Social Media Search — Finding Information across Channels
Why Your Connections Matter
For consumers, social media search enables them to find answers to questions from across their social media networks. Since reports show 74 percent of us are using social media and the majority of us use more than one social media network, we have access to quite an impressive source of information. But organizations also are using social media search to find information from across multiple channels. They are constantly searching social media to identify trends, influencers, sentiment and intent, just to name a few. Never before have all of us had so much access to such a massive data source.
For organizations, it is imperative they can connect to multiple social media channels because no one channel offers a complete picture. If you’re going to do a social media search, you must have as much social media as possible.
Social Media Search Has Its Benefits:
- Find information from more than one source: If you’re only looking at Facebook to find your information, you’re missing the estimated 304 million Twitter users. The intent of social media search is to offer access to multiple social media networks.
- Identify influencers: When you look across the various social media platforms, you can often identify key influencers who are moving the needle on sentiment or have established themselves as leaders in some capacity. Organizations can use this information to develop engagement strategies, or simply to keep an eye on the competition.
- Get information quickly: Access to social networks means organizations are able to find what they are looking for quickly. The information is publicly available 24 hours a day, so you never have to wait to find what you need.
- Receive real-time information: Social media is always on, always streaming — meaning you have access to real-time information whenever you need it.
