Social Media Marketing: guida definitiva per l'utente su Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Blogging, Twitter, LinkedIn,

by Adidas Wilson

Cosa si intende quando si parla di coinvolgimento sui Social Media? La risposta è semplice: è il numero di condivisioni, Mi piace e commenti. Sicuramente, avere un grande seguito è fantastico, ma bisogna ricordare che è sempre meglio puntare alla qualità che alla quantità e un pubblico impegnato è meglio di uno grande. Esistono alcune metriche utilizzate per misurare il coinvolgimento sui Social Media tra i quali: l’uso di hashtag brandizzati, le menzioni, i click-through, la crescita dei follower, i “Mi piace”, i Commenti, i Retweet e le condivisioni. I tuoi follower possono iniziare a interagire con i tuoi contenuti in maniera naturale. Ma spesso, potresti dover incoraggiarli un po'. Ci sono alcuni trucchi che possono aiutarti a raggiungere tale obiettivo. Valuta il tuo coinvolgimento: guarda quanti follower hai, il numero medio di condivisioni e commenti che ricevi su ogni post e qualsiasi altro numero rilevante. Assicurati di continuare a monitorare questi numeri. Scegli la tua strategia: ogni azienda ha obiettivi diversi e le strategie sono, quindi, diverse. La tua strategia dipenderà dai tuoi obiettivi. Potrebbe essere educare il pubblico, raccogliere feedback, cambiare la percezione del pubblico, ecc. Comprendi il tuo pubblico: non è facile coinvolgere persone che non conosci.
