Will the New Facebook Emoticons be Helpful to Marketers?

The use of emoticons or emoji quickly lets you express yourself without having to type what you
are feeling about a particular conversation, image or other content; and until now that was the end of it. But the type of emoticons people use can now be used to generate another data point that lets businesses know what users are feeling about the products and services they offer.
The launch of Facebook's Reactions extends the expressive range of the Like button with five additional animated emoji: Love, Haha, Wow, Sad or Angry.
This development was in part a reaction (no pun intended) to a shift that is taking place with
Facebook's user.
In December of 2015, 1.44 billion people accessed Facebook on mobile, and according to the company, 90 percent of daily and monthly users now access Facebook with their mobile
device. Since time, cost, efficiency and delivery methods have to be optimized on mobile,
the new emoji will let users express themselves right away.
Facebook tested the emoji in several markets last year, and based on the positive feedback it received, it has launched the feature globally.
So How Can Businesses Use the Emoji?
Neil Patel, co-founder of the analytics companies
KISSmetrics, Crazy Egg, and Quick Sprout, has written one analysis already going into great detail about how emoji can be used.
Emoji are being used by everyone from Dominos Pizza and Taco Bell, to the World Wide Fund for Nature 17 endangered animal campaign as well as General Electric and its science behind climate change information campaign.
Patel recommends using emoji with different strategies to boost the engagement of your brand
with more purpose. He tells businesses and marketers to use emoticons in push app notifications to announce (and increase) product sales; understand how your audience
communicates with emoji; be aware of the cultural differences around the world and what each emoji might mean in a particular country; and to use relevant emoji.
The one thing that Patel makes clear is emoji are a form of communication and are processed in our brains as non-verbal communication. And just as you can say too much with words, you can also say way too much with emoji. Use them
judiciously as part of your overall engagement marketing campaign to get the right reaction from your content or promotion.
These cartoonish images are not just something used by teens to express their feelings anymore.
Emogi CEO and founder Travis Montaque, told Adweek, "Not only do emoji capture nuanced
feeling that may not be apparent from simple text, but it is an easier way for consumers to give
advertisers feedback so that they can leverage it to improve their marketing initiatives."
Facebook Reactions will give users a quick way to respond.
But more importantly, it will give companies yet another data point to better market their products and services.

WZoneLite – A Pretty Cool WooCommerce Amazon Affiliate Plugin .

Everyone wants to make a million dollars by being a blogger. The promise of riches and internet fame is a big draw to doing it for a lot of people, and I’m sorry to say that the reality of being a blogger (even a professional blogger!) is not quite…as financially lucrative as all that. But that’s not to say that it  can’t be –one of the best ways to start your empire is with an Amazon affiliate plugin. For me, the Amazon Associates program has been one of the biggest earners for me over the years. Not only are there CPM ads like Google Adsense (you know, the normal banner ads we all love to hate), but any time someone clicks a link from your site, you get a percentage of  anything  they buy while the token from your site lasts in their browser. If they buy a song, you get a few cents. If they buy a new MacBook Pro and iPhone? You get…a lot more cents. With that in mind, WZoneLite is a  pretty cool WooCommerce Amazon affiliate plugin that syncs everything together s...

Dangerous sex Positions For Men

The most common cause of pénile injury is found among the variety of potentially dangerous positions used for séxual intercourse. The most popular is the ‘woman-on-top’. This type of position can result in an impact between the pénis against the female pelvis or perineum that can easily traumatize the pénile cylinders. A pénis becomes érect when the lining of the cylinder within it is engorged with blood.  A pénis fracture can occur when there is trauma to the eréct pénis, resulting in a rupture of the cylinder lining. This very painful injury is often accompanied by an abrupt, distressing cracking noise that is immediately followed by dark bruising of the pénis due to blood escaping the cylinder. In ten to 30% of pénis fractures, the urethra is damaged and blood may be visible at the urinary opening. Given these signs, an injury should be relatively simple to diagnose, right? You would be surprised, even with the unsettling sounds of a fracture occurring, many men...
