The Social Media Search Cycle Part 2: Organization and Reporting

This is the second part in a series of posts detailing how to maximize your listening efforts by following the social media search cycle. This post will cover how to categorize and report on your social media search results.

The first step in the social media search cycle is defining and refining search terms to suit your need. After adding your terms the data begin to flow. This can be the most difficult point of the social media search cycle.

The Social Media Search Cycle Part 1: Social Media Searches

This is the first part in a series of posts detailing how to maximize your listening efforts by following the social media search cycle. This post will cover how to identify and refine your social media searches.

Here at Looxii we provide you with the social media listening tools needed to monitor brands (personal or professional), products, competitors or prospective clients. Social media content and subjects are constantly shifting; anything social is usually dynamic, even chaotic. Effective monitoring means accounting for this dynamic, and sometime chaotic, environment.

There are many steps in the life of a social media search and fine-tuning your searches saves time and ensures you are getting the most out of the social web.

Fits and Starts

Upgrading a web app comes with challenges, some anticipated, others unforeseen. Since upgrading last week we’ve been working relentlessly to keep up with – and prevent – server errors and service outages.

As of the time of this post Appengine (the platform that hosts our platform) is down, in a big way. We do know that whenever you encounter an error, regardless of where the problem originates, that your data are tucked away and aggregating safely.

We apologize for the inconvenience and hope the problem is rectified soon. If you have any questions please contact us or email us directly at support[at]looxii[dot]com.

Startup Riot 2010 – Thanks!

We really can’t do Startup Riot 2010 justice in one blog post. From Looxii’s perspective it was a great opportunity to spread the word about our beta release, meet new people and get some quick feedback. That said, it was a truly humbling experience getting to share the stage with so many amazing startups. We owe countless thanks to Sanjay Parekh, Brandy Nagel, Jacqui Chew and the dozens of sponsors, volunteers and staff for making the event great for everyone involved.

We will now defer to those who were responsible enough to provide thoughtful, thorough analysis and coverage of the day’s events… Read More »

Looxii on Bold Ventures Radio

We appeared on Atlanta’s Bold Ventures Radio a couple of weeks ago to talk about Looxii and social media trends in business. It also gave us an opportunity to talk about our experience in Shotput Ventures and give some advice to prospective applicants. Be sure to have a listen. We’re on right after host Jean Creech’s interview with Don Rainey of Grotech Ventures.

If podcasts aren’t your thing you can check out video of our appearance. A BIG thanks to the folks of Bold VenturesTV for recording, editing and posting videos of us on YouTube!
