Twitter Will Offer Cheaper Business Verification Packages for SMBs

A quick update for brands on Twitter - SMBs won’t have to sign up to the new $1000 per month Verification for Organizations program to get a gold checkmark in the app. Twitter’s been pushing for brands to confirm their official presence by signing up to the program, but according to Twitter chief Elon Musk, there’s also a cheaper version in the works for SMBs, which will also provide a form of in-stream verification for their account. We will have a lower cost tier for small businesses, but need to manage the onboarding of organizations carefully to prevent fraud. The $1000/month is meant for larger organizations.— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 6, 2023 So it won’t cost $1000 per month for all businesses to get verified, just big businesses, as per Musk.

Instagram Tests New Process to Help Brands Source UGC in the App

Instagram’s testing out a new option that will help brands discover relevant UGC in the app that they can then share as examples to better promote their products in-stream.

Leveraging Emotional Marketing with Influencer Marketing

It is a no-brainer that emotion is one of the most significant factors that contribute to the success of any marketing campaign.  If you disagree, then do thorough market research, and you’ll find this to be true. Admit it. Emotion is the reason your consumers purchase products that may not even want or be good for them.  Logic doesn’t play into action that much. It’s not how you make lifelong customers. Think about it. Even if you know that it’s not healthy to eat at fast-food restaurants, you still take your family on weekends because their marketing campaigns tug at your heartstrings and promise not only delicious food but more importantly, fun times and great memories for the whole family. The emotions they evoke drive customers to take action. In the very first neuroscience study cond...

How the YouTube Algorithm Works in 2023: The Complete Guide

If you believe in free will, we have terrible news — well, at least when it comes to YouTube. Because YouTube’s algorithm for recommendations drives 70% of what people watch on the platform.

Twitter Unveils New Doge Logo

If you’ve logged onto Twitter today, you would have noticed Elon Musk’s latest ‘hilarious’ prank. As you can see in this image, the Twitter icon in the app has been replaced by the Doge character, which is also the symbol for Dogecoin, the meme-based cryptocurrency that Musk has been a big supporter of in the past. Why? No one really knows, though some have speculated that it’s an April Fool’s Day joke, just a couple days late. For his part, Musk says that this was based on idea that was proposed to him some time back. So is it ‘sickkk’ as Elon says? I mean, I’m not sure that many organizations would be willing to risk diluting their brand recognition in this way, and I doubt that anyone else that had invested $44 billion into a company would consider the same. But when you’re one of ...

Elon Musk Outlines Roadmap for ‘Twitter 2.0’ in New Slide Deck

Elon Musk has provided some more insight into his evolving plan for Twitter, which will now also see the company embark on a hiring push, after firing 65% of its workforce, in order to get in more development and engineering talent to help realize Musk’s grand vision. And with that, Musk has put together a new pitch deck, of sorts, which aims to clarify his current plan. Which, as noted, is evolving quickly, so it may end up being totally different, it may be indicative - we don’t know for sure as yet. But he is slowly clarifying and honing in on specific elements. Here’s a look at the collection of slides that Musk has put together to present his current strategic outline for the app. As you can see in this first slide, Musk’s presentation shows that new account sign-ups are at an all-ti...

Google Wins Court Case Against Russian-Based Bot Scam Group

Google has won a significant court case against a group that had been operating a network of bots to manipulate its systems, which could have major implications for future cybercrime cases. The case relates to a Russian-based group called Glupteba, which had used bot exploits to infiltrate millions of Windows devices. The Glupteba system stole user credentials and cookies, mined cryptocurrencies on infected hosts, and deployed proxy components that would target Windows systems and IoT devices. The malware was primarily distributed through questionable download links for pirated software. Such cases are difficult to litigate, largely due to the perpetrators living in foreign nations, and thus, outside the jurisdiction of US law - but in this instance, the court found in Google’s favor: ...

5 Easy Steps to Conduct a YouTube Audit

Have a YouTube channel? There needs to be more than just creating and sharing engaging content if you want it to grow and become popular. You have to check and evaluate its performance. However, even after following a clear strategy, many channels don’t see any new subscribers, or the channel does not develop or does it very slowly. Unfortunately, 97% of YouTube channel creators fail, and lack of auditing is one of the main reasons why. What’s the problem? What are you doing wrong? All you need to do is conduct a YouTube audit. YouTube has 2 billion logged-in users every month, so you should always stay tuned to their preferences, interests, and expectations. Auditing, in turn, is an excellent way to get a clear plan of action and fix mistakes. Below you will find tips that will help you c...

Which Social Platforms Work Best for Each Industry? [Infographic]

Look, I’m not sure that I agree with all of these categorizations - and I am sure that this will spark some debate among social media marketing folk. But the team from Khoros recently conducted a thorough review of social platform demographics, and based on their findings they’ve published the below chart which outlines the best and worst platforms for brands in each industry vertical. But as with all things digital marketing, it depends. There are no doubt retail brands that have seen huge success on Twitter, for example, which Khoros says is not best suited to tweets. A lot comes down to each business’s individual approach and strategy, and with that in mind, there probably isn’t a definitive way to say that your business shouldn’t bother with this or that platform.

The Complete Elon Musk–Twitter Saga

So, Elon Musk is now the ‘Chief Twit’ as he says, with the billionaire taking ownership of the platform late Thursday, and for now at least, appointing himself as interim CEO. Whether he stays on as chief, or appoints somebody else to that role, remains to be seen, but thus far, it does appear as though Musk plans to take a hands-on role in re-aligning the app in his vision.  Musk’s first order of business was to fire several top execs. The loss of so much experience will hurt the company, no doubt. But Musk has an alternative view on what Twitter should be, so they were unlikely to ever see eye-to-eye anyway. And the departing execs will take home millions in payouts, which should soften the blow, before they’re re-appointed at another tech firm in similar roles. Musk’s second key order o...

New Report Looks at the Growth of the Creator Economy, and Opportunities of New Platforms

Social platforms are going all-in on the ‘Creator Economy’, adding in a range of new monetization tools and promotion features that are designed to help platform stars showcase their value for brands, or sell their products direct in-app. The value of this is two-fold: for the creators, it enables them to keep doing what they love, and connect with like-minded people in social apps, while for the platforms themselves, it also keeps more original content flowing in, which, in turn, keeps their respective audiences coming back more often. And for brands, that can also present new opportunities to utilize the latest platform tools and features, by partnering with creative talent that’s already well-accustomed with best practices, and has a track record of creating engaging content among you...

The Top Instagram Photo Editing Trends in 2022

On Instagram, photo editing trends move pretty dang fast. Just cast your mind back to those days when your feed was flooded with heavily filtered, square-cropped photos. Though it was only a couple of years ago, in 2022, that style looks so dated that you might as well be posting a daguerreotype. Your average Instagram user spends almost half an hour each day on the app, and they’re smart enough to spot content that hasn’t managed to keep up with the times. That means last year’s interesting and original photo composition is this year’s tired cliche. To hold your audience’s attention, you’ve gotta keep it fresh and stay up to date with the latest Instagram photo editing trends.

Snapchat Says that Even Basic AR Executions Can Drive Audience Response

The use of AR is growing, with Snapchat reporting that over 250 million of its users – or 72% of its active user base - engage with AR elements in the app every day. As AR technology continues to evolve, so too do the ways in which it can be used for more creative, engaging applications, including promotions – and as more brands lean into these types of advanced activations, that then raises the bar for others to also follow suit. But creating AR isn’t as easy as, say, writing a blog post or creating a video clip. It takes technical knowledge, system know-how, it takes professional skill to create unique brand experiences in this more advanced medium. Right? Well, that’s not entirely correct. On Snapchat, one of the leaders in AR, you can create basic AR experiences, even branded ones,...

The 5 Biggest Differences Between Facebook and Instagram Ads

It is no secret that social media is often the go-to method if a brand is looking to advertise itself and reach new customers. Among all the social media platforms, Facebook and Instagram stand out from the rest. And why should they not? After all, both platforms have nearly 2 billion daily active users. According to HubSpot’s Social Media Marketing Report, roughly 4 out of 5 marketers buy paid advertising on Facebook. The same report also reveals that while Instagram is behind Facebook in terms of marketer activity, the platform is set to attract more marketers in the future. However, between the two, which would be a better option if you wish to dedicate some of your marketing budget to run ads? As expected, both Facebook and Instagram ads have their pros and cons, meaning that brands ha...

Instagram Confirms that Videos Under 60 Seconds in Stories will No Longer Be Split into Segments

Instagram continues its gradual process of merging its video products into one, with the announcement that videos in Stories that are under 60 seconds in length will no longer be split into 15-second segments in the app. As you can see in this in-app alert, posted by social media expert Matt Navarra, when you update your IG app, you’ll get a notification letting you know that your videos in Stories will no longer be cut up, making it a more seamless viewing experience. Instagram’s been testing the update with selected users over the past year, as part of its broader process to integrate its video options, in line with the short-form video shift and general engagement trends. Last October, Instagram retired its IGTV brand, as it combined IGTV and feed videos into one format, while in Jul...

How Brands Can Support Indigenous Communities on Social—the Right Way

There is a growing interest among businesses, large and small, to add their voices to the nationwide acknowledgment of the trauma inflicted upon Indigenous children at Canada’s Indian Residential Schools. This was amplified in 2021 with the location of nearly a thousand unmarked graves at sites of the now-shuttered institutions—and we know thousands more have yet to be discovered. On National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, it’s important for Indigenous people (and, frankly, for non-Indigenous people) to see businesses and brands honour those who lost their lives through the 165-year program of assimilation. It’s also important for us as Indigenous people to see them pay tribute to those who survived their years at the notorious schools. But deploying the hashtag #TruthAndReconciliation...

What is the Best Time to Post on Instagram in 2022?

Listen to this blog The latest social media statistics prove that Instagram is a powerhouse of engagement. You already know it and you want to reap the most of it. The reality, these days, hits you a little differently, right? Despite putting in great effort and time to create and publish quality posts, your content is unable to grab any eyeballs. Same is the fate of multiple marketers, because they avoid one crucial factor in the mix – the best time to post on Instagram. It is one of the crucial factors behind erratic engagement rates. The logic is quite simple, your post should go live at the time when most of your audience is active on Instagram to engage with it. So, what is the best time to post on Instagram? Well, this has a short answer and a long answer. The short answer is that t...

LinkedIn Looks to Improve Messaging Interactions with ‘Focused Inbox’, Adds New Sales Analytics Tools

LinkedIn’s looking to help members better manage their LinkedIn inbox, by filtering out more of the junk, with a new ‘Focused Inbox’ UI, which will essentially re-route less valuable messages into an ‘Other’ tab in your LinkedIn message stream. As you can see in this example, LinkedIn’s Focused Inbox update will now provide you with two separate InMail tabs – ‘Focused’ and ‘Other’. Though ‘Other’ could just as easily be labeled ‘Spam’ – and it’ll also be interesting to see where LinkedIn’s Sponsored InMails end up in this separation. Like, a lot of those are junk too, but I’m guessing that LinkedIn’s not going to shift them over to the ‘You Can Ignore These Messages’ section if brands are paying to promote them. As explained by LinkedIn: “[The Focused Inbox] is an intelligent, dual-tabb...

I Tried Instagram Automation (So You Don’t Have To): An Experiment

Has the elusive unicorn of Instagram automation ever tempted you? We can’t blame you. Instagram automation software sites paint a pretty picture of your phone blowing up organically with likes and comments. Your social media scales effortlessly while you sit back and relax. Brands like Nike, NASA, and whoever runs Obama’s social networks are begging you to consult. And, oh, who’s that in your DMs? Taika Waititi and Doja Cat both asking for a follow back? Wow, this is everything you dreamed of, right? Wrong. I tried it out, and not only did Doja Cat not return any of my messages, but I also lost time, money, and a bit of dignity. All is not lost; there are legitimately helpful Instagram automation tools. We’ll get to them at the end of this article. But first, here’s what happened when I tr...

YouTube’s previewed some new analytics options coming to Creator Studio, which will provide more data on what your audience is interested in, based on their search and engagement activity, and how they’re interacting with different topics across the app. The new elements will be part of YouTube’s ‘Search Insights’, which it first previewed late last year.
