SMO Visibility Boost Q&A
Q: Why optimize Social Media?
SMO(Social Media Optimization) helps you dominate search results for your business name, keeps any bad reviews of your services out of sight, and increases "third party validation."
Your search engine rankings can improve when articles are submitted article directories with SEO in mind, the links from these directories help in search engine rankings.
Q: When does the 10 weeks start?
When Flashecom receives your signed agreement there is a questionnaire you will need to complete and other information that will need to be provided in order for Flashecom to begin work. Your 10 weeks begins, and results can only be achieved, after you provide the required information.
Q: How will I know what you are doing for my site?
Flashecom will send you updates about the activities we are performing on your website.
Q: What kind of reporting will I be receiving in the 10 weeks?
You will be receiving reports for the activities mentioned in the package. We send out many reports during your 10 week package. However there are no fixed timelines, due to the fact we need your help to do many of these services. The timeline will flex based on how quick you give our team the feedback they need. We will give you guidelines and await your info in regards to your business model.
Q: Will I have access to the blogs you set up?
Yes. Flashecom will provide access to you for all blogs that we are working so that you can also post and make changes later.
Q: Will I be able to post to the blogs
Yes. You can post articles to the blogs as well, and Flashecom encourages you to post as much as possible. This will help keep your blog fresh and interesting to the spiders, and the people that look to read about you, your products, and services.
Q: At the end of the program will I still have access to the blogs, are they mine or yours?
Yes. You will continue to have access to the blogs after the end of the contract.
Q: When you open accounts at Social Media Websites like Facebook, and Myspace etc…will I have access to them, and at the end are they my accounts or yours?
Yes, you shall have access to them. They are your accounts; we set them up and encourage you and your staff to be active in the sites.
Q: How are the press releases written? What do I need to do?
Press releases written by Flashecom are based upon your company’s answers to a questionnaire submitted at the beginning of your program about your company, and your products and services. Based on these answers we will create a Press Release for your website. Submission of your press release is done only upon your approval.
Q: How about the articles? How are they created?
We will be creating articles based on the theme of the site. These articles will have "catchy" titles so that users click on them. But the info in the body of the article will be created from the bullet points you send us.
Q: What are the videos created?
The videos will be created based in a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation. To create a presentation, we will require eight to ten unique selling points about your business or website. If you have already created some videos or presentations, you can send them to us and Flashecom will do the submission.
Q: How can I measure the results of this program? What should I be looking for?
You can measure the success by looking at how many people have voted your article in communities like Digg, Sphinn, Mixx etc. For videos, you can check their views. You can also check referrer sites in your analytics program, such as Google Analytics. Referrers could be those social networking or media sites that allow back links. An accompanying increase in the direct traffic to your site is also likely to be the result of our SMO Visibility Boost activities.
We can create profiles, do submission, and get some votes for the articles, but this is a team effort. You need to ask your network of people (customers, friends, anyone willing to check the listing on social networking sites) to vote for you also, so that you can appear at the top of these social networking sites and can receive more traffic.
Q: What is the difference between the three programs?
The main difference is the number of man hours Flashecom will spend working your site as well as the number of activities performed on your behalf. The price of each of the three programs is based on the number of man hours required to maintain and update that program. Let Flashecom do the heavy lifting and create an extensive SMO program that you and your staff can easily maintain at the end of the 10 weeks.
