Do you think from the purge moment of Facebook that DJs and their management are finally starting to understand the importance of real relationships with fans? DJs and managers are still willing to risk their reputation, (financial) value, integrity, ethics, trust, clients and relationships for a few hundred or thousands of questionable fans on Facebook.
As a DJ you are part of the entire internet ecosystem. Even more so when you wish to have a better chance of being embraced by the end user or the (future) fan or client. In addition, as a DJ you must realize that you exist thanks to content (intellectual property) and that you offer functionality and that you are data.
Building a community takes time and investment. Purchasing fans is short sided when you understand social media. By the way, for those who do not know, it is in direct violation, for example with Facebook terms and conditions. These questionable accounts could be defined as questionable data which also depreciates the financial value of a company. Further to using click farms or robots when you are not injecting your cash in the right places you will be wasting money. This means in terms of metrics and demographical targeting you are trying to reach questionable fans.
Based on and inspired by the paper Tomorrowland: Followed by humans or robots in which questionable fans has been described, the new entries in the DJ Mag Top 100 2014 have been examined. This report is a preview of the Rankingz EDM Monitor 2014 and helps to identify if Facebook fan pages of the DJs which entered the Top 100 in 2014 have a human following and help them to understand that they will depreciate their network value when a purge of Facebook takes place.
Have you ever looked at a Facebook page of a DJ which recently augmented really quickly? You checked out his or her Facebook page and found that he or she gained thousands of fans in a short amount of time.
At first you may think to yourself this DJ must really know how to play the social media game and build a community. However, when you double check you will see that the engagement of the DJ itself is non-existent, even when the DJ has thousands or millions of fans. You checked on some of the likes the DJ received on recent posts and its obvious they are from a country foreign to the DJ. Its likely to determine these likes are robots.
This report has not been conducted to judge the way the DJs in this report operates his or her social media strategy or to judge if a DJ is cheating or not. But this study provides some lessons from which you might benefit when you operate your social media strategy and build real company value.
Lower but more accurate Like counts actually help a DJs Facebook page. Administrators might not be able to tout the DJs Facebook pages size the same way, but theyll be better able to assess what content is resonating with their audiences.
If a DJs Facebook page has 10,000 fans but 4,000 are questionable and the administrator publishes an update that got 2,500 Likes, the administrator might think only a quarter of the fans are interested in that content. But with an accurate fan count of 6,000, the administrator would know nearly half the fans enjoyed the specific post and that they should post more with a similar vibe.
Meanwhile, on the user side of things, purging of questionable accounts means fewer spam friend requests and comments, and a reduced risk of being scammed. You will also get a better idea of your real financial value of your data because numbers would not be inflated by questionable accounts. For sure it is good to conduct a due diligence on your Facebook page numbers once in a while when the red flags of questionable data show up.
INTRODUCTION SUMMARY

The best and only way to see success in social media is by investing in real fans. Invest in real people, real relationships, not in robots. At the end of the day those are the fans you develop your products and services for. They are a DJs real assets, the business model and the financial value.
4 aspects to take into consideration while managing your community:
Consider the way you feel about the fans you follow and how they to speak to you. Offer your community valuable and a variety of updates. Establish a system to inform the stakeholders that are making your products,
content or whatever you create. Use data to help make decisions about how you want to interact with your
community and build your company value.
Since Facebook users fill in a lot of information about themselves starting with basic information such as where they live, their gender and their age etc. an advertiser can be quite specific when deciding who to buy Facebook Ads for. For advertising on Facebook questionable data means wasting money on demographics which are corrupt.
Building a community takes time and investment. Listening to, participating in and anticipating on the data which is created in so-called conversations and interactions is what its all about. The generated data must be stored, analyzed and related to the data which you (possibly) already have. Keep in mind questionable accounts will be defined as questionable data.
Purchasing questionable fans is short sided when you understand social media. By the way, for those who do not know, it is in direct violation with Facebook terms and conditions. And finally, not to forget it is also a waste of money. At the end of the day Facebook will purge these bought robots and your community will devaluate in the broadest sense of the word. So you as a DJ will be depreciated financially and will lose fan trust ...
24 DJs (new entries) from the Top 100 2014 in this report have been examined over the last 6 months.
DVBSS biggest fan growth in 6 months time Two purge moments (in the middle of March 2015 and
