People are talking, whether you like it or not. How can you know what they say?
I found this article really useful.
Here’s what you can do:
- Set up Google Alert by keywords to get emails anytime someone talks about you
- Use SocialMention to track and measure conversations about you and your competitors on major sites and social networks. You can also add a widget on your website.
- Use a tool such as Tweetdeck or Hootsuite to track and manage conversations on Twitter and other social networks.
- Monitor the blogosphere through Technorati.
If you need a more detailed analysis you can always look for a structured servoce, such as BuzzReader.
