Challenges…
• Potential for
misinformation or bias
• Privacy
• Security
• A lot of noise
• Blocked by many
agencies and
hospitals
• Paucity of peer-
reviewed testing for
communication
interventions
• Lag between
research cycle and
changes in social
media
…overall

• Getting the attention of your
target group amongst all the
online “chatter.”
• Understanding what drives
user traffic.
• Limited online access and
poor literacy skills.
• Optimizing the SEO so that
your message appears
where you want it, when you
want it.
…with messages
Users tend to focus on the first 10 hits from Google, Bing, and Yahoo.
Schein, Rebecca et al. (2011)
• Government agencies are risk-averse and slow to adapt
to change.
• By the time the campaign is approved, users have
moved on to the next platform.
• Convoluted communication channels and who can say
what, and when.
• Consumers now expect answers in hours or days, not
weeks or months.
…for government agencies

Why Adopt Social Media?
“We need to take public health interventions to where the people are, or establish a presence in new media before people get there.” ~Erik Auguston, NCI (2010)~
Social life of information
• Two forces are driving online health
conversations:
• the availability of social media
tools and
• the increased desire and activity,
especially among people living
with chronic conditions, to
connect with each other (Fox).
Fox, S. (2011). The Social Life of Health Information, 2011

• The effective use of communication tools to “inform and
influence health behaviors” is a cross-cutting ASPH
competency.
Engagement and communication
Parvanta et al. (2011)
Health Informatics
Health Marketing
Health Communication
• Traditional marketers are using social media, so we
need to play in this space.
• It is more important than ever to engage customers
wherever they are.
• Encourages public engagement and builds relationships
between agencies and the public.
• Expectations in terms of openness, transparency, and
responsiveness.
Adoption
