Social Media Marketing (SMM)

According to Mashable, social media marketing refers to the process of gaining website traffic, attention, leads or conversion through social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+.

Social media marketing management centers on efforts to create content that attracts attention and encourages readers to share it with their social networks. This form of marketing is driven by word-of-mouth, resulting in earned media rather than paid media. Increased communication for organizations fosters brand awareness and often, improved customer service.
