Social Media Platforms

We're in the process of reviewing social networking vendors. Has anyone heard of Higherlogic or theportnetwork? What do you think? Also, when you launched your social networking site--were there any surprises (benefits or problems)? Did it integrate smoothly with your current website? Is there anything that we should specifically watch out for or address early on? Thanks!

    我会看看www.ning.com, and I would stay away from putting much time in Facebook. It's too easy to have your account disabled and lose control of your group there.

    I am not familiar with either of the social media vendors you mentioned. However, I have a little experience with launching a blog. I did so with my last company shortly before I left. We had very specific plans in terms of a very regular posting calendar (minimum once a week), plans to obtain commitments from industry guest bloggers to participate, and plans to constantly promote the blog to clients and prospects in all communications.
    They have fallen short of the original mandate unfortunately, due to resource issues. They are not doing blog posts at all, simply posting content that they are publishing in other vehicles as part of their overall content marketing strategy. They are posting very infrequently. They have only had one guest blogger since November. Consequently, I do not see that the blog is working in terms of engagement. I see virtually no comments on the site, and very few article ratings.
    我advice-whatever你的计划是一个社交网络working site-make sure you have someone in place to manage it as a key responsibility. Have detailed plans in terms of the implementation, posting schedule and a marketing plan for ongoing promotion. Ensure you have the resources to implement the plan. It takes a lot of hard work and consistency to achieve results.
