Not Just About Creating More Pages




                                            It’s not just the content
                                            alone that is important.




                                                                                                                   4

It’s about the people…

         Let’s Review
                          Data does not speak for itself

                                   Not just content, people and interactions

                                        Metadata around social objects

                                        Recommendations (content & colleagues)

                                   Enhance search results

                          Sentiment

Editor's Notes

  1. Social Analytics - The Value Behind the HypeThe value of Social Analytics can be surfaced in many ways. Sometimes is quite visual like a leader board that helps motivate participation. Other times it's behind the scenes like the algorithms used to recommend groups to join or pages to read. Either way, social analytics can help you make better informed decisions, provide more relevancies to your interactions and ultimately help you get you and your company be more successful. This session will take a look at some of the real world implementations of social analytics available today from many of the social business vendors.
