Social Media & Me - August 2017
August 2017’s results were not great.
The bullet pointed highlights are
- Twitter impressions met their target
- Blogger impressions did not make their targeted goal
- The 2017 Klout target continued to fall
The other measure of influence -- how well I provide a platform for advertisers, I see that my life-long Adsense earnings increased by one cent to US$12.54.
August 2017 began with 558 followers and ended with 556 followers, which is my first month-on-month decline in followers. At month end I was following 322 accounts. 73 tweets August 2017 tweets generated 22.6 K impressions.

Between now and the 6th wave of language e-flashcards I will not seek another string of consecutive days for flashcard tweets. The focus will be on creating a new card, tweeting it, and prepending the tweet to the 6th wave’s list in order to bring about the 6th wave earlier in 2017.
The 6th wave is presently schedule to begin 8 December 2017 and continues through to nearly the end of February 2018.
The tweets of pre-existing materials are scheduled to repeat in 2018, 2019, and 2020. New 2017 material will repeat in 2018-2021.
The size of my Instagram following grew to 2,356 from 2,210. A net gain of 46 followers during July. My feed had least 3 posts every 2 days over the month.

The point of it All
The point of all this social media activity is to raise my professional profile. My 2017 target is a Klout Score of 63+.
While my Klout score fell, my kred scores rose to an influence of 696 out of 1,000 and a outreach of 6 out of 10. August 2017 is the 4th straight month where my kred score increased while my klout score fell.
While this is only 4 data points, it does indicate that the two Social Media influence measuring sites don’t map the same factors. Specifically, kred attempts to measure my Facebook and Twitter influence, while Klout measure the previous two sites plus Instagram, Blogger, Flickr, and Yammer.
