Fan Mail Response: What it Takes to be a Social Media Strategist

Kristina — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 19:19:53 +0000

Last week we received an email from a 13 year-old, with an interest in working in the social media field. The following is the inspired, and flattering correspondence:

Hi,

My name is Terry. I’m 13, and I’m in seventh grade. I’m always thinking about what I want to do with my life, and while I’ve thought of nursing, engineering, ministry, and countless other professions, I’ve never settled on one idea for more than a few days. Except one. When I was in forth grade I saw an article on the Google, Twitter, and Facebook offices, (I think I was on stumbleupon.com and looking at design, which I was in to at the time,) I decided to do further research on them. This led me to looking at more than the offices, but program development, advertising, and things like that that went on in all three. Ever since, on and off I’ve considered jobs at places like Google or Facebook. The two, especially Google, continue to impress and interest me. But recently my friend and I were in class school on our schools MacBooks, we had finished the work early and were just looking at things on Google like the Google Gravity, Let It Snow, and the Google PacMan, when I begun thinking more and more about the work that goes into programs like Google Chrome and the tricks on Google. That night, I was on Pinterest, on the geek section, and found a link to your website. It was something about color, and for the last few weeks I have been thinking about a career at a company like NowSourcing or Google or Facebook. I know that I’m in seventh grade, but I really want to know what kind of work you do, what school you had to go to, what that requires. I’m really, really interested in a career like that in the future, and want to know what it requires. I really hope you respond, because I’m very interested in this type of work.

Thank you,

Terry

We wanted to publicly respond to Terry, in an attempt to possibly help others understand this field better.

The wonderful thing about social media, SEO, infographics, and so on, is that it allows you to use your imagination, communicate with a wide variety of people, and create identities for people and businesses online. At NowSourcing our degrees range from advertising, and interactive media, to business administration, and journalism. Being motivated and passionate are two key ingredients if you want to succeed in a field like this, as well as setting boundaries with clients, and maintaining good character throughout. Without these things, no amount of talent will give you any long-term satisfaction.

Now, what do we do? a great definition of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) would be: the art of moving to the top of a Google search – that’s what this is really all about. If Google likes you, you’re in. Doing this organically takes a lot of fine tuning, and you can find yourself sitting on the line of being real and sounding like an advertisement. Advertising, in it’s actuality, is not a bad thing – manipulative, and invasive advertising is where people stop paying attention or even become irate - and it’s understandable. As an outsider it can be difficult to see people in promotions, advertising, even public relations, as human – but even the advertiser gets advertised too, and probably hates the same things we all do.

Blogging is a great way of building credibility with Google, but what some tend to forget is that it has to be good and consistent. It is very important to put out interesting, quality content. Which means, in this field, you need to be a bit of a writer. You also need to be able to write on many different subjects, sometimes on a whim. We often use blogs for links, which is a way of getting page views, that’s not invasive. This is also where you would want to launch an infographic, like the Psychology of Color (which you saw on Pinterest), because when it goes viral that page and your website get a lot hits – organically moving you up in a search.

When it comes to the social media side, you are not only building social networks, maintaining them, and creating an identity, but this is where you are the public relations department. How do you deal with a bad review right there on your client’s Facebook page for everyone to see? If you take any public relations courses when you get to college, the case studies show that the ones who take full responsibility, and fix the problem makes it in the end. This is an area where that good character comes in. You need to be honest with your customers, and your clients, and you need to make them happy. Sometimes this can be hard because they don’t actually know what is going to make them happy down the road. You may find yourself in a bind when these situations arise: you’re the expert, but they’re the client. This is why boundaries are so important, and need to be set in place from the beginning.

Terry, your interest seems to be on the more technical side, app design may be something you would enjoy. However, all the previously discussed aspects will be your business at some point – some more than others. I urge you to continue looking into the whole big world that is social media, and keep up with it, because it is constantly changing. There are a lot of areas you could major in when you get to college that would compliment this field, so I would choose one that you may be able to do multiple things with. You may consider blogging, as well. Try sitting down and thinking of what you would really enjoy talking about (maybe new applications, Google, Facebook), create an outline, and then write something once a week or twice a month. This will sharpen your writing skills, help you to be in the know about what’s launching, and by using a site like WordPress to do this, you will become familiar with the tools and mechanics. You can also explore the SEO side through your blog by including keywords, links, and promoting it on social networks. I can say that if you came to me at 22, looking for a job in social media, and I see that you have experience in these areas, and a strong understanding about the latest and greatest technology, I would be very impressed.

There of course are so many other areas, and aspects, but I hope this helps you to get started. To those of you our there who have questions, or maybe also have input for awesome people, like Terry, feel free to comment.

Interview With Artsy Editor Creator Stephen Ou

Kristina — Tue, 05 Jul 2011 13:35:11 +0000

Bloggers around the world have all experienced the woes of WordPress editor: the tricky business of adding videos without going from HTML to Visual, image placement, unruly fonts and styles that have a mind of their own, the list goes on. Earlier this year, 16 year old Stephen Ou decided to make a better WordPress. Two months later the better, faster, stronger, and far more intuitive Artsy Editor was ready to launch. NowSourcing interviewed Ou last week in honor of the upcoming release.

1 – Tell us a little bit about yourself.
I am Stephen Ou, I am currently working on a premium WordPress editor called Artsy Editor. I also made several web apps before including iTunes Instant, TwtRoulette, OhBoard, and OneExtraLap.

2 – You’ve accomplished some pretty visible releases at the tender age of 16. Do you feel that people don’t take you as seriously at that age, or is age but a number?
I think the age is just a number. Sure, people like to talk about age (ex. in order for blogs to attract traffic, they rather have headlines like “X years-old created Y”) and put me into a different consideration (both positively and negatively). But for me, I am just doing what I enjoy doing, and I seldom mention my age unless it’s necessary.

3 – It seems that you have a repeating pattern of looking for pain points inwell-known software (e.g. iTunes Instanthttp://mashable.com/2010/09/13/itunes-instant/ and now ArtstyEditor). What other pain points are on your mind?
Well, there are a lot that I would be like to see solved. Just a few examples:
- Domain registration and hosting setup. Right now no matter where you buy your domain and hosting, it takes a pretty long time to set it up and make sure everything is working. I’d love a way where I buy the domain in one-click and the hosting is set up for me in few seconds.

- Better ways to communicate with customers. I’d love to have FaceTime made for business. I really want a tool where I can video-chat with customers live so I can solve their requests faster and more efficiently. I want online businesses to have the same customer interaction as brick-and-mortar stores.

4 – What made you think to create ArtsyEditor in the first place? Not thatI’m complaining, it’s a welcome edition to the otherwise clumsy WordPresseditor.
The reason I started building it was because people wanted it, and they were willing to pay for it. I went through a customer development process where I got in touch with 100+ people, and 38 of them liked my idea and were willing to pay. From those kinds of positive responses, I knew I was onto something. So why give up the chance?

5 – Any plans to approach WordPress directly to try to get this incorporated into the core? Woothemes was able to do something to that effect before withtheir menu code which is now part of the WordPress core.
Possibly. WordPress has been the most revolutionary platform I’ve ever been into. It had helped me and others create countless websites and blogs. So if there is ever a chance that I can contribute to the core, I’d love to. But of course, I have to focus on Artsy Editor and build up something awesome first so I can get their attention.

6 – I saw your beta launch email. How’s the reception to your product been so far?
It is going exceptionally well. I’ve reached profitability before launch with a pre-launch promotion I did. And after the official launch today, more folks were coming to our site and trying out our free demo. We also received few nice pieces of coverage on The Next Web and TechInch.

7 – What else should we know?
Just something I say in most interviews: If you are about to start building stuff, choose something that solves real problems.

For a 20% discount on all products from ArtsyEditor we are including a special code for our readers!

Social Media Informer: A New Resource For Social Media Professionals

admin — Tue, 16 Nov 2010 23:18:51 +0000

Whether you’re an informer or a learner, we now have a new conduit when it comes to disseminating information about social media and all its applications.

The driving idea behind Social Media Informer is to bring you “The best content about social media for business.” They do this by aggregating and syndicating all kinds of blog content relating to social media. Whether it’s RSS, SEO, or analytics, Social Media Informer has potential to take off as a new hub of information. And the good news is that it looks to do so in an unobtrusive way that directs all credit back to the original source. Clicking a link or following through on something found directly on their website, Social Media Informer takes you to the blog or other resource where it was found.

There are various ways to view content. You can select the time period, and browse topics like how-to articles, products, or specific subjects such as Twitter or iPhone. Bloggers producing applicable content can try to become part of the process by designing a widget and inserting it into the blog’s code (Here’s a video for help). It’s that easy to become an official Social Media Informer, which wouldn’t sound bad on a resume.

A Blog is More than a Leaf in a Lifestream

Brian Wallace — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 13:36:00 +0000

Last week, Steve Rubel of the Micro Persuasion blog announced that he was ditching his blog and moving over to a lifestream powered by Posterous. An inspired move or an act of lunacy? Opinion is divided on that one.

What I would like to know is – what’s the difference between a blog and a lifestream? I don’t really see much of a difference and here’s why.

For starters, both a blog and a lifestream pretty much serve the same function – to inform your readers of weblinks, post YouTube videos and give your opinions on any given subject. Whether those posts originate from WordPress or from another platform such as Posterous doesn’t make much difference. Whether you do it from a blogging platform such as Blogger or emailing from your Gmail account, you are still publishing posts. So a lifestream is still a blog in this respect.

Second, if you are publishing posts via a blogging platform, they can still be automatically sent to a lifestreaming site such as Friendfeed if you want to indulge in lifestreaming too. Yes you can do both! If you want that lifestream back on your blog, Friendfeed provides the widgets for it. But publishing a lifestream and then sending it to another lifestreaming site such as Friendfeed is rather counter-productive don’t you think? Lifestreaming the lifestream?

What bloggers should be doing these days is trying to stand out from the crowd by building their own site brand and promoting the hell out of it. Lifestreaming is rather anonymous in certain respects in that you are not “pushing” a brand name along with those posts. A lot of people who read blogs regularly heard of “Micro Persuasion” and they all linked to it pushing the MP entries to the top of the search results. How many people are going to remember the term “Steve Rubel Lifestream”? Not as many who knew Micro Persuasion because first of all it is not a very catchy title is it? Second, how fast will lifestreaming results get to the top of Google? I bet not as fast as a WordPress blog entry.

Which leads to a reason why Steve was so crazy to stop blogging – he is throwing away a well established blog with a well established name. All those years of work down the drain, all those carefully cultivated links now going to waste. He is starting completely from scratch and all for what? To stay on top of the latest trend to hit the internet? Wouldn’t it be better instead to work on a profitable well-linked blog that everyone knows and respects?

Steve and other lifestreamers claim “the blog is dead. Long live lifestreaming!” Where is the evidence for the demise of blogs? Last time I checked, the big blogs were alive and kicking. Other blogs are still doing fantastically well provided the owner(s) put the required amount of effort into them. Posterous has hardly been here for very long and already Steve wants to throw away a popular site and entrust his content to the new kid on the block, one who can’t prove that they will be around this time next year. I hope Posterous has an excellent backup and exporting option.

Lifestreaming is just the latest trend to hit the internet and in some respects it can get a little boring and tedious. Who wants to know every single thought that goes through a person’s mind? Long thoughtful helpful posts are much better any day of the week and they can generate the most linkbacks and comments. A 140 character Twitter entry on how you’re feeling that day or a hastily slapped together few lines won’t.

When lifestreaming stops being the latest trend and the music suddenly stops, where will that leave the lifestreamers like Steve? What if Posterous suddenly goes bankrupt and belly up? That’s right – back at the beginning again, looking to find the next trend train to jump onto. Is it just me or is that just downright tiring, constantly starting and restarting your web presence as one company goes bust and another wannabe pretender comes along to take their place? Meanwhile the blogs that didn’t jump on the lifestreaming bandwagon are breezing along nicely with nice healthy pagerank and good name recognition.

I think I’ll just stick with the blog, thanks very much.

Considering Premium WordPress Theme Design

admin — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 21:24:15 +0000

(An article contribution by Chris Reynolds: an entrepreneur, fellow designer and developer at Web Hosting Search)

Ever heard of WordPress.org? If you haven’t, I’ll be surprised. WordPress’ blogging software has been downloaded over 6,000,000 times since the launch of version 1.5 in 2005, the first version in which WordPress introduced the use of Themes. Fast-forward to 2009 and developing these themes has become the livelihood of many professional web designers. In other words, if you’re like most web designers and feeling the effects of the financial crisis, perhaps you should consider designing you very own WordPress Premium Theme.

Around 90,000 Google searches are made every month for the term “Wordpress themes.” This has been a trend for the last three years and the hype over WordPress doesn’t seem to be dwindling. However, something that has happened is the commercialization of the theme market. There are over 20 well-established designers working full-time to create and sell what are referred to as Premium Themes.

Designing and Selling Premium Themes

Though the commercial concept of premium themes opposes the WordPress open source freeware philosophy, it has opened up a vast new market for web designers. Some of you may already have created a WordPress theme without charging anyone for it. Ever since WordPress went mainstream, web designers have frequently contributed with free themes, mostly to promote their skills and expand their portfolios. Designing premium themes, however, isn’t a huge step in the other direction. You simply charge for your services, make the user interface more simple than the free themes available, and provide support/updates. People interested in purchasing premium themes aren’t usually interested in tinkering or learning to hack the layout. If I, as a blogger, purchase a premium theme, chances are I probably couldn’t design one myself.

Additional features that define premium themes are quality of design (aesthetics) and flexibility. Professional web designers can charge their customers for a theme license only because they are providing a professional and high quality product. There will always be free WordPress themes for you to choose from, but updates, tweak tips, and a community forum are all what you’ll receive when purchasing a premium theme from any of the web’s top providers. Here’s why you should consider developing your own theme:

The WordPress blogging platform is used by tens of millions of web denizens each day.

It is an inspirational haven for any web designer to work with.

The demand for unique and professional WordPress themes today is higher than it has ever been. Just take a look at what they are doing over at Woo Themes and you’ll understand.

WordPress has become a trusted free CMS, thus more frequently used in serious website-projects where web design is gladly paid for (even the NYTimes utilizes WordPress).

Creating a Premium Theme – CSS, templates and functions

Now that we have discussed some of the business advantages of designing WordPress themes, let’s take a look at a few technical pros. Creating a WordPress theme requires the standard CSS development and graphic design skills, but it also includes some PHP and XHTML/HTML programming. Not to worry, the WordPress CMS uses a framework of three theme files. First there’s the standard CSS-stylesheet, style.css, that controls the look of the website. Then there are functions files, functions.php and template files.

If user interface is your thing and you’re not interested in becoming a developer – that’s fine – just connect with a PHP / WordPress developer. You will be able to provide him designs that can be sliced up and made into WordPress themes.
Finding a web developer with working knowledge of WordPress programming won’t be hard anyway. You can even download an existing theme, install it and configure the stylesheet, functions files and template files directly from the WP-admin dashboard. One important step here is to make sure to change theme information in the stylesheet-file.

Below is an example of the first few lines of the stylesheet, including unique information for one particular theme. WordPress does not tolerate or allow direct copying when creating your own theme.

/*
Theme Name: Rose
Theme URI: the-theme’s-homepage
Description: a-brief-description
Author: your-name
Author URI: your-URI
Template: use-this-to-define-a-parent-theme–optional
Version: a-number–optional
.
General comments/License Statement if any.
.
*/

For this trial and error approach, however, you’ll need a place to experiment online. Check out WordPress hosting in order to set up a suitable hosting account.

For more technical information on creating your own WordPress theme please take a look at WordPress.org’s own Theme Development.

How to Keep up Your Blogging Momentum

Brian Wallace — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 01:26:49 +0000

[image credit]

A few days ago, you might have seen my claim that I would begin blogging daily.

I’ve been thinking that while this site is a great resource, many might miss it due to infrequent or unexpected updates.

Regardless of our past update frequency, blogging daily sounds like a tall order. Here are some steps I plan to employ in order to keep daily weekday blogging (and quality) up to par:

1 – More regular writers. Having guest posters is fun and gives people some fresh ideas, though having regular contributors takes on a whole other voice to your blog. Select these people wisely, as they should balance your normal tone.

2 – Nightblogging. I’ve just found it most effective to blog in the middle of the night.

3 – Assembly line method. One thing that has been particularly effective for me is what I’ll refer to here as assembly line blogging. Literally, if you look at your blog post as pieces on an assembly line, they become easier, especially when you’re looking to keep up a frequent pace.

So let’s say I come up with a great idea to blog, but don’t have the time. I quickly jot down the idea in notepad, or put in a draft in WordPress, usually with a catchy title. When time will allow, I will continue to develop the idea. Unless it’s a pure research post, the last steps I will do will be adding links, images and video. Give it a final edit, and the post is on its way.

4 – Delayed Publishing. Thanks to the beauty of WordPress, we’re able to schedule posts to publish in the future. While I might have some great ideas at 3am, it might not get the best exposure should I choose to publish at that time. So I could publish at 6am and have the blog do the publishing work by itself – just in time for my morning coffee. Does it really take that much time and work to publish a blog post? Of course not – it’s just nice to know that your post is on its way in a scheduled fashion.

5 - Keeping Fresh. Nothing keeps you on your game like blogging on a daily basis. Once you fall off your schedule, you may find yourself in a pattern of “paralysis through analysis.” I’ve fallen into this trap too before. You haven’t blogged for what you think is far too long, so you over think and over analyze the “perfect post.” You sit on it for days, maybe even weeks. Last I checked, nobody has won the Nobel Peace Prize for writing a blog post, so break your behavior here and publish already. It’s a self-defeating behavior that doesn’t help you, and your audience would appreciate the updates.

6 – There are some things Twitter wasn’t made for. Yes, you heard me. Twitter can’t make your coffee (though you can order coffee from it), and it can’t blog. Not beyond 140 characters. So this can lead to a lot of noise. Also, you don’t “own” your Twitter blog and links are nofollow, so the more you Tweet, the more you’re actually working for Twitter. Reclaim some of your blog power – your readers will thank you for the focus.

7 – Keep one step ahead of yourself. Try to keep at least one full post ahead of your writing. If you can’t do that, at least have a few half written ones, ya slacker

I’m not asking you to blog daily…though I’m curious: what do you do to keep up your pace?

Don’t Let Technorati Drop Your Blog

Brian Wallace — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 07:58:04 +0000

Technorati means business with WordPress Blogs, and rightfully so. With all the potential vulnerabilities of older, unpatched versions of WordPress out there, many blogs have become fair game to spammers worldwide.

If you have not upgraded WordPress since 2.3.2, and have a claimed blog on Technorati, you probably received an email from Technorati architect Ian Kallen, who writes:

“…Blogs that have been compromised by this security vulnerability are typified by having links to spam destinations inserted onto the blog page. These link insertions may be invisible to casual observations; the links are often obscured by style attributes that render them invisible. These links are still seen by crawlers such as Technorati’s, Google’s and Yahoo’s. You can find these links by viewing the source of the blog pages or, when using Firefox, looking under “Tools” -> “Page Info” -> “Links”. Blogs hosted on wordpress.com are not affected by this issue; only blogs hosted on their own installations of WordPress from wordpress.org require concern…”

The NowSourcing blog was a couple versions back and noticed a couple spam links creeping up here, so we bit the bullet and upgraded to WordPress 2.5. For those of you that have not done so yet, be sure to at least be on 2.3.3.

The WordPress Automatic Upgrade plugin was surprisingly bump-free (be sure to check all the backup files, we noticed that the wp-content folder didn’t backup automatically).

Technorati has often been criticized of not being on top of things, but this time around I must say good job, Ian and crew! Granted that many will be running around like chickens with their heads cut off

Before you say “hey, you write about social media. Where’s the social media?” I was just getting to that Technorati authority and blog search coupled with WordPress blogging is at the heart of social media. If you woke up tomorrow and your or your client’s blog was dropped by Technorati, there could be some serious ramifications. Conversation is quickly becoming the new form of metrics in social media (sorry pageviews), and without a guide like Technorati, we’d be up a creek without a paddle.

But what if Technorati removed thousands of authority blogs en masse? Best upgrade soon, all!

Think Twitter Sucks? You’re Wrong, Here’s Why.

admin — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 05:56:28 +0000

This post isn’t going to be inflammatory, walking you through the ABC’s of why Twitter is good and why you should use it (although you should).

Rather, the post is here to make you think about Twitter in a way that you might not have before – to use as a scouting and hiring tool. What better a way to find the latest new influencers in social media?

And now without further ado…I give you – Patricia Mayo.

I’ve probably just become the envy and bane of every desk-chained slave of the corporate world… (please don’t hate me!)

Hi! I’m Patricia Mayo, and I get paid to do the stuff most get fired for doing. Officially, my title is “Social Media Strategist.” But really I just stick my head in the clouds, pull out great ideas, and play with those sites you probably need a proxy to visit at work.

My apologies in advance if I end up getting you fired… *sheepish grin*

How did I get such a great gig? Well – chances are you have already seen my work.

Blazing a Trail in New Media

I have ghostwritten countless search engine optimized articles, copy for websites, ebooks, and ever so infamous five page sales letters. As “Miche” I problogged at Audeamus for Creative Weblogging, which snagged a front page on The Issue and was named a top Social Entrepreneurship blog a few times.

I have also edited Master New Media’s articles, videos, and newsradar. ProBlogger recently featured my guest post “Tired of (Promoting) Your Blog? Flip It” as one of 13 submissions picked out of over 100 submitted in response to his open opportunity for guesting.

Nowadays I’m just a few inches away from launching ComHacker, a blog to help you get what you want out of what you do online, and co-host the WordPress Weekly podcast. Of course, that isn’t the end-all be-all to my story. For more, you can read Dan Pennington’s interview of me on Associated Content.

Yep, I’m pretty much everywhere all at once. The sad part is, that’s not even a quarter of the stuff with my name on it But honestly, I owe the majority of my recent success to Twitter.

I <3 Twitter

Follow me on Twitter

Why do I love Twitter? Let me count the ways…

Thanks to Darren Rowse of ProBlogger tweeting about the open guesting opportunity as it was posted, my submission was the ninth one completed, and one of the first to get picked. The early bird gets the worm!

Brad Williams – Mr. SnapFoo (yes he’s so awesome he deserves a Mr. before the site name) – tweeted about the WordPress Weekly podcast. I tuned in, and ended up being grilled in the after show. Apparently they liked what I had to say.

Of course, I’ve gotta send some love to all the tweeple who saw my tweeted works in progress and sent paying freelance work my way. That’s just plain awesome And I’ve been able to fulfill those orders because I found a few great developers through my gig post at the Startupers site, prompted by Startupers following me on Twitter.

And interestingly enough, apparently going from 3 followers to over 200 followers in less than a month is notable – because that’s pretty much how I qualified for this gig at NowSourcing.

Best of luck in all your endeavors – and I’m certainly looking forward to helping you be a raving success too!
