Social media is a fast-growing, ever-changing industry, and it can be a challenge for those in the know to keep up with the ever-evolving lingo and social media terms. Every industry has its own language, and here are some of the basic terms and definitions of social media: Social Media Terms Avatar – An image that represents a user online. Most brands use their company logo as their avatar. See NPR’s Twitter avatar or Dr Pepper’s Facebook avatar. Bitly – A free service to shorten URLs, making them easier to share on social media platforms. Here’s Whole Foods using a Bitly in their recent tweet. Blog – This is a “Web Log” that individuals or companies use to share commentary, such as updates, graphics, or videos. Zappos has an active company blog. Bookmarking – The process of saving a URL in order to access it at a later date. There are different bookmarking platforms, but Google also offers a spot to bookmark sites. Hashtag – A tag used to categorize and organize comments on Twitter. Always preceded by the pound symbol “#.” Starbucks asks users to tag Instagram photos with the hashtag #starbucks, and they use a lot of different hashtags in their Twitter feed. Here’s one they use often #ExtraShotOfGood. Infographic – A graphic with information and data shared easily through social media sites. Here’s an example of How to Create an Infographic from Mashable Klout – A social media analytics service that gives you a score based on how involved and influential you are in the social media world. Check out these Top social media influencers klout scores. Like – A way to show approval on Facebook. You actually click a “Like” button. You can “like” a brand, which allows you to receive their status updates in your news feed, or you can just like a specific status update. Here you can choose to “like” Disney World’s page or “like” this status. Links – A hyperlink, a way to connect directly to another web page, accessible by one easy click. This blog post is full of links to other sites, but here’s a link to the Splash Media YouTube channel, just for emphasis. Link building – A search engine optimization (SEO) tactic where you strategically link to other sites (usually blogs) to increase your own site’s search engine ranking. Meme – A thought, idea, joke, or concept that is shared online through social media sites. It’s typically an image with text, but can also be a video. The Grumpy Cat meme won Meme of the Year at the 17th Annual Webby Awards. Microblogging – Content sharing platforms that restrict the amount of data that you can share. Twitter is considered a microblogging platform, as is Tumblr. Permalink – The specific URL to a web page or blog post. The links within this blog post are all permalinks to specific pages. Podcast – An episodic series of audio radio, video, PDF, or ePub files subscribed to and downloaded through web syndication or streamed online to a computer or mobile device. I get most of the podcasts I listen to from iTunes. RSS Feed – “Really Simple Syndication” is a format used to easily share frequently updated content, such as news sites, blog posts and videos. Here’s a link to the Splash Media blog feed, where you can subscribe and receive our blog updates through email. Sentiment – The attitude of user comments related to a brand online. Amy’s Baking Company has recently received extremely negative sentiment from Facebook users for their alleged bad customer service. (read through the comments to see what I’m talking about) SEO – Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a website from search engines via unpaid or organic search traffic. Google defines SEO. Skype – A service that allows for text, audio, and video chats between users. If you haven’t “skyped” someone, you don’t know what you’re missing. Tag – Is a term assigned to a piece of information so that you can describe the information and find it again. (Commonly used in blogging) At the bottom of this blog post by The Pioneer Woman, you can see she has used the tags “dogs” and “random critters.” Traffic – Is the amount of data sent and received by visitors to a web page. Most websites monitor how many visitors they receive and how many pages are viewed. Google Analytics is a good tool to measure your web traffic. Tweeps – A nickname referring to Twitter Followers. Tweet – A message sent through Twitter that is no longer than 140-characters. Surprisingly, you can say a lot with very few words. Here’s an award-winning tweet from the Mars Curiosity Team.
This glossary of terms just touches a small portion of social media terms, but they are some of the most critical. Did we miss any? Are there any social media terms out there that you don’t understand?

Fast & Furious 6 star Vin Diesel has so many Facebook "likes," he says Mark Zuckerberg might owe him billions of dollars.
“When I had started my page, the only person that had a million fans was Barack Obama,” he told Entertainment Weekly this month.

Who doesn't heart Vin Diesel? A regular nice guy to speaks to his fans and followers on Facebook. That's WHY his following is one of the largest on Facebook.
I believe he could teach us all a lesson in "relationships first". Thumbs Up for Vin Diesel! A warm person who hasn't forgotten where he came from :)

Business results are why we keep talking about, and using, email. These days, email is way more powerful when it’s properly integrated with social media, not seen as an afterthought or a channel to be managed separately.
If you’re into things like growing your audience, cultivating stronger relationships with customers, and increasing sales and ROI, then you’re going to love this.
We’ve teamed up with digital marketing maestro and author Jason Falls for a brand new special report on the subject.
Susan Daniels's insight:
As synchronicity would have it, I just came across this free downloadable without registration publication from AWeber, a leader in email marketing.
"Email & Social: The Powerful Pair digs into three key integration points, with real cases and examples to help you make your email and social media work together better. And it’s 100% free. Not even a registration form, just download it and put it to work!"
I haven't read this yet, but you can bet I will! As I stated in an earlier post today, I went quite a while without using email marketing. I thought the future was in social media alone. I have come to the awareness that the combination of the two would be spectacular.
So then, along comes the email in MY inbox from AWeber with the offer for this free publication, "EMAIL & SOCIAL The Power Pair". Enjoy!

Susan Daniels wrote a note titled Brushing Up on Social Media Netiquette. Read the full text here.
Susan Daniels's insight:
Social media is here to stay. With so many sole proprietors, private and government businesses now integrating social media into their Web sites and customer service, attention to ‘Netiquette’ is fast becoming important for all internet users. The term ‘Netiquette’ is short for ‘network etiquette’ or ‘internet etiquette’. It is a set of commonly agreed upon social conventions that facilitate interaction over the World Wide Web.
This interaction ranges from social networks, blogs, mailing lists, and forums.
The use of ‘Netiquette’ predates the start of the World Wide Web going back to at least 1983, first referred to with the use of text-based e-mail from educational and research bodies who then dominated Internet traffic.
Listed below are a few common rules of ‘Netiquette’ when using social media.
Do not spam by flooding the Internet with many copies of the same message, in an attempt to force the message on people who would not otherwise choose to receive it. It’s a waste of your time. People dislike it and they will ignore you.
Do not take the privacy of your posts for granted. Never post anything that you wouldn’t want to appear on the evening news.
Avoid the use of all caps. Our human subconscious mind thinks it is being yelled at when reading all caps - in any language. If your content is concise and interesting, it will get all the attention it needs.
Having good manners is not a license to correct everyone else. Take a deep breath and think about it. If you still wish to tell someone of a mistake, send them a private e-mail. Arrogance and self-righteousness are examples of poor Netiquette.
Ensure you know the guidelines and rules of the site you are visiting. Follow them. Do not argue with admins or owners. You will always lose. It's their site - follow the rules.
Common sense is the rule of thumb with netiquette as with all good manners. However, depending on the site you land on today, the guidelines and rules can change slightly or a lot from one to the other.
Take the time to read each site's guidelines and rules carefully. Look through all the features on the site and discover how you can best use the features offered to benefit both you and the site.
Not doing so can end up with a lot of wasted time and energy going down the wrong direction and ending with no benefit at all.
Strive to be cheerful, courteous and kind.

An iterative zooming technique has been developed in the US to give keyboard functionality to smartwatches, wrist worn computers that give users access to apps such as email but so far lack text entry functionality.
Dubbed ZoomBoard, the text entry technique from researchers at Carnegie Mellon University is based on the QWERTY keyboard layout. Though the full keyboard is very small on a watch-size display, simply tapping the screen once or twice will enlarge an individual key until it can be pressed. Capital letters can be typed by momentarily holding a key. A swipe to the left deletes a character whilst a swipe to the right types a space. An upward swipe calls up a secondary keyboard of numbers and other symbols.
Susan Daniels's insight:
This is an excellent texting tool for those social media marketers on the go. Even though the watch is a small surface, tapping twice will enlarge the letters from the querty keyboard. For the seasoned "texting afficionado", this will be a no-brainer to learn the taps and swipes to be up to normal texting speed.
Have I told you the story about one of my grandsons who, before he could talk, was holding small flat toys and pretending to text using his thumbs? He saw his mother doing it from birth and naturally picked it up. It is a sign of our times! This is the same one that liked to wear the 3D glasses while sticking objects into my DVD player. He was curious. He wanted to see how it worked.

“Strategies” is a word we see everyday, and in our social media world, it is commonly used in reference to marketing. The question keeps coming to me about what this actually means! This is directly from Wikipedia: Etymology: The term “Strategy derives from the Greek “στρατηγία” (strategia), “office of general, command, generalship”, in turn from “στρατηγός” (strategos), “leader or commander of an army, general” a compound of “στρατός” (stratos), “army, host” + “ἀγός” (agos), “leader, chief”, in turn from “ἄγω” (ago), “to lead”. As you see, “Strategy” is a military term. Although it seems at first to be a stretch to think of Social Media Marketing Strategies as a military derivative – think about it - it takes two to Engage.
GOALS
STRATEGIES
TACTICS
ENGAGEMENT
Therefore, in terms of Social Media, Strategies becomes part of four levels:

Susan Daniels's insight:
I hesitate to scoop this but its the trending news on social media this evening. I must admit I am a little surprised to hear that there is a 'red-light district' on LinkedIn.
In my opinion LinkedIn has the been toughest social media venue to break into for an internet marketer. In the early days I received so many rude messages from so-called "professionals" on LinkedIn that while I maintained a profile - I did't spend much time on it. Everytime I did, it seemed like I was getting my hand slapped.
Now, I find out they have been allowing 'red-light district' and have only just discovered it? I'm confused LinkedIn. I'm a grandmother from Oregon. You were all over me and you allowed this?
According to this article, sinced this "discovery", LinkedIn is revoking membership to at least some of the 'red-light district' profiles.
Please know that I'm not judging these 'red-light' members. What they do is their business. That's how I play the social media game. I don't know what some one elses situation is or what they are going through.
It isn't my job to judge anybody on social media. Nor is it mine or anybody else's job to correct them based on 'whatever' morality based dogma.
I do have a question for Nevada though. If prostitution is legal in some counties in Nevada, why is it illegal to advertise? For logical thinkers, that's a bit of a stretch - isn't it?
On the brighter side of things...
The upgrades and new features on LinkedIn have made it more user-friendly over the past year and I now visit LinkedIn on a regular basis. I run a group there and get several contact requests per day. I enjoy the fact that many jobs sites allow me to use my LinkedIn profile to apply for a job. That's a huge convenience and I recommend it.

A California district court has ruled in favor of Facebook in the social network’s case against a number of “typosquatters,” according to a filing released on Wednesday.
A typosquatter is the name for companies or individuals who purchase domain names like “gacebook” or “dacebook” in the hope that users will accidentally visit the sites. In this particular case, the defendants were sitting on many different misspelled domains which, when visited, would redirect users to other, sometimes malicious, sites.
The ruling turned over more than 100 domains to Facebook and awarded the company damages of about $2.8 million.
“We are pleased with the court’s recommendation. We will continue to use all the tools at our disposal to enforce against those who attempt to take advantage of the people who use our service,” Craig Clark, Facebook’s associate general counsel, told AllThingsD in a statement.
Susan Daniels's insight:
I always wondered about "typo-squatters". Early on in my quest to build and design social media communities, I noticed that when someone came up with a great idea or name for their site, someone else would instantly start using something similar. It didn't sit well with me - almost felt like someone was stealing from someone else. So, I am very pleased that Facebook pursued this and won. It sets a precedence and will benefit all "above-board" web site owners. Kudos once again to Facebook for leading the way for us all.

Susan Daniels's insight:
I'm finding more and more things to like about LinkedIn. When I joined a few years ago, I found it too restrictive and ultra-professional. I dealt with "ultra-professional" at work all day and found Facebook more fun and enjoyable. However, there have been many changes to LinkedIn and as I see the newer features come about, I am enjoying my time there more and more. I'm actually finding Facebook a little too restrictive these days... It's kind of like the Oregon weather - if you don't like it, wait a few minutes, it will change. :) Congratulations to LinkedIn on their 200 million member mark! Cheers and here's to many more successful years as the leading "professional" network. Warmly, Susan Delete the scoop?
