I joined a group named Girls Love Travel because this group is a global community of active and aspiring female travelers providing resources and empowerment to one another through safety, socializing and support. I can share my experiences, information and recommendations to go about  travel with Girls all over the world, and it was attractive for me. I asked them "Which do you better, traveling alone or traveling with someone? Why? I haven't traveled alone, so I would like to hear your experience of traveling alone.
Second, I joined a group on Facebook named Photography Beginners because I want to see many pictures people all over the world take. Then, I posted a picture I had taken in Riverside.
This experience to participate in groups on Facebook is great. At first, I was nervous because I expected that nobody will comment. However, many people gave me feedback ( more than 15 comments ), and they are effective and new for me. I really appreciate for providing the opportunity to join groups online with us. Thank you, Professor!

Strengths and weaknesses of using Social Media Networks and online communities/groups to facilitate business networking and potential market research.
-I think targeted advertising is one of the strength of utilizing Social Media Networks. Although social media can be used to spread a company's message for free, fee-based advertising options are also available. One of the best aspects of social networking is the ability to deliver your content only to those users with the most potential interest in your product or service. Each social platform enables a business to deliver specific content to a very specific target group. This approach can maximize targeted reach while minimizing waste. 
On the other hand, the weakness of using Social Media Networks and online communities is the possibility of backlash. There are jokes among friends and community members online, but the joke with the world at-large is much different. Once potentially offensive content is posted online, the amount of feedback can be excessive and is often brutal. This backlash can also have a long-term impact on a person's future, especially in remaining them over the net in-a-lifetime.

Run stats on your personal(Facebook, Blog, LinkedIn, Twitter) sites, instructions will be provided in Moodle. Post a summary of your findings on your Blog. Blog I posted 8 articles, and I got 11 comments in total. I got the most comments on Sunday. I learned from case study that the week has the greatest number of views for blogs is Monday. I posted it late at night on Sunday. Therefore, I guess everyone see it on Monday and gave me many comments. Also, I guess that Monday is the beginning of a week and people reset the feeling by reading blogs. Another reason is that people enjoy the weekend and their leisure time and do not have time to access to blogs. I my opinion, the Week 2 post got the highest view because I started posting a link to the article on my blog. Therefore, many people in particular, my friends on Facebook came to see my blog just wondering. Facebook I learned that I need to focus on not only "Like" but also "Talking About This" on Face...

 Blog a summary of the case and your findings of your case study.  Highlight the top 3 most important lessons learned from the case study.  Explain why these lessons are important in order to help you to formulate effective strategies in social media. This week I learned social media strategies through case study.  First of all, I think that it is significant that almost 80% of the population in the United States is centralized in the East Coast because I have to take into account if I establish my company in the U.S.. The best time to post for a United States audience to reach the most people. This will help me to get more traffic, more engagement, and more followers. In addition, I learned that I need to focus on not only "Like" but also "Talking About This" on Facebook. "Taking About This" is the number of people who have created a story from your page post.It indicates how well a page is engaging fans, not simply how popular something is, and ...

Discuss why it is important to market yourself? How can you build your brand online? -I think that marketing myself is important because it is an effective way to sell myself to a company that I want to work in. Showing my interests, passions and personal skills is available to know a more human side by employers. In addition,  marketing tools I have to market and promote myself are either free or low cost that is not a burden to me. In other words, I can market and promote myself easily because of free. Therefore, marketing myself is important to administrate a business in a familiar manner. -The first step to build my brand online is starting a blog that has a lot of impacts and unique design because it has a good first impression and plays a important big visual role. Next, it is necessary for building brand awareness and recognition to have something that symbolizes my brand's image when I get brand logo designed. In the same way, I have to consider a creative tag...
