When does a Facebook post become obsolete?

Posted by Adheeth On April - 25 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

Ever wondered what is the life of a Facebook Page update / post? In a new research conducted by Visibli, they have concluded that the Facebook posts(updates) receive 50% of their Likes within the first 1 hour 20 minutes of being published, 80% within the first 7 hours, and 95% within the first 22 hours.

This leaves us with an important question. How frequently brands should brands update their page so as to get maximum likes and engagement? I strongly feel a social media agency managing a facebook page has to typically update a page every 6-7 hours. This would ensure us that the content is fresh on the page and we can engage more fans in the next 7 hours.

Visibly has also published a detailed Facebook Fan engagement report here.

What Happens if Twitter acquires Tweet Deck?

Posted by Adheeth On April - 19 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

The latest buzz in Social Media Space is that twitter is reportedly looking to buy Tweet Deck for $US 50 Million. Though there are many reasons on the web as to why twitter wants to acquire tweet deck, I just want to evaluate what would happen if twitter acquires tweet deck. In case of such an acquisition, Idont see a possiblity of twitter closing down Tweet deck. They would rather continue to use Tweet deck and rather re-christen (probably to twitter) the software in the very next update after an acquisition.

Facts and Numbers for Acquistion

  • Tweet Deck has 10% of twitter’s 200 million user base. This 10% users of Tweet Deck are opinion leaders, powerful bloggers, social media marketers and twitter’s top users.
  • Uber Media also has 10% of twitter userbase through UberSocial, Twidroyd, Echofon and UberCurrent.

Why Twitter will retain Tweet Deck if acquired

  • To retain the 10% top twitter users
  • To leverage the expertise of Tweet Deck in desktop application and Social Media Tracking.

Migrate your Facebook Profile to a Fan Page

Posted by Adheeth On April - 4 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

Are you an upcoming celebrity and you have hit the Facebook ceiling of 5000 friends? You now have the option to migrate your facebook profile to a Fan Page. This would let you covert your friends to fans and let you acquire more fans without taking the extra pain.

You should note that only your profile photos will be moved and your friends would be converted as fans. Facebook will not move any other content. This means you will loose photos, notes and other data which are associated with the profile. The Facebook Profile to Fan Page tool might get better in the coming months which lets you migrate the entire content of your facebook profile.

You can convert your Facebook Profile to Fan Page Here.

Please note you cannot revert back your FAN Page to your Profile once you have converted from a profile and you will not be able to see updates from your facebook friends (fans now).
