Excellent way to create KPIs for social media. Once you have KPIs you can connect, with a little "magic math", to ROI. Be GENEROUS in your attributions despite what your CFO says :).

Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

Topsy Secret Weapon
Topsy is one of my favorite social media weapons. With Google Analytics giving your social media the double whammy between 50% or more of Not Provided data and how poor Google is with reporting social media due to friends of friends sharing you must have a better analytics options for social.

Topsy does more than drink from the Twitter firehouse. Topsy is the best place to know the total reach of your Tweets, blog posts and comments. Topsy alerts can watch your brand and help with Online Reputation Management (ORM).

Best part of all is you can get a lot of return from Topsy before you spend a dime.

Why Google Blocks All Keyword Referral Data and Why This Is Really Bad

Why Google Blocks All Keyword Referral Data and Why This Is Really Bad | BI Revolution | Scoop.it
Rand Fishkin talks about Google's motivation behind their encryption.

Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

What a pain. Google is making it SO hard to know what is happening on our websites they are all but putting money in other metrics packages pockets. We used to be able to model when "not provided" was below 50%, but now that more people signin to G+ and stay signed in we's lost too much raw data. The super quants can still model, but the average analyst is now behind the eight ball.

Pavlos Nomikos's curator insight, October 6, 2013 12:44 PM

"Morale of the story: Whether or not you think SEO is good or bad and whether you think it is going to die or not, one thing stands certain for the near future: SEO specialists will have a much harder time proving that what they do actually works. Period."

David Bennett's curator insight, October 11, 2013 6:34 AM

Quote from Danny Sullivan of Search Engine Land: "

Publishers allow search engines to index their content, which is used by the search engines as the core content they can put lucrative ads around.


In return, search engines have provided traffic to publishers and data on how those publishers are found. That latter part of the ‘deal’ was unilaterally pulled by Google.”""
