Social Media and Twitter is a great source for information but who should you follow? Rather than spending time going through the usual list here are some different names on Twitter to check out. Before I get there, I looked into the social media theme for the week. Social Media is a big conversion topic to help understand what people are talking about we have created a Buzzgraph around Social Media. I looked at the conversations or mentions related to social media and mapped them out.
It is interesting to note that the main topic around social media is promotion and business promotion. The key links around social media are: customer, businesses, network, advertising, brand and market. Does this mean that a large part of social media is used to promote business? Here are a few of the key conversions with people mentioning Social Media.
“the next step would be to build a website around your niche market, optimize your keywords, build quality links and promote your website.”
“check out this blog post about how popular social media is right now and how popular it should be in the future.. 22% of online time spent with social media. 75% of u.s.”
“internet households visited a social networking site in may 2010. 22% of the time spent online is attributed to social networking sites. 55% have at least one or more social networking profiles..”
