Measure Social Media Marketing: Learn the Best Way to Track Social Media Traffic in Google Analytics
A growing number of savvy marketers are dabbling in social media and gaining followers by connecting with customers and creating conversations. But tracking social media, and quantifying its value can be tricky. How you measure success really depends on your own goals. Companies like Cymfony, Radian6, and Nielsen have social media monitoring tools to help you get the most out of your social media programs. But these tools cost money - sometimes a lot of it.

"Yes, of course. But I don't think you can find me, as there are too many people who have the same name as me. Try searching with my surname as well."

Body Image And Mass Media
The media plays a significant role in shaping cultural impression about the body, and provides an obvious development of personal attitudes toward our bodies. Media focuses mainly on idealized imagery of the body and with the message of having the desirable body image. The media is targeting teens through magazines. Some of the messages those magazines give especially Seventeen Magazine is that the body is the key for adolescent identity, particularly for girls. The body is a consuming project and important for self definition for adolescent girls.

The New Media

The Role of Media in Politics
Every so often, the mass media system in the United States experiments significant transformations that signal a new plateau in its evolution. Widespread recognition of the new media's role on the political scene occurred during the 1992 Presidential campaign. The candidates flocked to talk radio, television talk shows, news magazine programs and the internet. Although the media offered many options to deliver their views, the debate as to rather or not the content was informative or entertainment had begun.
The Role of Media in Politics
Talk Radio
If there has been one communications format that has become emblematic of the new media, it is talk radio. Talk radio used to be the "night shift" of the airways. Talk radio reinvented itself. Talk radio became an important candidate forum in 1992. President George H. Bush interviewed with conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh. By 1994 nine talk radio hosts ran for statewide or local office. Most were unsuccessful, but their positions in talk radio gave them legitimacy as
candidates.
Other unsuccessful candidates such as former New York Governor Mario Cuomo and New York Mayor Ed Koch moved into local or national talk show host jobs. Talk radio had a political platform. Americans were tuning in. Ratings were up. Profits were rising. Talk radio had become a force to be reckoned with.
Television
Cable television opened the airways for an onset of media opportunities. Time slots were filled with talk shows and news programs that you could tune in twenty four hours a day. The television media quickly enhanced their position in the political process. Politicians and the mainstream press could not help but take them seriously. One of the criticisms levied against the television media was that they trivialized serious issues of governing by mixing politics with entertainment. Every political issue at hand could now be analyzed and scrutinized twenty four hours a day on cable news. Campaigns had to give a second look on the role of media in politics. The media could be a tool of support or a thorn in your side. Campaign strategy had to be changed. The power of television was not to be denied.
The Internet
Twenty five years ago the term "modem" did not even appear in the dictionary. Modems connect people to online computer services such as CompuServe,Prodigy, America Online or MSN, and to hundreds of thousands of world wide websites and home pages. Increasingly, the internet has become a tool for political communications as well. On the net you could gain political info, express political opinion, and mobilize other voters and political leaders. You could also make political donations. In this years Presidential race, candidates have raised literally millions of dollars online. The web has become a electronic town hall. In a brief time, the web has grown into a major player in the new media.
Conclusion
The media has found its niche in today's politics. Rather its talk shows, television or the internet, they have laid a foundation, built a platform from which to voice their social agenda and flex their political muscle. How much of that voice is quality content is still up for debate. One thing is for sure, if you want to succeed in politics, it will not hurt to have the media in your corner.

Measure Social Media Marketing: Learn the Best Way to Track Social Media Traffic in Google Analytics
Google Analytics is an excellent tool to monitor your web traffic. It's easy to set-up and you'll get valuable information. You'll get insightful information on where your traffic is coming from, what people are doing when they get to your site, what keeps people there and what makes people leave. Best of all? It's free. If you're not using this tool, we suggest you start right away.
Measure Social Media Marketing: Learn the Best Way to Track Social Media Traffic in Google Analytics
If you have general knowledge of Google Analytics, you likely already know how to pull reports showing how much traffic Facebook is driving to your website. This is basic. But what if you wanted an executive-level view of how your social media efforts collectively are moving your business forward? What if you wanted to know whether the time and resources you're allocating to managing social campaigns is having a positive effect not only on helping you get noticed, but in driving revenue?
The best way to track social media traffic in Google Analytics is by creating a custom segment. This view provides a comprehensive dashboard of all traffic across all your social media channels. Google calls this an Advanced Segment. It's an advanced feature but we'll make it simple by outlining the steps below.
First, drop the pull-down menu titled "All Visits".
Click "Create a new advanced segment" link.
Click "Traffic Sources" under the "Dimensions" tab. Drag the "Source" bar over. Set the condition to "Contains". And in the "Value" field type "facebook".
Repeat this third step for "Twitter", "LinkedIn", "YouTube", "Flickr", and other social sites. You'll want to add social networks, URL shorteners (bit.ly, ow.ly, goo.gl), social media dashboards (HootSuite, twitterfeed, etc), and bookmarking and sharing services (Stumbleupon, Tumblr, Digg, etc). Also include iterations such as "touch.facebook.com", "tweet", and "m.facebook.com". At this stage, it is helpful to run a report showing your top 500 or so traffic sources and look for any social sites you may have missed. If you're not sure if a site is a social network, take a look at Wikipedia's gigantic list of two-hundred plus social sites.
The last step is to name your custom segment and save it. Call is something like "Social Media Sites".
To run your report, go to the Advanced Segments drop-down menu and select "Social Media Sites". Now, run your reports like you ordinarily would, this time choosing your new segment. You'll now be able to run custom reports.
A few questions to examine:
Which social networks generate the most conversions? If you have goals and funnels set up in Google Analytics, you'll be able to see conversion rates and monetary value of the traffic you're receiving.
Which social networks are bringing in people who stay the longest and view the most pages? These may be some of your best prospects. Consider putting more of your time and energy in using this network.
To what extent does your social traffic correlate with your search traffic? An increase in search traffic can be a result of more social activity - the more people are hearing about you on the social web, they get to know you, and then do a search to find out even more about you. A strong social media presence can build a company's influence and reach.
Are you effectively converting your social media marketing efforts into tangible results? If not, an expert can help align your social media with the rest of your marketing effectively. Talk to one to uncover ways social media can help you gain followers and grow your business.

Twitter Safety - 4 Ways to Use This Top Social Media Site Without Compromising Your Personal Safety
1. Do not tell others that you are going out somewhere.
Twitter Safety - 4 Ways to Use This Top Social Media Site Without Compromising Your Personal Safety
If you want to share some insight into your life, tell people that "you just got back from..." especially when people know at least the city and state you live in (or wherever you are in the world).
You'll achieve the same purpose without telling someone your home may be empty.
2. Especially do not tweet that you are going away for the weekend or on a trip!
Yes, you probably have a great alarm system, but no need to invite people to test it. Also not a good idea to share with others that wives are likely home alone with kids while you are off on a business trip or speaking at a conference. I see this one all the time from some of the top movers and shakers in New Media and Internet Marketing.
Again, tell others who follow you what a great trip "you just came back from".
3. Don't let the world know if you live alone.
I recently noticed a follower of mine tweeting about a roommate canceling out on her, and asking if anyone knew of someone looking to rent a place in her city/state. A good-hearted person's gesture that immediately set off an alarm in my head. I sent her a direct message about this, and she thanked me and promptly removed the message.
4. It's about being sociable, not divulging every secret of your life.
I remember someone once telling me that having a web site is like having a billboard on the highway for passers by to check out. And on the internet, the Twitter highway has an infinite amount of lanes and cars whizzing by. So don't tweet anything that you wouldn't be comfortable with if it appeared on a giant billboard you would pass driving down a highway.

Social media or "social networking" has almost become part of our daily lives and being tossed around over the past few years. It is like any other media such as newspaper, radio and television but it is far more than just about sharing information and ideas. Social networking tools like Twitter, Facebook, Flickr and Blogs have facilitated creation and exchange of ideas so quickly and widely than the conventional media. The power of define and control a brand is shifting from corporations and institutions to individuals and communities. It is no longer on the 5Cs (e.g. condominium, credit cards and car) that Singaporeans once talked about. Today, it is about the brand new Cs: creativity, communication, connection, creation (of new ideas and products), community (of shared interests), collaboration and (changing the game of) competition.

Impact of Social Media on Society
In January 2010, InSites Consulting has conducted an online survey with 2,884 consumers from over 14 countries between the ages of 18 to 55 years old on social networking. More than 90% of participants know at least 1 social networking site and 72% of participants are members of at least 1 social networking site. On the average, people have about 195 friends and they log in twice a day to social networking sites. However, 55% of the users cannot access their social network websites at work. In the past, not many adults were able to make more than 500 friends, but with social media, even a child or teenager can get to know more than 500 people in a few days by just clicking the mouse. Social media has devalued the traditional definition of "friend" where it means trust, support, compatible values, etc. Although we get to know more people, we are not able to build strong bond with all the people whom we met as our available time is limited. Hence, there is an upcoming social trend of people with wider social circles, but weaker ties (people we don't know very well but who provide us with useful information and ideas).
Impact of Social Media on Society
Social media also influences people's buying behaviours. Digital Influence Group reported that 91% of the people say consumer reviews are the #1 aid to buying decisions and 87% trust a friend's recommendation over critic's review. It is thrice more likely to trust peer opinions over advertising for purchasing decisions. 1 word-of-mouth conversation has an impact of 200 TV ads. With the prevalence use of social media, there is numerous news related to it from the most viewed YouTube video on "Armless pianist wins 'China's Got Talent'" to Web-assisted suicide cases (e.g. New Jersey college student who killed himself after video of him in a sexual encounter with another man was posted online). Thus, does social networking make us better or worse off as a society?
Positive Effects of Social Media
Besides having opportunity to know a lot of people in a fast and easy way, social media also helped teenagers who have social or physical mobility restrictions to build and maintain relationships with their friends and families. Children who go overseas to study can still stay in meaningful contact with their parents. To a greater extend, there is anecdotal evidence of positive outcomes from these technologies.
In 2008, President-elected Obama won the election through the effective use of social media to reach millions of audience or voters. The Obama campaign had generated and distributed huge amount of contents and messages across email, SMS, social media platforms and their websites. Obama and his campaign team fully understood the fundamental social need that everyone shares - the need of being "who we are". Therefore, the campaign sent the message as "Because It's about YOU" and chose the right form of media to connect with individuals, call for actions and create community for a social movement. They encouraged citizens to share their voices, hold discussion parties in houses and run their own campaign meetings. It truly changed the delivery of political message.
Obama campaign had made 5 million "friends" on more than 15 social networking sites (3 million friends on Facebook itself) and posted nearly 2,000 YouTube videos which were watched over 80 million times. At its peak, their website, MyBarackObama.com, had 8.5 million monthly visitors and produced 400,000 blog posts. In order to ensure that their contents were found by people, the Obama campaign spent .5 million on Google search in October alone, 0,000 on Advertising.com, 7,000 on Facebook in 2008, etc. Currently, Obama's Twitter account has close to 6 million followers.
In 2010, after the earthquake happened in Haiti, many of the official communication lines were down. The rest of the world was not able to grasp the full picture of the situation there. To facilitate the sharing of information and make up for the lack of information, social media came in very handy to report the news about the affected area on what happened and what help was needed. Tweets from many people provided an impressive overview of the ongoing events from the earthquake. BBC covered the event by combining tweets from the work of its reporter Matthew Price in Port-au-Prince at the ground. Guardian's live blog also used social media together with the information from other news organisations to report about the rescue mission.
It has been two years since CNN officially launched iReport as a section of its website where people can upload video material, with contact information. During the Haiti crisis, CNN had published a range of social media material but not all the materials were verified. The editorial staff would vet the reports from the citizen journalists and labeled them differently compared to unverified contents. On Facebook, a group, named "Earthquake Haiti", was formed to show support and share updates and news. It had more than 14,000 members and some users even pleaded for assistance to the injured Haitians in the group. Using email, Twitter and social networking sites like Facebook, thousands of volunteers as part of Project Ushahidi were able to map reports sent by people from Haiti.
The most impressive part of the social media's impact on Haiti is the charity text-message donations that soared to over million for the victims in Haiti. People interested in helping the victims are encouraged to text, tweet and publicize their support using various social networking sites. The Global Philanthropy Group had also started a campaign to ask wealthy people and celebrities, like Ben Stiller and John Legend to use Twitter and Facebook to encourage others to give to UNICEF. An aid worker, Saundra Schimmelpfennig, allowed the advice from other aid workers and donors to post on her blog regarding to choosing which charitable organisations to support. In the meantime, donors were asking questions in Twitter, Facebook and blogs about their donations and endorsements of their favourite charities. After every crisis, the social media for social cause becomes a more effective medium to spread the word.
Negative Effects of Social Media
There are always two sides of every coin. Social media is just a tool or mean for people to use. It is still up to the users on how to use this tool (just like a knife, can help you to cut food or hurt others). Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project and Elon University's Imagining the Internet Center conducted a study on "The Future of Online Socializing" from the highly engaged, diverse set of respondents to an online, opt-in survey consisted of 895 technology stakeholders and critics. The negative effects presented by the respondents included time spent online robs time from important face-to-face relationships; the internet fosters mostly shallow relationships; the act of leveraging the internet to engage in social connection exposes private information; the internet allows people to silo themselves, limiting their exposure to new ideas; and the internet is being used to engender intolerance.
Some respondents also highlighted that there will be development of some new psychological and medical syndromes that will be "variations of depression caused by the lack of meaningful quality relationships", and a "new world society". The term, "Social Networking", has begun to deceive the users to believe they are social creatures. For instance, spending a couple of hours using Farmville and chatting with friends concurrently does not convert into social skills. People become dependent on the technology and forget how to socialise in face-to-face context. The online personality of a person might be totally different from his/her offline character, causing chaos when the two personalities meet. It is apparent in online dating when the couple gets together in face-to-face for the first time. Their written profiles do not clearly represent their real-life characters. It is more enticing for people to type something that others want to hear than saying the truth.
Besides the "friendship", creators of social networking sites and users redefine the term, "privacy" in the Internet as well. The challenge in data privacy is to share data while protecting personally identifiable information. Almost any information posted on social networking sites is permanent. Whenever someone posts pictures or videos on the web, it becomes viral. When the user deletes a video from his/her social network, someone might have kept it and then posted it onto other sites like YouTube already. People post photographs and video files on social networking sites without thinking and the files can reappear at the worst possible time. In 2008, a video of a group of ACJC students hazing a female student in school on her birthday was circulated and another video of a SCDF recruit being "welcomed" (was hosed with water and tarred with shoe polish) to a local fire station made its way online.
Much news has been reported about online privacy breach in Facebook and Facebook is constantly revising their privacy policy and changing their privacy controls for the users. Interestingly, even when users delete their personal information and deactivate their Facebook account, Facebook will still keep that information and will continue to use it for data mining. A reporter asked whether the data will at least be anonymized. The Facebook representative declined to comment.
In the corporate world, human resource managers can access Facebook or MySpace to get to know about a candidate's true colours, especially when job seekers do not set their profiles to private. Research has found that almost half of employers have rejected a potential worker after finding incriminating material on their Facebook pages. Some employers have also checked the candidates' online details in Facebook pages to see if they are lying about their qualifications. Nowadays, younger generations have a complete disregard for their own privacy, opening doors to unwelcome predators or stalkers.

Measure Social Media Marketing: Learn the Best Way to Track Social Media Traffic in Google Analytics
If you have general knowledge of Google Analytics, you likely already know how to pull reports showing how much traffic Facebook is driving to your website. This is basic. But what if you wanted an executive-level view of how your social media efforts collectively are moving your business forward? What if you wanted to know whether the time and resources you're allocating to managing social campaigns is having a positive effect not only on helping you get noticed, but in driving revenue?
The best way to track social media traffic in Google Analytics is by creating a custom segment. This view provides a comprehensive dashboard of all traffic across all your social media channels. Google calls this an Advanced Segment. It's an advanced feature but we'll make it simple by outlining the steps below.
First, drop the pull-down menu titled "All Visits".
Click "Create a new advanced segment" link.
Click "Traffic Sources" under the "Dimensions" tab. Drag the "Source" bar over. Set the condition to "Contains". And in the "Value" field type "facebook".
Repeat this third step for "Twitter", "LinkedIn", "YouTube", "Flickr", and other social sites. You'll want to add social networks, URL shorteners (bit.ly, ow.ly, goo.gl), social media dashboards (HootSuite, twitterfeed, etc), and bookmarking and sharing services (Stumbleupon, Tumblr, Digg, etc). Also include iterations such as "touch.facebook.com", "tweet", and "m.facebook.com". At this stage, it is helpful to run a report showing your top 500 or so traffic sources and look for any social sites you may have missed. If you're not sure if a site is a social network, take a look at Wikipedia's gigantic list of two-hundred plus social sites.
The last step is to name your custom segment and save it. Call is something like "Social Media Sites".
To run your report, go to the Advanced Segments drop-down menu and select "Social Media Sites". Now, run your reports like you ordinarily would, this time choosing your new segment. You'll now be able to run custom reports.
A few questions to examine:
Which social networks generate the most conversions? If you have goals and funnels set up in Google Analytics, you'll be able to see conversion rates and monetary value of the traffic you're receiving.
Which social networks are bringing in people who stay the longest and view the most pages? These may be some of your best prospects. Consider putting more of your time and energy in using this network.
To what extent does your social traffic correlate with your search traffic? An increase in search traffic can be a result of more social activity - the more people are hearing about you on the social web, they get to know you, and then do a search to find out even more about you. A strong social media presence can build a company's influence and reach.
