According to Wikipedia social media
are “media designed to be disseminated through
social interaction, created using highly accessible
and scalable publishing techniques. Social media supports
the human need for social interaction, using Internet
and web-based technologies to transform broadcast media
monologues (one to many) into social media dialogues
(many to many). It supports the democratization of knowledge
and information, transforming people from content consumers
into content producers. Businesses also refer to social
media as user-generated content (UGC) or consumer-generated
media (CGM).”
While there are some fairly dramatic market
share changes to the number of visitors to the more
popular social media sites such as Facebook, MySpace,
Twitter, You Tube and Linked In, one trend is perfectly
clear – the total number of visits to social network
sites is growing and there is business generated from
them.
At Fleming + Company Inc. we know the
trends and have the experience necessary to help your
business profit from those trends.
