Getting Results From Your Business Facebook Page

By MSW -
Facebook can be a very powerful marketing tool for your business, but how do you know if it's doing your business any good? How do you know if the time, money, and energy you are putting into it is paying off? Our experienced social media team is happy to bring you information on Facebook ROI and why it's beneficial to know how to measure it.

Facebook Ads

Using Facebook Ads can be one of the best ways to market online. They allow you to target a specific demographic with an investment that fits your budget. You choose the amount of money you put into them. MSW Interactive Designs can assist you with knowing how much to put on different ads. 

What's Facebook ROI?


 Facebook ROI (or Return on Investment) is what your business gets back from the time, money and resources you have put into your Facebook marketing. This can mean different things for different companies based on the goals that have been set for your social media marketing.

Facebook Insights

Your business Facebook Insights can be accessed by doing the following:

 1. Scroll to the top of your business Facebook page.
2. Click "Insights."
3. You will see;

  • Overview
  • Promotions
  • Likes
  • Reach
  • Page Views
  • Page Previews
  • Actions on Page
  • Posts
  • Events
  • Videos
  • People
  • Messages
Facebook Insights can be accessed by anyone who is an admin on your page. You can see things like: how many likes your page received this week vs. last week, the engagement rates of different posts, likes, shares, comments, etc, and how many likes per post were "organic" or from a Facebook Ad. "Organic" means how many people liked your post before you "boosted" it by investing money on the post. Analyze the numbers and determine what posts worked best for your business. Then, do more of those.


Google Analytics

While Facebook Insights track your Facebook Ads, Google Analytics track how many people visit your website specifically from Facebook. When a Facebook user visits your Facebook page and clicks on a link you posted to your website, you'll want to use analytics to measure and assess trends on your site, including conversions. Open Google Analytics and go to Acquisition>All Traffic>Source/Medium to see where your website visitors started from. This will tell you if the majority of your website visitors are coming from Facebook, perhaps another social media platform you are using, or searching on google. 


Knowing how to analyze your Social Media is an important part of measuring your Marketing ROI. The likes you are getting on your business Facebook page could easily turn into paying customers. Use Facebook Insights and Google Analytics to accurately determine which Facebook Ads and posts are working for you and which aren't. Doing this will help you to make informed decisions for your Facebook promotions in the future. If you need assistance with your Facebook promotions, call our expert social media team at 573-552-8403.

Blogs versus Websites

By MSW -
I recently had a client ask me if they should have a blog instead of a website. In formulating my answer to that question, it occurred to me that other clients may be interested in the answer, as well ... hence my decision to add it to my blog. Every small business should have a website . It's simply expected by your existing customers and potential customers. Every business should have a blog, as well ... perhaps there are a few exceptions. The blog and the website complement each other. The anwer is ... BOTH! Your website is your rock - it's the foundation of your presence online. It can be as simple as an online sales brochure or as complex as a full eCommerce storefront. Your customers will ask you for your website address, not your blog address. Your business should definitely have a website. Your blog enhances your website. It is a tool (like a journal) that you contribute to on a regular basis - daily, weekly, whatever works best for you. When you contribute to your blog

Internet Marketing Trends for 2016

By MSW -

Another year has passed and the team at MSW Interactive Designs has identified some trends you should keep an eye on for your business internet marketing . As we said in our previous blog, your website is no longer enough for you to stay on top and these trends seem to back up our thinking! 1) Mobile will dominate the market and your desktop.  Google is paying much more attention to mobile searches than it ever has. In fact, according to Google, a mobile version of your website is “perfectly acceptable” and an optimized desktop website may not be needed. We still think a great looking, properly optimized desktop website is needed, but you can’t ignore the direction Google is giving us. Get a mobile optimized site for 2016 if you don’t already have one. 2) Facebook is still the King of Social Media . According to Statista.com , Facebook users will rise to 161 MILLION in 2016 and continue to rise to 172 Million by 2019. That’s a lot of potential customers. Facebook
