Social Signal audits can be performed to identify key channels, missed opportunities, competitive positioning, and engagement gaps.

Editor's Notes
- #5: As Social, Mobile and Search grow over the next couple years, it’s important that we think about the content, the signals, the information and the behavior that will be impacting each other. Each of these is intertwined and can’t be viewed as a stand alone channel or else your marketing will be severly fragmented.
- #6: At it’s core, search and social have grown up very much alike. Both with algorithms of some sort that evolve over time – helping the engines to better connect the right people with the right content at the right time. What we’ve seen in recent years is that specific algorithms of Google Search – play favorites and prioritize brand content and behaviors that are occurring originally in traditional social platforms.
- #9: Here’s a view from the Marketer’s perspective. Things that we think about are not just specific to independent platforms (like Search or Social) – but rather the interplay of them. For example: Everything from WHERE are you present in social to HOW MUCH are you spending in PAID MEDIA to HOW is social integrated into ecommerce – all of these things are impacting the integration of how and when social and search are playing together.

- #25: Where can I find your brand? How easy is it to filter results and look for information? Are you optimized and integrated for social? What platforms are you active on?
- #26: How are you excelling participation and performance in the digital space? How is the network reacting? What type of content & experiences drive customers to engage?
- #27: What are you doing to ensure continued word of mouth? What does success look like? How are you tracking KPIs? What is your strategy for re-contact and amplification?
