Social

Since our first BAFTA nominated social network for Channel 4, we’ve been helping our clients understand and utilise social media in all its forms.

We make social websites

Social media sharing tools are a must have for most sites these days. The easier you make it for your users to share your stories, videos and articles of interest, the more chance they will and you'll benefit from increased site traffic, greater awareness and better ranking in the search engines.

Blogs like Wordpress, microblogs like Twitter, commenting tools like Disqus and many other sharing tools and feeds can easily be added to your website or applications. Take a look at some of our social sites here.

We plan your social strategy

Social media is having a huge impact on brands and business as people use these channels to share opinions and experiences.  Although there is still a lot of debate as to whether you should build community functionality such as profiles, galleries, blogs and forums into your own site or use Facebook or other social networking platforms.

Of course, there's a lot to be said for fishing where the fish are and there's a lot to be said for having your community interact on your own website. (By the way, for the majority, the answer is still both.)

We're here to discuss your social business strategy and work out the right social plan for you.

We integrate third party community tools

Social media often means different things to different people. We speak to many people with distinctive needs and often a unique combination of social tools are required. So, we use tried and tested routes to adding the features you need, mostly based upon third party community software packages such as:

Ning - the world's largest platform for creating powerful, custom built, social websites.

Kickapps - a powerful platform for tailoring virtually any social media experience.

This means we can build completely customised social solutions that provide the right experience for your audience and the right outcomes for your business.

We run social media campaigns

You can't dip your toe in the social media waters and so it's essential to have a strategy in place. What channels should you use? What should we talk about? Who should do the talking? How will we measure the results?

We'll help you work out what tools to use and show you how to both encourage a dialogue with your customers, members, visitors or fans and also how to respond to social commentary around the web.

Did you know our CMS tools feature links to social platforms so you can share all your content as soon as it's published.

Why not talk to us?

Do you got an idea for a social network, or are you interested in adding a social dimension to your marketing or website. If so, get in touch, we'd love to talk through your idea over a coffee.
