Media metrics: With Spredfast, companies can evaluate how people read, pass along, or comment on content on social media websites over time.
Social Agency
Spredfast gives companies a way to plan and manage content deployment. For instance, users can write blog entries, tweets, or Facebook updates ahead of time and then schedule when they will be posted. A store that might offer an online coupon code or one-day sale could, with Spredfast, have Twitter push that code out several times a day to increase the number of site visitors. The software's metrics, McCaskill says, let marketers figure out the best times to post updates. Spredfast also makes it easy for them to test different strategies.
The company launched a year ago as a maker of custom Facebook applications. When Facebook redesigned its home page, says McCaskill, Social Agency's business model was effectively torpedoed. As part of its sales strategy, the company had spent a lot of time helping clients plan their social media strategies. So the founders retooled and used their expertise to start building Spredfast about nine months ago. The software launched in private beta in September, public beta in October, and had its "official" launch on December 2.
Social Agency plans to introduce a feature by the end of January that will help users design a social media campaign based on their objectives. McCaskill says that Spredfast will most likely present users with a list of common marketing goals that they can check off. The software will suggest a template for a campaign based on what's worked best for clients with similar goals.

I'm sure most of your readers know how simple it is to create a Google Alert so you can track a host of web, news and other submissions with Google. When I got the alert this AM on a comment I left on this outstanding Blog, I was pleasantly surprised to see your headline on make money w/ social media.
I wasn't familiar with some of these tracking tools mentioned in your article, so this was a great find and one I will share with my readers at Social Media Marketing Plus and my buddies on the Warrior Forum who will want to know about this as well.
