Social Monitoring What HashTag Are You

#SocialRift

When doing reports for brands you're often asked to track the number of uses a particular #hastag gets used.  It's a great way of measuring engagement and exposure to your brand.  If people are using the hashtag the way you intended things are just peachy.

Actually the video you'll notice is an embedded video from Facebook and not YouTube.  I'll save that commentary for a different video, so for now check this out:
