In 2011, researchers Kietzmann, McCarthy, et al, developed a logical framework to define the most essential parts of social media, synthesizing what they’d learned in studying dozens of other research projects on the subject.

Their conclusion:

Social media is made up of seven building blocks

Identity

Sharing

Conversations

Groups

Reputation

Relationships

Presence

social media building blocks

Positive sentiment in your social media updates and in the responses to your brand leads to a positive reputation

 

Here are eight ways you can build a positive reputation in social media

Smile in your writing style

Share positive affirmations; affirm other’s posts that respond to yours
