Social networking is the use of dedicated websites and applications to interact with others or to find people with similar interests to yours. It’s also a platform to use as a marketing tool whether you’re marketing a product or service you can reach a lot of people through social media.
Geofeedia:
Geofeedia in a tool that allows the user to locate social media postings in real time. The user can search an address and draw a digital perimeter map so for instance you could draw a map within a couple of miles around your business or place of work and you can see if posts on Social networking about your address or establishment are being posted on twitter, Instagram , Facebook or Pinterest.
MarketMeSuite:
MarketMeSuite is a social media engagement platform that allows a business to use key word searches within 5-1000 miles of their location to populate results in that area around them so for example someone could be posting “I need to find a new karate class” and if the dojo is using MarketMeSuite they can do the key word search of “Karate” or “Karate Class” and find that post then target that user with advertising or follow them.
WeLink:
