- You have to convince people that if they do not befriend you, they will miss the next fun things you do. So we did more contests. Around St. Valentine we made a contest for the best video/podcast/presentation about love in their library. Phenomenon of social media is that once you reach a certain level of users/page interaction, it stays We were building for 6 months in this way until what we believe is the ceiling of librarians and libraries online on social networks. The steps are the different contests I just mentioned. Those people are a community and now receive our news whenever we post it. In a sustainable way, better than a website that people just stop visiting after a while.
- I was showing an example from the more interactive social networks, but we also had success on Youtube, blogs and our website. Since we advertise every update on those through the social networks, we keep the traffic high on every website we run. We had 320,000 hits in the last sixt months on youtube channel, two blogs and our website combined. Social networks activity should land on project web site, blog.
