What is a Social Community?

Social Communities utilize the grouping of individuals into specific groups, like small rural communities or a neighborhood subdivision, if you will. Although social networking is possible in person, especially in the workplace, universities, and high schools, it is most popular online.

This is because unlike most high schools, colleges, or workplaces, the internet is filled with millions of individuals who are looking to meet other people, to gather and share first-hand information and experiences about cooking, golfing, gardening, developing friendships or professional alliances, finding employment, business-to-business marketing and even groups sharing information about the end of the Mayan calendar and the Great Shift to arrive December 21-2012. The topics and interests are as varied and rich as the story of our world.

We can create or help you create a successful, thriving social community!

We Start With Research - Before we jump into creating a social community, we start by seeing what's out there in a related niche, we join those communities, and then observe the activity. we note what we like and dislike about the way the community operates, from the platform to the members and the leaders. We note which communities keep us coming back for more and how they do it.

We Provide Unique Value - Notice I didn't just say value, but unique value. We think about the communities we have researched, and then try to figure out that one thing that no one else is offering that we can. One example would be creating a community that's more specifically focused by doing a little brainstorming.

Instead of just blogging, narrow down to business blogging, then narrow down again to B2B business blogging, and then further down to B2B business blogging in the service industry. While it's super-specific and might not allow for a huge following, it IS something unique which will intrigue your members.

We Address Your Members' Concerns - This one may get tough, depending on how many members you will have in your community, but it's always important to acknowledge any concerns that your future members may have in terms of site functionality, rules or other members. By doing this, we let them know that there's someone actively in charge and always willing to cater to the members' needs when possible.
What's the benefit of creating your own Social Community?
Driving Traffic to Your Site - Let's say that you start a forum on your own domain. If you're successful in creating a popular community, you'll be driving a lot of traffic to your website. The traffic, in turn, will lead to the next benefit.

Increasing Your Income - There are several ways to monetize a community. The direct approach is to actually charge your community membership fees for entry into the community or advanced privileges, such as the ability to promote themselves more within the community and premium content.

If your community is tied into a business, having the additional traffic to your site is bound to lead to converting community members to clients, or getting clients to join the community so you can later upsell them with additional products or services.

Then, of course, there are the indirect forms of monetization, such as capitalizing on the additional traffic to your website and offering advertisers banner space.

Becoming an Authority - If you become a successful community leader, you could become an authority in your industry as the administrator of a thriving community.

What does a Social Community do for it's members?

• Gives them a sense of belonging. Members get to feel they are somewhere where they belong. The real irony of communities is they don't change members. They're simply places where members can finally be themselves - more individualistic. They have security and the feeling of being included as a member of a group.


• Mutual support. They can receive support from others with the power to give such support. They help people handle major life problems or open up new opportunities such as jobs and provide resources that members otherwise wouldn't have access to.


• Greater influence. Knowing they are participating in a group that has a bigger influence than they alone could have. High levels of self-efficacy and self-worth. Communities also allow members to have more influencer over other people.


• Exploration. They allow members to explore things with each other they previously wouldn't have been able to. New ideas, resources, experiences are shared and discussed leading to crowd accelerated innovation.

What is Viral Marketing?

Operating a a successful Social Community, requires a viral marketing campaign. Do a search on Google and you will be amazed at the millions of pages that talk about Viral Marketing.

Essentially, viral marketing spreads on its own from one person who learns about the idea to another. The creators of a viral campaign release it to a seed group of people, and then the campaign spreads wildly until the group it targets has been saturated or exhausted.

This is sometimes also called a "viral loop." The key is that every person who comes into contact with the idea or marketing message spreads it to at least one other person. Once that happens, the idea is self-replicating.

The rate at which the "virus" spreads depends on how many people on average each preceding person shares the idea with (a viral coefficient, if you will), and how long it takes until that next person also shares the idea.

Any sharing of a marketing message from one audience member to another might be considered viral marketing, whereas sharing by each member to at least one other member is known as a viral loop.

Think of viral marketing as a multiplier on your marketing efforts. If you achieve a viral loop, then that multiplier becomes as large as your total target audience.

Benefits Of Viral Marketing

While there are many methods to design, develop and distribute your marketing material, it is vital with a viral marketing campaign to reach as many people as possible and as quickly as possible. Given this, it is vital to choose a professional viral marketing company because they have the inside knowledge, knowhow and expertise in distributing information quickly and with more force and spread than an individual can.

When choosing the viral marketing company, then you should be careful, take your time and prepare. A good internet marketing company will need to take their time to adequately prepare and plan for the rollout of your viral marketing campaign to the masses.

What is Social Network Monetization?

Website monetization is the process of converting your existing and future traffic or members, into a reliable residual revenue stream.

Web marketing and search engine optimization are topics that are at the forefront of all businesses, large and small and many Social Communities are looking for ways to "make money on the Internet". These are not people looking to take their bricks-and-mortar business online to expand, or sell things they have manufactured, but instead people who are looking to create revenue from having a website.

It's not an impossible goal, but it's not as easy as the spam e-mail you receive would have you believe. It takes real work, just like any other business, and the rewards can be somewhat shaky if you are depending on free traffic from the search engines to build your business. But done correctly, there are some tried and true ways to make your website turn a profit.

A few basic techniques used for monetization:

• Advertising supported - This is the main way social networks are trying to generate revenue. It's good for the users as they get free access in exchange for seeing a few ads. This has the potential to be great for advertisers, too, as they can often target users based on various demographic info and interests.


• Subscription Model - This involves charging users a fee to premium VIP content on a Social Community site.


• Sponsorship - Instead of just having advertisers. Sponsorship could be something as simple as giving Brand X complete ownership of a contest or section of the site, or a sponsor could take things further and partner with the site to bring users something unique and valuable.


• Affiliate Marketing - Affiliate marketing is basically selling an outside party's goods/services and getting a commission or fee for each sale that is made. In my opinion, this is an under-utilized method of monetization.


• Ecommerce - It would be pretty easy to add a "store" to a Social Community website and feature relevant products. Many Social Community have utilizing this method successfully.

Website Monetization Strategies

If you have an existing site, an overview site analysis can point out weaknesses in your site. A site analysis may include usability, SEO, marketing, and technical issues along with practical suggestions to improve the site.

Monetizing an existing website can produce significant benefits. Often, with just a little extra code added to the website or in emails, a company can monetize it's website content and/or it's offline customer base.

Tailored Website Monetization Strategy

We create customized strategies for monetizing based on the needs of individual clients. There are a number of tools and techniques, from affiliate marketing program to contextual advertising like Google's Adsense that can be used without sacrificing the company's brand or reputation. In addition, we can work with companies that have offline resources to effectively create revenue by monetizing these untapped opportunities.
