		<description>Hi 

Excellent post. 

With so much Sharing of data / posts going on, search results seem to be integrated already as part with apps tuned with different SNS today.

Also, users stay online today without a need to search, but just to feel connected.

The big catch being SNS like Facebook seem to give the user the benefit of staying connected, feeling social while being out there with the world (with free lively content /products/surveys/knowing what others are upto etc)

Twitter seems to take a smaller share of actual chunk tweeting than just following, but it too is for the real user with no images, but who wants to communicate, reach out and get immediate responses. 

All in real time. So users are not there looking around anymore, but being a part of something that&#039;s just more alive.

These apps have contributed immensely towards making the consumer heard easily, express immediately and that saves the most important aspect for both the parties, “time”

Adding a personal touch seems to be whats making users &#039;click&#039; online (no pun intended :P)

Keep posting

Be Well

		<description>SEO, thanks for the comment, much appreciated! I&#039;ve always been a huge fan of search marketing (paid and organic seo) and love the methodologies that go into making it work for clients. Agree in the long term we&#039;ll see SEO and SMO become equally important/funded. We have put together a white paper and framework around measuring ROI for social media programs (based on reach, preference and action/engagement) which may be of interest:

		<description>Great post. There is no doubt that social media is growing at a rapid rate. At this stage SME&#039;s are not using social media to it&#039;s fullest potential. Many of our SME clients are reluctant to invest in SMO at this stage as the ROI is hard to gauge. The larger corporates are now very keen to enage in the social media space. At this stage I would advise to invest more strongly in search as the ROI is much easier to gauge. However, in years to come I think that moving forward that both SEO &amp; SMO strategies will form an equal importance in an online marketing campaign.</description>
