Social Media Marketing
Since 2006, we have been covering a new marketing genre called Social media
Optimization via our blog.
Social media optimization is the merging of traditional
media, search
engine marketing and social marketing and can take two forms. One is
social media marketing, and one is Reputation Management.
Social media marketing best in conjunction with SEO,
not instead of. With traditional SEO you want to be visible on the search engines
for the campaign keywords. When you add social media to an SEO campaign, you
become visible to people who are searching on social networks like Facebook,
Delicious and YouTube etc. In addition you start to be involved in the conversations
that Bloggers are having within your target market.
