Page 31: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

Facebook Social Plugins

• Comments: lets people comment on content on your site using their Facebook profile and shows this activity to their friends in news feed

Page 32: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

Twitter Widgets

• Embedded Timelines: You can embed a timeline for Tweets from an individual user, a user's favorites, Twitter lists, or any search query or hashtag.

Page 33: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

• Favorites: a favorites timeline may be created for any public Twitter user, and displays that user's favorited Tweets.

• Tweets from a specific list of users. The header of the list widget contains the list name, description, and links to the list creator's profile. Retweets by members of the list are included in the timeline.

• Search and #Hashtag: create a search timeline for any query or #hashtag. You may also choose to enable “safe mode”, which will exclude Tweets with common profanity and those marked possibly sensitive from appearing on your website.

Twitter Widgets

Where Should Sharing Buttons Go on Blogs?

• Top or Bottom?• Or middle if it’s a long post? • Research shows do both top and

bottom for best results!

Using Facebook Open Graph and

Twitter Cards

WTF is OG? Original Gangsta’?

• Facebook Open Graph tags are included in the HTML and allow the Facebook Crawler to generate previews when your content is shared on Facebook.

Page 38: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

Hey Big Design, What Gives?

• Sharing the Big Design Website yields nothing on Facebook…

Page 39: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

Nobody Really Likes Radio Web Design,

• But they used Facebook Open Graph to customize the image and description!

Page 40: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

Facebook Open Graph Tags• og:title – The title of your article, excluding any branding.

• og:site_name - The name of your website. Not the URL, but the name. (i.e. "IMDb" not "imdb.com".)

• og:url – This URL serves as the unique identifier for your post. It should match your canonical URL used for SEO, and it should not include any session variables, user identifying parameters, or counters. If you use this improperly, likes and shares will not be aggregated for this URL and will be spread across all of the variations of the URL.

• og:description – A detailed description of the piece of content, usually between 2 and 4 sentences. This tag is technically optional, but can improve the rate at which links are read and shared.

• og:image – This is an image associated with your media. We suggest that you use an image of at least 1200x630 pixels.

• fb:app_id – The unique ID that lets Facebook know the identity of your site. This is crucial for Facebook Insights to work properly. Please see our Insights documentation to learn more.

What are Twitter Cards?

• With Twitter Cards, you can attach rich photos, videos and media experience to Tweets that drive traffic to your website. Simply add a few lines of HTML to your webpage, and users who Tweet links to your content will have a "Card" added to the Tweet that’s visible to all of their followers.

Page 43: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

You’ve Seen YouTube Embeds into Twitter,

• Here’s one from my company, BMC Software.

• Twitter grabs the video and embeds into the Twitter Stream

Page 44: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

Also Works for Flickr, Vimeo and Others…

Page 45: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

And For Your Own Site!

• All you have to do is add the Twitter Card code.

Page 46: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

Twitter Card Tags

• twitter:site - @username for the website used in the card footer.

• twitter:site:id - Same as twitter:site, but the website's Twitter user ID instead. Note that user ids never change, while @usernames can be changed by the user.

• twitter:creator - @username for the content creator / author.

• twitter:creator:id - Same as twitter:creator, but the Twitter user's ID.

Twitter Card Tips• Specify the type of card for your content

(summary, photo, gallery, product, app, or player)

• Each card has built-in content attribution by website or content creator

• Twitter’s crawlers will respect robots.txt when scanning URLs

• When multiple URLs are tweeted, preference goes to pic.twitter.com and vine.com, then URLs processed in order of appearance.

• Twitter’s Card Processor looks for Twitter tags first. If not present, will fall back to Open Graph.

Engagement

Page 49: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

Users who tweet between

10 and 50 times per

day have more followers on average

than those that tweet more or

less frequently. The "peak”…is at about 22 tweets

per day.

- @DanZarrella, @Hubspot

Page 50: Creating More Engaging Content For Social

“As brands tweet more, the total

number of Retweets only continues to

increase.

Response Score continues to

increase as more Tweets are

made.”
