Statistics of my blog

Statistics of my Blog.
  1. Blog
Statistic of my blog can be seen as low. I think i was not very active while i was blogging. I know it is very sad but I have learned that I have to be very active and make some fresh posts to get attention from the people. Very low numbers showed during the October and November. It is very challenging to getting people attention and to make view my blog.
  1. Twitter
First of all, i not big fan of twitter and I don’t like how people keep making post all the time. Since I am not big fan of twitter i was not very involved in twitting which makes the statistic very low. Also i don’t re-twitted to people I follow which made my twitter stats every worse.
I think people or groups that i followed was more of company that makes products and advertisement. So maybe that made them to twitted a lot. I think it is very hard to keep up with twitter and it seems very time consuming
  1. Linkedin
During this class, I learned what the Linkedin was and to me, it seems very useful. Since i am student, i don’t have many connections but i was happy to know the people who i met in the past had linkedin. I added few people that i know from the church, people who work at the insurance company. Obviously, my stats only can be very low because I am not full time worker yet but I thought what I do in the future and my passion about my job will make my linkedin very active. 

ROI & What Should We Do

ROI & What Should we do to make it better?
ROI which stands for return on investment. It means a performance measure used to evaluate the efficiency of an investment or to compare the efficiency of a number of different investments. I think this is very efficient information to the people who are willing to join the social media marketing field. It has three stages.
First step is Launch. Lauch menas setting up the base skills and base information that will help to start what you want to do such as facebook, linkedin, twitter and so on. I think is step is the most important part to ROI. It is just like architecture. If you are building a house and base con structure is not well made, the house will collapse and it is same for ROI or any kind of marketing field.
Second step is Management. Basically, it menas managing the company for whatever they are dealing with. Now company start to approach to their field to make some movement or to develop their company. While this process, it can be very tactical and time consuming but need patient. Instead of getting or wanting the result right away, taking time waiting for mid to long term result is better. 
Third step is Optimization. Optimization. This is fun part. Getting a result from what the company did and understanding the values of customers. Through this process, company can change their ways to approach to people and develop. However to reach this point company have to dedicate to what they are doing and not so many companies has reached this point.
Thing is, all these are connected to one conclusion. Social media marketing is everywhere.  Social media marketing can be used in everywhere and it is not jus to socialized with people. It is more used to develop oneself or the company and the ultimate goal is to make a profit.

Case&Speaker

During the class, we had a guest speaker who is professional blogger. First impression to me was shocked. Through the class I have learned that there are people who do blogging as their job and make earning through that. However I thought it was not a job to invest my time and i thought it would be very hard. As i thought she was very dedicated blogger. Her blog topic was based her children’s life and her life with the children. First thing she mentioned was be dedicated to you blog and willing to spend a lot of time if you want to become professional blogger and I can why she said that. Blog is all about communicating with people.  Always beware of what you are writing on you blog and what you are trying to say which can be very stressful and time consuming. You have to like it in order to make progress and to out stand in the competition. She told her story about how she was very stressed out while she was working with blog and few kinds of happening that frustrated her. I again realized how blog working is tough and not an easy job to just play around. Sincereness and open heart will get attention from people. Also I was surprised how advertisement company contact the blogger to advertise their company and products but to reach that level certain numbers of people and fans who follow the blog are needed.

Knowledge sharing!!

Hello guys!! Hope you’re having great day. Through the searching information online, i realized how it internet is so important to our lives. I just wanted to share some information that i know and learned through searching online.
As all you can see i am bike geek. I personally ride Fixie which short term of fixed gear bike. Fixed gear bike is different than any regular bike. Fixed gear means bike’s crank and cog which mean parts that makes bike to run is fixed and connected together. Any regular bike can shift the gear while riding bike and also most of them are free wheel. So while you are riding bike, you can shift the gears rest your leg. On the other hand, fixed gear can’t not rest your leg while bike is running because simply it is fixed. no movement on leg means bike is stopped. I personally think fixed gear bike makes your thigh and hamstring stronger and leaner than any other bikes. Also fixed became one of the cultures to teens and young people. compare to other bikes, fixie does not have that many parts to put in and all the parts represent yourself. people put the parts they like and all of them are unique and has different colors. 

**Here are some pictures of fixie**





This is Cog and Crankset that i mentioned.
