Manage Your Current ProfilesManage Your Current Profiles

Brickell Honda’s Social Media Management Dashboard set up by Tier 10 Marketing allows quick comparisons of the latest rankings and SEO authority for over 500 User Generated Content (UGC) sites allowing Brickell’s Social Marketing team to quickly determine where content placements will reach the most consumers in the Miami area…

As seen in this example, when comparing Viddler to Howcast, which was shown in the previous screen, Brickell Honda can reach more consumers and gain more SEO rank and authority by placing videos on Viddler first, then on Howcast if there is time available… However, based on the pop-up description provided for Howcast, we also know that is the Brickell Honda video is a “How To” video, then it would be more relevant on Howcast!
