Rashad Yazdanifard, Waqas Khalid Obeidy , Wan Fadzilah Wan Yusoff and Hossein Reza Babaei

Abstract:Internet marketing has always been a hot topic for researchers in the marketing field due to the ubiquity of the internet in the new economy and especially because of its increasing roles in various markets and industries.

Recently, a number of social networking websites such as Facebook amp; Twitter have been a center of attraction for regular internet users. In this paper we have tried to explain how this new trend of people joining social networks in large numbers have forced the marketing forces to understand the potential future marketing trends and the evolution of social networking and microblogging and form strategies accordingly.

Keywords:Social Networks, Microblogging, Online Marketing Trends.

1. Introduction

The Internet has radically brought the media to a global audience and it has changed the way people think, behave, react, earn and do their businesses. The methods of marketing have changed and improved gradually over the past years. In todayrsquo;s world, marketing has become much more

sophisticated and has entered into the world of technology.

Traditionally, businesses and firms launched marketing and advertising campaigns through printed media and audio-visuals targeted at the individuals. The effectiveness of this strategy is difficult to measure and could also prove costly. However, in todayrsquo;s consumer-conscious economy, small and medium sized businesses are searching for effective and savvy-cost effective ways to market their products and services and build a relationship with the consumers.

In recent years the Internet has emerged with surprisingly new possibilities for Marketers to sell their goods. The creation of social networking and microblogging sites such as MySpace, Facebook and Twitter, which allow social interaction and creation of virtual communities and hence generate a wider audience for targeting specific customer segments is one of the newest innovations in the use of the Internet and web technologies.

Initial researches on social marketing and microblogging suggest that the internet is also being used by consumers to quickly spread word of mouth on events and products and therefore adds a great deal to the marketing effectiveness. Nowadays, users spend a huge amount of time surfing over the social networks. A survey done by Jay Meattle in 2006 that ranks websites based on average time spent by a userrsquo;s, shows MySpace and Facebook among the top 10 websites. In 2010, the number of social networking websites has increased and consequently the number of users that visit these websites has tremendously increased.

2. Overview Of The Social Networks

Social networks are the actually virtual communities that are generally found over the web where members of common purposes or interest share an unlimited and unrestricted amount of information. These social networks have become increasingly popular over the past few years, providing a more efficient and user-friendly way to maintain social connections and share information in different forms and mediums, such as microblogging, status, mobile text alerts, blogs, instant messaging, and forums. While we hear the people around us all the time buzzing about Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, LinkedIn, therersquo;s a world of social networking tools beyond these most popular sites. StumbleUpon, Digg, and YouTube are gaining attraction among marketers looking to spread the message about their brands and provide useful content to loyal

followers; and communities such as discussion forums are proving to be a great way to link with other professionals and even potential and current clients.

Out of the hundreds of available options today, one of the most popular social networking sites in the United States is Facebook with over 500 million users as of July 2010. Founded in February 2004, it claims its members spend around 700 billion and more minutes every month on its website, and share more than 30 billion photographs, videos links to other websites, and articles. Another popular social networking site is MySpace, founded in August 2003, at present entertains 130 million registered users. The demographic profile for MySpace is younger and less affluent than Facebook. However, Twitter, founded in July 2006, is a microblogging website where every day users post millions of tweets, and it has approximately 75 million registered users. Similarly there are a number of other similar social networking websites that offer similar services such as Orkut, Friendster, Flickr, Digg and LinkedIn. However, LinkedIn has been specifically designed for finding and maintaining business connections. This type of social network is aimed much more at developing business links, finding employment and consultancy opportunities. Similar to other social networking sites, Youtube is also a video sharing website where users upload, download and comment on the video data shared every day by millions of other users.

As reported by Dutta and Fraser, Facebook has recently seen an increase in the registrations of people in their mid careers. It has been suggested that with the downturn in the global economy, people turn to Facebook in search of business contacts and safer employment prospects. The same thing is applied for other social networking sites as well. Similar to the Facebook, their user friendly nature allows them to serve nicely to the various marketing strategies.

3. What Is This Microblogging?

Generally Microblogging is assumed as the practice of posting small pieces of digital content which could be in the form of text, pictures, links, short vide

1.简介

移动互联网已经从根本上带来了给全球用户带来了新媒体形式,它改变了人们的思想,行为,反馈,就业,以及经商的方式。营销方法已经完全改变,在过去几年正在逐渐改善。在当今世界中,营销已经变得更加成熟,已经进入技术的世界。

传统上,中小企业通过印刷媒体和音频视觉展开营销和推广活动。这种策略的有效性难以衡量,并且成本高昂。然而,在当今以顾客意见为主要的经济模式中,中小型企业正在寻找其他推销产品服务,并建立与消费者有效精准关系的低成本方式。

近年来,移动互联网已经出现了新的令人惊叹的营销推广产品的方式。社交网络平台如MySpace,Facebook和Twitter,这为虚拟社区创建了社会互动和创新,从而创建更广泛的受众客户群,这也是在使用移动互联网时最新的效果。

通过对社交网站和微博营销效果的初步研究表明,移动互联网也正在被消费者迅速通过焦点事件和口碑相传,因此增加了更强的营销效果。如今,用户花费大量的时间在社交网络平台上进行网上冲浪。Jay Meattle在2006年基于用户的平均浏览时间对部分网站做了一项调查,结果显示MySpace和Facebook在前10个网站中。在2010年,社交网站的数量有所增加,因此访问这些网站的用户数量也大大增加。

2.社交网络平台概述

社交网络平台实际上是一个虚拟社区,在这社区中,人们基于共同目的或兴趣进行无限制的信息共享。社会网络平台在近几年越来越受欢迎,他们提供了更高效和友好的方式来维持社会关系,并且以不同的形式和媒介,如状态,手机短信提醒,博客,即时通讯信息共享和论坛来共享信息。如今,我们会听到周围的人无时无刻不在议论Facebook,微博,MySpace和LinkedIn,社交网络平台超越了世界上最流行的网站。 StumbleUpon,Digg,和YouTube公司为了获得市场营销中的吸引力,寻找并散布对他们的品牌和服务有用的内容消息,以保持追随者的忠诚度,同时,社区论坛被证明是与其他专业人士,以及潜在顾客和现有客户联系起来的有效方式。

如今世界上有数以百计的社交网络平台,在美国最流行的社交网站之一是Facebook,截至2010年7月,其已拥有超过5亿用户。Facebook成立于2004年2月,它声称用户每月在其网站上花费的时间大约是7000亿多分钟,并分享超过300多亿张照片以及链接到其他网站的视频和文章。另一个流行的社交网站是MySpace,成立于2003年8月,目前拥有1.3亿注册用户。MySpace的用户特征是年龄较小,Facebook与之相比更加内容丰富。同样的,成立于2006年7月的微博是一个微博客网站,每天都有数以百万计的网友发帖,具有约75万注册用户。与此类似的还有其他一些社交网站,他们也提供类似的服务,如Orkut,Friendster,Flickr,Digg和LinkedIn。然而,LinkedIn是专门为了发现与维持业务关系而设计的。这种类型的社交网站旨在发展业务联系,寻找就业机会。类似的其他社交网站有YouTube,他是一个视频分享网站,在这里每天都有数以百万计的用户对视频进行上传,下载和评论。

据Dutta和Fraser的报道显示,Facebook最近有许多处于职业生涯中期的人们进行了注册。有人认为,随着全球经济的低迷,人们转向Facebook,为了寻找业务联系和更安全的就业机会。这类情况也适用于其他社交网站。与Faceboo类似,其用户友好的特性使它们很好地服务于不同的营销策略。

3.什么是微博?

一般来说,微博被定义为可以发布规定量信息内容的平台,内容形式可以是文字,图片,链接,视频短片,或者是媒体在Web上的任何其他形式。自2000年初推出起,微博已经在朋友圈以及同事群体中非常流行,他们可以对别人的发布内容评论,并且可以更新自己的状态信息。与其他社交网站类似的是,微博也旨在创建在线社交区域。

微博提供了多种服务,包括了Twitter,Jaiku以及最近流行的Pownce所提供的所有服务。这些平台易于用户沟通,使用户能够分享他们的生活,活动,观点和状态信息。其中最流行的平台是Twitter。 ComScore公司称,8个月内微博便能达到Twitter的用户数量,Twitter截至2007年4月就拥有大约94000个用户。在Twitter上,人们允许在140个字符的限制中进行信息编辑。头条将会被广泛传播,包括新闻报道和日常活动。微博便于轻松地共享公开的信息状态。在微博的调查结果中,描述了“我们为什么发微博”不同的动机。他们的研究结果表明,微博已经成为了交流日常经验,意见和评论的工具。

市场工作者通过微博网站来进行业务活动,包括发布有关的产品,效果或服务。Twitter的使用推动了信息在商业中的使用。在Twitter网站发布的“关于我们”一文中,“Twitter可以用来与对贵公司有兴趣的客户进行快速信息共享并建立合作伙伴关系。”微博与之相比,更加满足了加快通信速度和提示方式的要求。通过限制用户发布字符数量,它缩短了用户的时间要求。它还引诱用户频繁更新,不像博客,无论多么活跃的博主也要隔几天才能发布帖子,更新自己的博客。在这些微网站产生的数据量是巨大的,使得企业通过潜在目标生成线索,了解最新趋势,微博改革了市场营销的技巧和策略。

4.数据分析与口口相传的营销特点

二十一世纪的市场营销完全取决于市场如何变化与创新。在本世纪,市场营销不仅依赖于大公司和他们的竞争对手的营销思路,现在还以客户需求为主要驱动因素。关于如何区分产品好坏的信息包括,它有什么缺点,以及如何进一步加强以取悦客户,以往这些需要数月或数年,如今只需几天或几周分析数据与市场调查。营销的本质在过去几年中随着网络技术的发展发生了极大的改变。他缩短了无论是身体上和情感之间的距离,也缩短了网络技术的发展时间。

如今,与 20年前相比,市场营销和企业似乎有了很大的不同。随着移动互联网上新的沟通渠道的出现,出现了新的市场推广方式。作为一个美国总统候选人,奥巴马在2008年的选举中,通过广泛使用的社交平台促成了他的成功,后来在选举竞选期间也运用了类似 “病毒式营销”的技巧。

MySpace,Facebook和Orkut等社交网站可以帮助我们发现人们的好恶和频繁的与人们在网上互动。这些主要渠道被运用于用户和朋友之间的互动。传统渠道无法及时进行互动与市场开发,这主要是由于缺乏数据:可用于实验研究的网络平台太少,幸运的是,移动互联网的兴起,极大地改变了这一点。基于社交网络平台巨大的数据量,现在可以从微博和社交平台,新闻组,聊天室等收集以上所有信息并过滤,然后形成了大型数据库,这将提供给我们一个前所未有的数据分析平台

移动互联网上另一个主要的营销特点是通过口口相传。人们称之为世界上最有效的,但最不被理解的营销策略。由于传统的通信方式越来越少的被运用,社交平台和微博营销展示了他们在这方面的最佳效益。企业通过将社交网络和微博成百上千万的用户相互连接来传播自己的言论信息。如今,企业的促销活动在社交网络平台上频频发布。这无疑为产品创造了声势,增强了人们营销工作的有效性。

5.结论

网络营销的文献和社交网络文学的文献综述表明,在网络营销领域出现了新的趋势,社交网络被视为市场力量的最新工具。在本世纪中存在着一个虚拟世界,社交网站如Facebook,微博,MySpace和YouTube的特性让他们很好地服务于不同的营销目的和策略。首先,他们通过口口相传的信息共享成为了营销的有效手段;其次,基于数以百万计的用户数据也为他们提高产品和服务奠定了基础。大多数社交网站通常可以免费注册,只需要几分钟的时间既可以注册并创建一个帐户。这使得企业降低了营销成本,尤其帮助了中小型企业或初创企业更有效地在全球市场的竞争。通过对社交平台产生的庞大的数据量进行深入分析,了解市场趋势和客户的需求,然后为他们提供他们真正想要,并正在寻找的产品和服务。这些网站的多功能媒体组件也提供了挖掘潜在客户的机会,无形中开拓了市场,鼓励客户前来咨询,然后轻松地促进了他们营销效果。
