As I write this we are over halfway through 2019 and the dawn of a new year and decade is all but shining. When I think back over the last 10 years, 2010 doesn’t seem all that long ago but my, how things have changed...
Facebook Jail. If you’re a frequent Facebook user, you’ve heard of this figurative prison in which users who violate Facebook standards are held by being temporarily banned from posting, liking, commenting or sharing until Facebook feels like the user has learned their lesson. ...
In our recent blog, Facebook Ads and the New Algorithm, we briefly discussed advertising in Facebook Watch. But what exactly is Facebook Watch? How is it different from Facebook Live! or simply posting a pre-recorded video to your wall? Can anyone post videos to Watch? Should you be moving your videos to Watch?
Just before the southeastern US ground to a halt due to an onslaught of snow and ice (we’re currently on our fourth snow day in North Mississippi), Mark Zuckerberg announced big changes to Facebook’s algorithm.
You can read his full announcement here:
Facebook Live! videos have come a long way in the two years since the service launched platform wide.

Alice, in her boredom, follows a rabbit down its hole and from there her adventure is one nonsensical event after another.

Earlier this year, a department within a local university asked us to evaluate their online marketing including their social media.

We also found ways to make their updates more effective, like posting more consistently at specific times of the day.
In 2012, Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, stepped out in a pair of Marks and Spencers caramel court shoes. Following her appearance, M&S sold one pair of the shoes every two minutes for at least seven days. That’s over 5,000 pairs of shoes.
The Duchess isn’t the only one whose fashion choices matter to brands. Whether it’s a Super Bowl commercial or a SnapChat take-over, major brands turn to celebrities to promote their products and services. Celebrities aren’t just royalty or the Hollywood elite, sometimes they reign over online kingdoms with successful blogs, YouTube channels or social media profiles.
