions much more quickly.
The 1960s were noteworthy for cementing TV as THE communications medium and introducing a new technology that one could argue is already a relic in today’s world
However, the communications evolution turned revolution in the 90s with an explosion of new media forms. Internet became accessible to all – and with access, lowered the bar to communicate messages. It allowed almost anyone to become a media outlet, sometime regardless of qualifications or integity. Today, it seems that new media forms are introduced daily. You need a scorecard to keep up. For communicators, this rapid change can be overwhelming, but also a tremendous opportunity as vast audiences can be reached with great intimacy….but there are no rules and the roadmap changes constantly with faster innovation.
We have come to the age and rise of social consumerism and I wanted to share this video to share with you do demonstrate the power of social media.Where can I get one of them. Dave represents the shift of consumers out there. And what we need to do is understand the consumer digital ecosystem out there.
Reporters are no longer the sole “gatekeeper” of information. Organizations now have an opportunity to communicate beyond the media and directly with consumers and investors, worldwide. While traditional media still holds sway, big dividends are yielded when savvy communicators embrace the new generation of citizen journalists, bloggers and participants in social networks.
Even the tenets of traditional media such as the AP are losing their own influence as to what consumers see.
What is news today? 200 million active users worldwide30% of users are from the US2nd most visited web site in the world850 million photos, 7 million videos, and 28 million pieces of content are uploaded each monthMore than 95% of Facebook members have used at least one application built on Facebook PlatformMore than 4 million users become fans of Pages each day
SEO is the foundation of social media. You cannot today put your stuff out on line and think social media is going to do it. Counted has to be found first before it can be shared. Think how you can drive through search.
People use optimizationmaz, this is the tool to help you One think people don’t think about with SEO, they leave seo part to the end needs to be at the beginning. You will notice that the name and headline have been blocked out here....this is to protect the guilty.
When we as communicators distribute news online, we are often looking at raising the visibility of an issue or campaign. Visibility is one of those things that we have measured for a long time in clips and hits.
Brands create more opportunities for engagement. The real secret to social media success is to create something that you what to share with your friend and is consistent with your brand message. Does it pass the “I gotta share this!” Test, the answer is usually, NO. If people want to share it people will write about it or copy it.
Send your news release out on a wire service. When you do so, make sure you are doing correct SEO properties, to drive back where you want them to go.
