- We don’t have the time today to go into each of these networks specifically, but I will cover a select few and some kick-ass ways you can use to identify key influencers both on your accounts and on the networks in general.
- Reddit power users are identified by their ability to earn what is called “Karma.” Which is awarded for submissions, comments, and interaction. The largest users are tracked but use a tool like RedditSpy to keep abreast of all the “subreddits” which is where the traffic is generated on Reddit. If you are want to start building up your own profile more on Reddit use the RedditEnhancementSuite.com extension for Firefox.
- This is where link bait type of content comes into play.
- These types of networks usually work on a quid pro quo basis and allow users to earn points and credits based on how much they share the content of other users . We have a detailed article we just published on 12/1 titled “ Take your Content Viral with Collaborative Social Sharing” If you aren’t using collaborative sharing platforms to expand the reach of your content and audience, you are missing out on a fantastic way to drive shares, traffic, and engagement!
