CHAPTER 1: Introduction

Social media networks meant as sites where individuals could socialize meet old and new friends and interact with each other. Just as the internet was applied into business organizations from the military, so also the commercial value of social media networks became apparent and gained the attention of business managers and became the best friends of marketers in virtually all organizations with presence on the internet.

Stelzner in his 2014 report published by Social Media Examiners stressed that the top two benefits of social media marketing are increasing exposure and increasing traffic. The report further revealed that a significant 92% of all marketers indicated that their social media efforts have generated more exposure for their businesses. Increasing traffic was the second major benefit, with 80% reporting positive results. These days, almost everyone and every organization have a presence on the social media, particularly the popular ones such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, LinkedIn, Instagram, Google+ and Pinterest. As at March 2015, there were 1.415 billion active users on Facebook, and 288 million monthly active users on Twitter. With the explosive youth population in Nigeria, you can imagine what chunk of those statistics we boast as a nation. However, most corporate presence and iconic presence (prominent individuals) on the social media are mere presence with no marked focus, strategy, or intent to engage the teeming online public/market .This conundrum is largely to due to not knowing what it takes to maintain a vibrant online-cumsocial media presence. The research therefore seeks to investigate the Techniques for managing message center in a social media network service.
