Social Trending
-
Hey,
Just wondering what tools people recommend for finding out trending content on social media?
Thanks
-
I would recommend Klout. It has a list of new and hot posts and content.

Hi Radi!
Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any tools that do what you're looking for, but you could always check out the trending section that appears on the right side of your Facebook newsfeed. Not sure if that's too obvious, but I thought I'd throw it out there just in case.

Hi Radi
No I don't believe any of the above tools do what you are looking for, not sure if there is anything that will do exactly what you want anymore, there used to be many tools that did this like 'Its Trending' but most of these are no longer available.
Maybe some of the Social Monitoring/Listening Tools will do what you need, hope you find a solution and would be interested to know if you do.

To make that a little clearer, we've been thinking about tools that show which posts within Facebook are doing well. Videos with most views in a particular niche for example. None of the mentioned tools do that do they?

There are quite a few tool out there that can assist with finding trending content but a few that we have used in the past or still use are:
Buzz Feed: Can be a bit annoying at times but the editorial staff do try and stay on top of trending news.
BuzzSumo: Is another good one especially for looking at what content has done well in the past year.
Google Trends: Which we find is invaluable for tracking trends and content across the internet and too be fair is an undervalued and underrated tool.
You might also want to take a look at such things as Reddit.
Hope this helps and good luck with your search.

Manual submission vs automated submission to social bookmarking sites for blog posts
Howdy Mozzers! Say we're creating great content on our blog and would like this content to be seen and shared by as many people possible. Should we submit our blog posts manually to social book marking sites or use an automated service like Only Wire? The advantage of using automation is obvious, saves time on submission. Are there disadvantages? Is google bot going to raise an eyebrow and give us a dirty look? Cheers! MozAddict

Is it possible to modify the default social sources in Google Analytics?
In the newest Google Analytics there's a section called 'Social' which tracks traffic from FB, Twitter and other social sites. For some reason it doesn't include Instagram (which is the one that matters to me, though I'm sure there are many others that it doesn't include either.) Is there a way to modify that and add Instagram as a social source?

How to reach beyond main social accounts
My blog is still very young - and I feel like a total newbie, but I'm working at it consistently. I've got 21 posts that I've put up since the beginning of January (except for 2 from October) and another in the pipeline and of course, plans to continue on this way. I've been building up my confidence and feel like it's just about time to branch out farther than my Google+, FaceBook, Twitter and LinkedIn accounts (which I've been doing regularly). My hope is to gain more visitors by publicizing the posts in some other environments. I would so appreciate some suggestions on how I might do that. And also, is it too soon? I don't want to jump the gun before there's an respectable/acceptable amount of content.

Value in content from website being shared across social media?
I asked this question a couple of days ago. Would be great if anyone has some good insight: I write content on my site, which I immediately share across Twitter, FB and Google+. Will Google view me as active on social media with this onsite content I distribute across social media sites (basically creating duplicate info across social media, which already is on my site) or will I be seen as less active on social media since I do not write original content on the social media sites, but rather use content from my site and distribute across social media.

yaledoor.co.uk/ Their backlink profiles look quite spammy? as they mostly point to web directories So is there a gap that I can take advantage of? We have little budget for sponsored articles on sites like what anglian have been doing looking at the backlinks but are there any other articles that I could write for our site that would help improve quality links to the site for keywords such as conservatories, double glazing, pvc doors, pvc windows, composite doors Same with their social profiles they seem quite poor, what would be the best approach on Facebook and Twitter to attract local followers - the majority of social followers I have seen have been fellow marketers or rival companies on the follower lists of twitter Many Thanks0 -

Social Media Campaigns
Hey SEOmoz Community, I have a couple questions about social media campaigns. Which KPIs do you use for social media campaigns? How do you determine realistic campaign goals? I am looking at projecting the number of followers/fans and the amount of traffic a site can expect to see as a result of this growth. Any suggestions. Thanks! Geoff
