Incentive Propelled Marketing on Facebook

Mark — Mon, 29 Nov 2010 09:11:56 +0000

We took the principle of our incentive propelled Twitter marketing solution Twoodlebug and applied it to Facebook. By utilising a Facebook application that allows access to fans only, along with a call to action – to ‘Like’ your page – you can effectively force users to promote your Facebook page to their friends in return for something that’s accessible only via your ‘Fans’ tab… It’s another example of how you can harness the viral potential of social media websites, and maximise the reach of your campaigns, through incentive propelled social media marketing.

Not so Viral Video: Web 2.0 vs Google SEO

Mark — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 15:52:43 +0000

I watched a guy on YouTube argue that ‘web 2.0′ (social media) is more effective than search engine optimisation, which he infers to be ‘a big joke’. He cites two pages, one of which he’d optimised for Google and the other which he’d actively promoted via social networks and booking sites.

As you may have already guessed, the page he’d promoted using his social media tools had substantially more views (2,352) than the page he’d left on Google to fend for itself (108). While it’s not really surprising, it does at least demonstrate the traffic generating power of social media.

Hey, it was 5 minutes of my life I’ll never get back, I had to draw something from it. I don’t know why we can’t all just get along…
