This information gives you a brief overview of tool and resources than can be utilised on Social media, courtesy of Tiyo.
For some of you, these might seem basic, for others, they might seem a little not so straight forward, but no matter how experienced they are, they are worth a look!
AllTop is a fantastic resource. For those familiar with it, you'll agree that it truly is an online magazine rack for some of the best blogs going around.
The site is broken down by subject and gives you direct access to the topics / authors you are interested in.
PR Value: Not sure about which blogs are prominent in which sector? This is a great place to start.
Social Mention.....This is a really compact and easy-to-use monitoring tool.
It may not be the most robust one in existence, but it can give you a pretty decent look at brand / subject mentions across blogs, micro blogs, video sharing sites, social networks and much more.
PR Value: Provides a quick reference look at what's recently been said about your subject of interest.
Bing real-time Twitter search...This is a great way of seeing what's hot / trending at any particular time.
The good thing about this service is that it features real-time snippets of the most shared links in relation to the subject you are interested in. And, it all occurs in real-time.
PR Value: It allows you to get the source of popular discussions, allowing you to trace its development.
Klout..Although it's dangerous to get too caught up in the 'influencer' debate, this tool is probably as close as you'll get to getting an idea of who is driving which conversations.
Not every single social media user has signed up to Klout so you may miss a few people, but chances are you'll get a decent picture of the scene you're interested in.
PR Value: This will allow you to identify some of the key conversation drivers in the areas you are interested in.
BackTweets..This is a really neat and easy-to-use tool.
Simply enter a URL into the search bar and it will provide you with a list with every tweet that has ever contained a link / reference to that website.
PR Value: If you are running a campaign and want to see how much traffic has been driven to the 'target' of your activity, type it in here and you'll get an idea of how much that site address is being shared.
