Empower your community to talk to about you and have them build the social proof of your business’s value. Let’s use Twitter as the example in this one. Facebook can be used to help gather video testimonials and customer photos by allowing your fans to upload their own content and link to reviews of your products.

For example, one of my Friendster aliases is Times Square. I needed to differentiate Digg from social media because they actually are part of a distinctive community (and as you know, I’m very passionate about Digg so it really did deserve its own category). Read that again if it didn’t make sense.

If they have too many friends and not many followers, for example, you might not want to follow them. You might also want to see that they are future upstanding members of the community. Let’s say I am a competitor of the guy behind the blue widget factory (@BlueWidgets) because I own red widgets. Tweet frequency.

We are aggregating vast amounts of data, and in our integration with Facebook for example, we don’t open up everything we get because some of it just isn’t relevant. “Who Should I Know&# for example, is a relevant and important question that needs to be better answered. It’s in our DNA.

You have to create content, be part of many communities, and proceed incrementally. Too often, the humanization part gets overlooked in an effort to create a “user-generated video contest widget that we’ll launch on Facebook with support from Ustream.&# That’s not a “wave the magic wand&# scenario.

These scenarios come to fruition in spontaneous communities, on social networks, and other self-service tools – all thanks to the availability of low cost technology and access to the world wide web. You can also not use the tools correctly or not behave appropriately within communities around the tools and market poorly.

In my previous role as a online community advisor, our demographic was an inverted bell curve, we had about an equal number of 60+ and 20- members. When one views community contributions as a standalone, which we had during an extended software upgrade where the age functionality was disabled, many amazing things occurred.

Thanks to books like The New Community Rules , written by yours truly, Engage , Social Media 101 , and others, social media marketing is, for the time being, going to still be on people’s minds as they discover this bright and sunny marketing opportunity. Affiliate marketing, for example, comes to mind.

Localism – Join your community (city) and post up advice, list real estate properties for sale, and talk about local events with other real estate pro’s and local businesses. HouseTubeTv – Like YouTube, but meant ONLY for real estate. LinkedIn -Same idea as FaceBook but much more professional oriented.

your initial examples are problematic in my opinion: (A) If you or your client does not have an advertising budget, then how *are* they paying you to email people? As such, you deserve to call the shots within reason, and the first illustration you gave is a fine examples of this. My focus with this blog has always been community.

It caused me to pause (mid-chew), and mentally scroll through a list of examples that fit his assertion that boring information is captivating when it’s humanized in some way. About a week ago, I was hungrily feasting on Jay’s post about why info is only boring if we make it that way.

The big language barrier still exists, for example, when you refer to Java (“not coffee, not the island, but the programming language!&# ) Semantic search : webmasters may not spend a ridiculous amount of time trying to describe what things mean since there’s no motivation for them to do so. Maybe that’s a bad example.

Reply Tom May 26, 2010 at 2:52 pm Some people make it so you have to like the page to see something in a tab, for example a video, How do i do this? Beyond that, if you specify the specific user id in that field it should show properly. My name is. Any hints please.

I have actually heard this exact sentiment from several companies and agencies recently, wondering whether they should increase their Facebook efforts because the size of the member community is just so overwhelming. If your community is there, then you should be too, and the question is really rhetorical, isn’t it?

As Gilbert pointed out, our own intersection is a good example. Concepts under consideration include a variety of different search results (not just by time, but possibly by relevancy or impact), analytics, RSS feeds, widgets and more. My friend Todd Lynch ( @prtodd ) mentioned Kurrently to me on Friday. that’s a big deal.

Track things like audience/community sentiment (positive/negative) if you want to map effort to results. Pay attention to which widgets you use in your sidebar. Use social networks respectfully to share the best of your content, in a community-appropriate setting. Remember that community and marketplace are two different things.

I believe we’re going to shift back to thinking customer service and community management are the core and not the fringe. I believe we’re going to move our communications practices back in-house for lots of what is currently pushed out to agencies and organizations. Disagree with me in the comments. Dr. Wright.
