An interesting question put on Linkedin group here by James Wright is
What kind of metrics are currently out there for social media marketing?
Some responses were –
- number of “friends” on Facebook, Myspace, and LinkedIn,
- number of blog subscribers,
- number of comments on blog posts,
- the number of links to blog posts,
- the number of brand related tweets
- where your leads are coming from
- a Google alert for phrases that are important to your business,
- referrals from embedded content/re-tweets that originated (use www.tr.im)
- ROI
- a follow-up email or sign-up page that asks “How did you hear about us?”
