Social Media Optimization
Social Media Optimization
Social Media Optimization (SMO) is a growing promotional tool to attract unique visitors to websites. Social Media Optimization is considered an integral part of Search Engine Marketing.
There are two categories of SMOs as follows:
(a) Social media features added to the content itself: RSS feeds, social news and sharing buttons, user rating and polling tools, and incorporating third-party community functionalities like images and videos.
(b) Promotional activities in social media: Blogging, participating in blog/discussion groups, posting status updates, and sending promotional messages.
