Social Media 101 - Set up an Instagram Business Profile
Last time on Social Media 101 we learned how to create a Facebook business page. This time I will be walking you through the process of creating an Instagram Business Profile.
Instagram is a photo and video sharing platform that was acquired by Facebook in 2012. In the time since the acquisition the platform has seen massive growth, reaching over 600 million users in 2016. They've also added a number of features recently that make the platform even more valuable for engaging and marketing to users including, Instagram Stories, Live Video, and shoppable posts. The first step in getting started on your Instagram strategy is to create a Business Profile for your brand. By doing this you unlock a number of features, analytics being a major one, that will allow you to better gauge the success of your Instagram efforts. The process of creating a business profile is an easy one but it does require that you create a Instagram account for your brand and that you already have a Facebook Business Page.

5 New (Pre-Christmas) Social Platform Features Updates You Need to Know About
Even as we head into the final days before the holiday break for most, the major social platforms are still releasing new tests and updates, with the arrival of Facebook’s new Messenger group video chats, live-streaming direct from tweets and the ability to save posts on Instagram. Of course, not all of these updates are major, not every one will have an impact on your strategy. But then again, impact is relative - what’s minor to you and your business could be huge to someone else.
As part of our ongoing effort to provide you with the best coverage of the latest social media news and insights, we feel it’s important to cover all of these updates and tests - but sometimes they’re not worthy of a their own individual post.

Google’s Top Search Ranking Factors of 2016, According to Searchmetrics Study
Searchmetrics has released their annual study of Google’s top search ranking factors. The “comparative benchmark” for SEOs illustrates how ranking factors are becoming more personalized, content relevance is paramount, technical factors are still as important as ever, and backlinks are seeing a downward trend in importance.
I will recap some of the top sections of the report in this post, but the exceptionally detailed 63-page report deserves to be read in full if you have the time to do so.

4 Ways to Use Live Video on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook for Your Business
Whether you’re an individual blogger or a big organization, building a social media presence for your brand is becoming an important part of the marketing mix. But building a social media audience takes time, effort, and relies on you having enough visual content to post on your networks. In the past year we’ve seen videos take off in reach and engagement, and now live videos are taking a lead. Live videos are broadcasts that happen in real time, and the results I’ve seen with my clients are amazing.
Take a look at the image below – a screenshot of Facebook post analytics for one of my agency’s clients – the top pieces of content with the most reach on this Facebook Page are (drum roll please…) live videos. And the engagement isn’t bad either.

28 Experts Share Social Care Predictions for 2017: Part 1
Social media is the first marketing channel where customers can actually talk back. This is a new concept for traditional brand marketers, who are used to being able to completely control the brand message with TV and print advertising that is akin to shouting with a megaphone. Consumers have a choice – and a voice – on social media; they don’t have to listen to brands, and they're free to “talk back”, making it a two-way conversation. This shifts the power from the brand to the consumer, and consumers today expect to be able to engage with brands wherever and whenever they want. A brand’s response (or lack thereof) plays a big role in customer satisfaction and loyalty.
I asked 27 social media and customer service experts three questions about what happened in social care in 2016 and what might be coming in 2017. Their responses – along with my own – will be shared in three different posts, starting here with the first question:
"Why do social media marketers need to care about customer service?"
