Social Media Optimization services are used to capitalize on the second generation of web services and technologies, a new level of connectivity often termed "Web 2.0." This buzzword for the new web experience refers to the many new socialization applications—such as Blogs, wiki communities, and social networking sites—that have changed the way consumers communicate and conduct business online.
While "Web 2.0" got its start as a recreational pastime, these new forms of connectivity have increasingly taken on a commercial importance, opening new channels of website traffic for businesses and forging new means of communication with customers.
This new web experience has seen an explosion of homemade and commercial video, rise in Blog usage, widgets, RSS Feeds, and podcasts. Sharing information and user generated content are at the center of these web applications, and search engines now rely heavily on their influence in determining search engine rankings and placements.
Accordingly, the growing segment of Social Media Optimization is gaining strength with respect to traditional SEO campaigns.
Path Interactive incorporates elements of Social Media Optimization into our traditional SEO programs and will help evaluate which social media channels make the most sense for your organization to target. From here, we can either provide consulting on implementing the strategy or actually execute all aspects of the project on the client's behalf.
Clients that have made early efforts to address these new channels of communication are seeing big payoffs from their efforts. Not only are potential customers coming through the reach of social media platforms, but the viral effect of their engagement is paying dividends when they share the news of a positive experience with these clients' website.
