Social Media & Search

Search Engine Room 2009

Last week I was lucky enough to be presenting at Search Engine Room 2009. I was giving the opening thoughts on social media, what the latest stats were, what happened to web 2.0, and my thoughts on search – some of which have already been published after my SMCSYD presentation on social media measurement, and a blog post on the love affair of SEO & social media.

My biggest take away from the day was actually around some new social media and search engine stats Experian Hitwise delivered. A couple of which were:

  • Australia: 11.8% of time spent on social networks, 12.8% on search engines. Both dominating largest time spent online.
  • 1% difference between search and social visits, up from 6.4% 3 years ago.

Anyway, hope this presentation gives you guys a good frame work to start implementing social media and highlighting the technical and community considerations for SEO & Social Media.
