Social Media Optimization (SMO)
Social Media Optimization, Viral Marketing and Advertisement describe a strategy that encourages individuals to pass on a quality marketing message to others, creating a self-replicating process in the message’s exposure and influence.
Social media optimization involves a process of creating a community online or gaining increased awareness of your brand or product in existing online communities. It combines the objectives of Internet Marketing with social networking sites such as Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Digg.
Why SMO?
Social media optimization technologies will continue to grow substantially in the future. Now more than four in five online adults in the US use social media at least once a month, and half participate in social media networks like Facebook. While young people continue to move toward universal adoption of social applications, the most rapid growth occurred among consumers 35 and older. This means the time to build social media optimization applications is now. Interactive marketers should influence social network chatter, master social communication, and develop social assets even with older customers.
Power of Buzz
Social media optimization can take many different forms, including text, images, audio, and video. Popular social mediums include blogs, message boards, podcasts and wikis. Like viruses, such strategies take advantage of rapid multiplication to explode your online marketing campaign.
