Social Media Revolution

What do you know of social media? Tweeting, sharing, messaging and connecting. Is that all? Earlier social media was a fad but today it is more than that. Being a fad – social media platform grouped the different arenas of world population making a huge network of friends and family online.
But the entry of organisations and companies in order to spread the word about their product and services has improved the social media existence. Today social media is a big platform to build business online. Facebook has been reported to top Google’s weekly traffic. Social media have helped hearts conjoin and tie in for a pious wedding knot. Facebook has helped bring back old relations together. Since last year Facebook has shifted to increase 40% ROI growth.
Social media has helped people find jobs or in fact jobs find them. It has been reported that about a 95% people online have been hired through Linkedin.com.
It isn’t easy to reach millions of users and maintain the trust and relativity with them. It took about 38 years for Television to reach a population of 50 million people in the world. Internet took 4 years to touch people’s heart. But Facebook is recorded to attract more than 200 million users in less than a year and is now a proud community with more than 500 million users.
•50% of mobile internet users in UK plug in to Facebook for daily updates and messages.
•Universities have stopped distribution of email accounts instead they have started using eReaders, iPads and Tablets.
•Google being the #1 search engine Youtube is notified as the second largest search engine.
•There are over 200,000,000 blogs found on the World Wide Web. 50% people on web blog or tweet daily.
•About 70% of the ages 18 – 34 have viewed live TV on web.
Social media has emerged as a new business expansion trend as socialnomics count on only 14% of people relying on the Google rank and advertisements but the majority population on earth depends and trusts the idea of publicity through the word of mouth.
Advertising on social media like Facebook or promoting your community or ad or blog or just anything on Orkut spreads to users in a random manner.
We do not find the products and services online but they find us and reach us through social media. Social media works on the concept of listen first and sell second .
