10/10 This Robot Yelps Better Than You

10/10 This Robot Yelps Better Than You | Simply Social Media | Scoop.it

With the rise of Internet sales and the eventual explosion of online reviews, a strong correlation has been formed between online restaurant ratings and business revenue.  For many restaurateurs, favorable reviews translate to better revenue and a stronger bottom line. However, the seedy side of the Web has also led to fake reviews of everything from bullion to bison. Now comes word that researchers at the University of Chicago have successfully taught a neural network to write realistic fake restaurant reviews. 

 

The idea was to see if a machine could learn to create malicious negative (or glowing) reviews to either kill or inflate online ratings. The results were startling. Humans were unable to differentiate between the machine generated and human-generated reviews.  With these new-age "ghost writers" now pushing commerce, one has to wonder if good taste is a thing of the past. Literally. Cartoon by Ed Hall.

14 Essential Tips for an Engaging Facebook Business Page

14 Essential Tips for an Engaging Facebook Business Page | Simply Social Media | Scoop.it

Whether you're setting up a brand new Facebook Page for your brand, or you just want to make the most of your existing one, it’s probably a smart move -- Facebook is home to nearly 2 billion monthly active users.


It should be easy enough, right? Just slap together a photo, a couple of posts, and expect the leads and customers to roll on in, right?


Wrong.


If you're not creating a Facebook Page with a comprehensive strategy to get noticed, Liked, and engaged with, the chances of actually generating leads and customers from it are pretty slim.


For example, you can’t just choose any picture -- you have to choose one that’s the right dimensions, high-resolution, and properly represents your brand. But it doesn’t end there -- so we compiled the tips below to make sure you're creating an engaging page that takes full advantage of everything Facebook marketing has to offer..

Character Count Guide for Blog Posts, Videos, Tweets & More | HubSpot | Simply Social Media | Scoop.it

When it comes to writing text for your blog and social media posts, many marketers wonder, "But what's the character limit?" It's never a simple question -- sometimes, it's answered by parameters established by certain channels. And on other occasions, it's more a question of what's ideal.


For example, you probably know the character limit for a tweet is 140, but did you know that the ideal length is actually less than that? (Hold tight -- we'll explain why.) While we've written before about optimizing your actual content, we thought it would be helpful to gather the numbers of character limits -- both enforced and ideal -- for different online channels, all in one place. 


Below, you'll find a more detailed guide to character limits and ideal character counts for posts on your blog, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, SnapChat, and YouTube....

A lot of words have been added to the dictionary over the past few decades thanks to social media, but few have become so widely used and accepted as "hashtag."

Now, I could swear that the only time I hear it referred to as a pound symbol is when I enter my PIN number to pay my cell phone bill. While hashtags were originally made famous by Twitter, they're now used on many major social networks, including Facebook and Instagram.

"And you can hear some similarities with what I played, but it’s not doing the job of trying to replicate what I played.

White House press briefing goes off-camera, no audio broadcast allowed

White House press briefing goes off-camera, no audio broadcast allowed | Simply Social Media | Scoop.it

The White House press briefing has seen better days. Lately, in fact, the briefing is often not seen at all.

 

For four days last week, representatives for President Trump skipped the usual on-camera briefing to take questions off-camera. This wasn't the first time the White House had taken this step, but this month has brought an added twist.

 

In response to networks like CNN that decided to broadcast audio of the briefing, even without a visual to accompany, the White House barred attendees from doing that, too. Monday's briefing -- the White House termed it a "gaggle," a more informal set-up, though it took place in a format much like a briefing -- was likewise off-camera, with audio broadcasting forbidden.

Even when they have done on-camera briefings, White House press secretary Sean Spicer and his occasional fill-in, deputy press secretary Sarah Huckabee-Sanders, have done their part to further marginalize the briefing, routinely responding to reporters' questions by professing ignorance.

YouTube SEO: How to Optimize Videos for YouTube Search

YouTube SEO: How to Optimize Videos for YouTube Search | Simply Social Media | Scoop.it

When I was just a wee lass and HubSpot was first starting to make a name for itself, inbound marketing was a brand new idea. Marketers were learning that they couldn't just publish a high volume of content -- it also had to be high-quality and optimized in ways that made it as discoverable as possible through search engines.


And once upon a time, that content was largely limited to the written word. Eleven years later, that's no longer the case -- a comprehensive content strategy includes written work like blogs and ebooks, as well as media like podcasts, visual assets, and videos.


That last part -- video -- continues to be on the rise. According to the 2017 State of Inbound, marketers named video as a huge disruptor. "I mostly write content right now," one respondent said, "but I'm afraid it may begin to diminish more and more with video." And with the rise of other content formats comes the need to optimize them for search. One increasingly important place to do that is on YouTube, which is a video distribution website used by the masses (HubSpot included).


But how does that work? What are the steps you need to take to optimize your YouTube channel for search? We've outlined some major tips below. And if you're short on time, no problem -- check out the video summary here....

By using search operators, you can slash the time you spend on Google and get better results. And the best part: It’s not difficult at all. Even if you’re not doing a lot of SEO, you owe it to yourself to learn these so you can use them in your day-to-day work....

Twitter defines Website Cards as “a new way for advertisers to easily surface website content within a Tweet and drive relevant traffic to any page of their site, such as their home page, product page, or an important blog post.”


The Website Cards allow users to preview an image, see related context and experience a clear call to action in their timelines before tapping — something that may also increase the quality of click-throughs your brand is getting.In testing, brands saw significant decreases in cost-per-click (CPC) compared to campaigns that used an image and URL to drive website traffic, as well as higher engagement rates and click-through rates.
