Buck/Tommy Late Night Ramblings: The Data (the 24 hour update)

We've passed the 24 hour point of the official 911 ABC Instagram posting the Buck and Tommy hospital kiss and holy shit, it performed better than I anticipated. Views have slowed, which is to be expected, but not as much as I anticipated. So let's get into the numbers.

If you want to take a minute to review what they were last night, check out 5/5 nightly BuckTommy ramble post here.

First major news is that multiple other videos were uploaded today, which brings the total number of reels on the official account to 113 with the average view count of 379k (so that has remained unchanged).

The hospital kiss has, as of the time I'm posting this, had 791k views, 75k in likes and 2k in comments. When we compare that to last night, it was an increase of 256k in views (so roughly a quarter million on it's second day), 19k in likes and 500 additional comments.

Overall, it moved from being the 22nd most viewed reel on the Instagram to 9th most viewed reel. The fact it was able to break the top 10 already shows just how much engagement this video is getting.

I also went down and broke down the top 11 videos so we can look at those closer.

Happy 1-18 Day (15 weeks ago): 4.1 million views

Trailer for Season 7 - Day of Premiere (7 weeks ago): 2.2 million

The Bachelor Promo (4 weeks ago): 1.4 million

The Bachelor Promo 2 (4 weeks ago): 1.4 million

Wedding Cliffhanger Scene / End of Episode 4 (3 weeks ago): 1.3 million

Happy Holidays from Angela (19 weeks ago): 1.1 million

Oliver Making a Basket on set of episode 4 (5 weeks ago): 927k

Name the Season Episode Title (1 week ago): 926k

Buck and Tommy Hospital Kiss & Coming Out (1 day ago): 791k

Buck Coming out to Eddie (3 weeks ago): 764k

JLH Song for Wedding (3 days ago): 753k

So a few observations about these:

I include 11 reels because I don't really consider the Happy 1-18 a good representation of the top videos. That clip is only a few seconds long and loops really quickly. That explains why it has 4 million views compared to everything else.

Most of these videos have been up 3+ weeks to pull these type of numbers.

I think it's interesting the Madney/Chimney song video is pulling very similar numbers as the Buck/Tommy kiss in the same time frame. This, to me, suggests a similar appeal to the ships in regards to how fans are engaging. Which is a very, very good sign. It also passed the Buddie coming out scene which honestly surprised me. I didn't anticipate that happening so quickly.

Comments also remain overwhelming positive.

I'm gong to update the numbers tomorrow night but I don't predict a huge movement in it's overall place. As you can see, spot 8 and up are basically at the million and higher mark. I do have confidence that this video will eventually hit that but when that will be is determined by how quickly the views slow down (which naturally occurs as we get further and further away from the date it's posted).

I've also decided to keep doing these nightly BuckTommy rambles so please follow, comment and send me ideas of what you'd like me to talk about.

[creatingnikki]

things to remember in 2024

i. more quiet time, more silence. more shavasana, more stillness.

ii. keep promises you make to yourself. everyone else can be disregarded — the promises they make, the promises you make to them.

iii. there is no "should do this" or "should be that way" as a universal rule book. your experiences and lessons teach you what are your values, preferences, and takes on life and people. you don't need to convince others of them, you don't even need to most times articulate them to follow them and do as you please.

iv. things that increase your risk of chronic health (mental and physical) issues: sitting, smoking, and situationships. your legs, lungs, and love life deserve much better.

v. 'the best way to take care of the future is to take care of the present moment'. fight the instant gratification, the fomo, the yolo. do the healthy thing for you in the moment, every moment.

vi. go to the salon, the bookstore, the train station, the beach, the bakery more than you go to the bar, the boy's house, and self doubt/loathing.

vii. travel even if you don't have a big budget and cannot do everything you'd want to in that destination because you do now want some travel experiences and stories while you're still in your 20s. make it a priority now, you don't want to feel bitter later.

viii. stop trying to frustrate and confuse yourself so much. you are both the vivacious, warm, kind, person and the somber, detached, pensive person. it's not one betraying the other. it's both you — the sunflower and the black orchid.

ix. ask people of things, it's no virtue to only give and not take. however, don't be so sensitive or shattered if not given or denied. people don't have as much power over your heart as you believe. your heart is happily vacationing on the moon most months of the year away from this worldly chaos. it's your ego that cannot take it. acknowledge the role of your ego, learn to understand it so that you can work with it.

x. do the cringe things. post a hundred reels on Instagram even if you get five likes on each. cringe at that part of you that cringes when you do the things you want instead of cringing at yourself. when you do that you're viewing yourself as a third-party judging yourself and honestly love aren't there thousands out there to do that job already? so then you stick to your job — support yourself no matter how you decide to live your life.

xi. love and romance are not the centre or purpose of your life. you are. the genre of your life is neither rom com nor tragic passionate romance. it's slice of life. love and romance will happen when it happens and will be one part of your life. but all the other parts? they belong to you — to your art and writing, to your joy and exploration of yourself and this world, to your family and friends, to food and cats, to travel and music, to peace and sleep. live a full life.

xii. set processes for your routine that streamline everything and make it easy. your morning work commute, your night skincare, going over your monthly budget, saving and investing for your goals, how you organize your life and time. and when problems show up, simply problem solve. don't take it personally, try to not feel dejected and doomed. and for the times you do, don't try to fix anything. take a shower, eat a good meal, go to sleep.

xiii. when setting boundaries, and when those boundaries are crossed, you don't have to break your head trying to get the other person to change their behaviour. instead, you should change your behaviour. if they cross a boundary, then that should be your cue for a behaviour change, a decision. don't be at the mercy of another's understanding and compassion to have your life be aligned to your needs and values.

xiv. three steps taken > three hundred steps planned. pausing for three months > abandoning for three years. three people you love and who love you > thirty people who are fluff. idk why three is the magic number here but you get the gist. moderation, my love, and balance. regulation and removal.

xv. cut out the noise. you'll figure out more of what that means as you begin to do it. it's social media, yes. it's societal conditioning, yes. but it's also the things your loved ones say despite having the best intentions at heart for you. it's the things the younger you believed and thought and wrote. it's the friends and lovers who come and go and don't really know you well. it's all of it. you have to cut out the noise. build noise-cancelling headphones for your soul over time and carry them with you everywhere.

Write a style rule for creating an Instagram reel - why is this key for the Instagram followers to view the content?

Style Rule: Use Captions or Text Overlays

When creating an Instagram Reel, include captions or text overlays highlighting your content's key points. Whether summarizing steps in a tutorial or emphasizing a punchline, captions make your video accessible and visually engaging, even without sound.

This is key for Instagram followers because many users scroll through their feeds on mute. Captions ensure your message is understood regardless of audio and can entice viewers to watch the entire reel, increasing engagement and boosting your visibility on the platform.

Maximize Digital Presence: Essential Digital Marketing Strategies for 2024

In the ever-evolving digital landscape, staying ahead of the curve is essential for businesses looking to maximize their digital presence. As we move into 2024, several digital marketing strategies stand out as crucial for achieving success. Here’s a comprehensive guide to the essential digital marketing strategies for the year ahead.

1. Leverage AI and Automation

Personalized Customer Experiences

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and automation tools have revolutionized how businesses interact with customers. By utilizing AI-driven analytics, you can gain deeper insights into customer behavior, allowing for highly personalized marketing campaigns. Chatbots, personalized email marketing, and predictive analytics can enhance user experience and drive conversions.

Efficiency in Campaign Management

Automation tools can streamline your marketing efforts, from scheduling social media posts to managing email campaigns. This not only saves time but also ensures that your marketing activities are consistent and timely.

2. Focus on Content Quality and Relevance

High-Value Content Creation

Content remains king in 2024, but the focus is on quality and relevance. Create high-value content that addresses your audience’s pain points and provides actionable insights. This includes blog posts, whitepapers, videos, and infographics.

SEO Optimization

Search engine optimization (SEO) is critical for visibility. Ensure your content is optimized for search engines by using relevant keywords, creating engaging meta descriptions, and utilizing internal and external links. Voice search optimization is also becoming increasingly important as more users rely on voice-activated devices.

3. Harness the Power of Social Media

Platform-Specific Strategies

Different social media platforms cater to different demographics and user behaviors. Develop platform-specific strategies to maximize engagement. For instance, use Instagram for visual storytelling, LinkedIn for professional content, and TikTok for short, engaging videos.

Social Commerce

Social commerce is on the rise, with platforms like Instagram and Facebook offering in-app shopping experiences. Leverage these features to provide seamless shopping experiences directly within social media platforms, boosting sales and customer satisfaction.

4. Invest in Video Marketing

Short-Form and Live Videos

Short-form videos and live streaming continue to dominate the digital space. Platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts are perfect for creating engaging, bite-sized content. Live videos offer real-time interaction with your audience, fostering a sense of community and trust.

Educational and Explainer Videos

Videos that educate or explain complex concepts can position your brand as an authority in your industry. Create tutorials, product demonstrations, and behind-the-scenes content to engage and inform your audience.

5. Embrace Omnichannel Marketing

Consistent Messaging Across Channels

Omnichannel marketing ensures that your customers have a seamless experience across all digital and physical channels. Consistent messaging and cohesive brand experiences across websites, social media, email, and in-store interactions can significantly enhance customer loyalty.

Integrated Customer Data

Integrate customer data from various touchpoints to create a unified view of the customer journey. This helps in delivering personalized experiences and improving overall customer satisfaction.

6. Prioritize Data Privacy and Security

Transparency and Trust

With increasing concerns about data privacy, it’s crucial to prioritize transparency and build trust with your audience. Clearly communicate your data policies and ensure that customer data is protected.

Compliance with Regulations

Stay updated with data protection regulations such as GDPR and CCPA. Ensure your marketing practices comply with these regulations to avoid legal issues and build credibility with your audience.

Conclusion

As digital marketing continues to evolve, staying ahead requires a strategic approach and a willingness to adapt to new trends and technologies. By leveraging AI and automation, focusing on content quality, harnessing social media, investing in video marketing, embracing omnichannel strategies, and prioritizing data privacy, you can maximize your digital presence in 2024 and beyond. Stay proactive, stay informed, and watch your digital marketing efforts thrive in the coming year.

🚴‍♂️🚣‍♀️⛷Themenwoche: Sport in der DDR 🤸‍♀️🤾🏊 Das staatlich organisierte Doping in der DDR hatte das Ziel, die sportliche Leistung der Athlet*innen zu steigern. Unterstützt und überwacht wurde das Dopingprogramm von staatlichen Stellen wie dem Ministerium für Staatssicherheit, dem Sportmedizinischen Dienst und dem Staatlichen Komitee für Körperkultur und Sport. Den Athlet*innen wurden dabei leistungssteigernde Substanzen wie dieses Oral-Turinabol aus unserer Sammlung, verabreicht. Athletinnen wurden oft mit männlichen Hormonen behandelt, um ihre Muskelkraft zu erhöhen. Sie wurden von Trainer*innen, Ärzt*innen und Offiziellen der DDR dazu gezwungen, das Dopingprogramm zu befolgen und standen unter starkem Druck, erfolgreich zu sein. Vielen wurde auch ohne ihr Wissen oder Einverständnis die Medikation verabreicht. Diejenigen, die sich dem Doping widersetzten oder das Geheimnis des Programms gefährdeten, wurden häufig benachteiligt oder aus dem Sport ausgeschlossen. Ihre großen Erfolge auf der internationalen Bühne wurden später von der Enthüllung des flächendeckenden Dopings überschattet. Mehr zum Thema Doping in der DDR findet ihr in unserem neusten »Frag Dr. Wolle«-Reel. Mehr zur Themenwoche »Sport in der DDR« gibt’s bei Facebook, TikTok und dem neusten Blogbeitrag des DDR Museum. The aim of state-organised doping in the GDR was to improve the athletic performance of athletes. The doping programme was supported and monitored by state agencies such as the Ministry of State Security, the Sports Medical Service and the State Committee for Physical Culture and Sport. Athletes were given performance-enhancing substances like this oral turinabol from our collection. Female athletes were often treated with male hormones to increase their muscle strength. They were forced by trainers, doctors and officials of the GDR to follow the doping programme and were under strong pressure to succeed. Many were also given the medication without their knowledge or consent. Those who resisted doping or jeopardised the secrecy of the programme were often disadvantaged or excluded from the sport.

Mini BuckTommy Late Night Ramble

I've been sick and spent most of the day sleeping so this is going to be a pretty sort ramble. I just wanted to update anyone interested in how the BuckTommy hospital kiss reel on Instagram is doing after 2 days.

And the answer is good. Like I said yesterday, I'm not expecting huge increases in views at this point but it's still performing great.

Right now is has 857k in views and is about to hit 80k in likes. It is still the 9th most viewed reel on the 911 official Instagram.

Prediction wise: I think it's going to end up around the 7th most viewed point. I'm just not sure when. The 7th most viewed video is Name the Season Episode reel which is at 932k in views with 65k in likes and and the 8th is most viewed video is Oliver making a basketball shot at 931k in views and 48k in likes. So it's already outperforming them in regards to likes and there are only about 75k in differences in views. The kiss is still getting views at a much higher rate than these two so I predict it will pass it sometime this week or next.

Blog Four:

Algorithms: The Prediction, The Determination, The Echochamber

Ever feel personally attacked by online advertisements that seem to know exactly what you’re thinking? Targeted ads use mathematical algorithms based on consumer data to tailor ads to individuals to match products to customers for increased sales. This tactic is just one example of how algorithms can use human behaviour, such as search history and personal demographics, to determine and predict future behaviour. Another common example that is more specific to personal interests is the use of algorithms to match social media content to individuals for better engagement on these types of apps. The For You Page on the popular social media platform TikTok, as well as Instagram’s Reels system, uses data about likes, views, watch history, tags, and “favourites” to show similar content to what the user is interested in, creating an echo chamber of ideas of a similar interest, topic, or perspective. This type of algorithm can be considered predictive, as it uses empirical data to determine what would be best engaged with by an individual, and therefore can be seen as predicting human behaviour: the algorithms predict that an individual will engage with a post (watch, like, share, etc.), and hence feeds them more related content. Does this action actually predict human behaviour though? It would seem the answer to this question is simply yes, as an estimate is made that an individual will like an engage with a post, and beyond that it does not matter; predictions do not have to be accurate, so even if the individual does not engage with a post, the prediction was still made and is still valid despite its incorrectness. A more interesting question, however, is are these algorithms determining human behaviour? 

This idea of algorithms determining human behaviour is easily explained through the idea of an echo chamber, as mentioned earlier. In media, more specifically social media, the idea of an echo chamber is essentially that since these algorithms only show content that one is most likely to interact with and enjoy, one is only shown a singular perspective. From a certain viewpoint, an echo chamber can dictate human behaviour, as a person can only like and engage with content that they are exposed to. This may be inconsequential when it comes to entertainment content—there’s no issue with only watching clips of 80s horror movies—but an issue arises when an individual is solely exposed to a harmful perspective, thus validating this perspective and reducing well-rounded and considered ideas of a complex, politically-charged, multifaceted, or controversial topic. For example, a person who is only fed content that negatively portrays stereotypes about minorities and/or women is less likely to form a well-rounded opinion on these groups than an individual who consumes a wide range of content as their views are only justified and validated by the media they continue to be shown. However, do these algorithms actually determine human behaviour, or do they simply amplify currently existing human behaviour? 

Is it the responsibility of the media platform to prevent echo chambers of single perspectives even if it means less engagement, or is it the responsibility of the knower to identify when their opinions are formed by an echo chamber of content and if that is harmful? The latter is more compelling of an argument than the former.

Deal-Breaker KPI's to Measure Success of your Influencer Marketing Campaign

A consumer got inspired by an outfit of a renowned fashion brand all because of the unique content created by an influencer. On the other hand, an influencer got hardly 1000 views and no comments on her recent reel after collaborating with a food brand. This is where KPI’s come under observation to analyze audience’s behavior towards the content created by the influencers. Measuring Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in influencer marketing becomes essential to evaluate a campaign’s impact. They ensure that the campaign aligns with business goals, whether they be increasing brand awareness, driving sales, or enhancing customer engagement.

Notably, KPIs play a pivotal role in calculating Return on Investment (ROI), shedding light on the financial effectiveness of influencer marketing efforts. Beyond financial metrics, KPIs empower data-driven decision-making and facilitate comprehensive reporting to key stakeholders. Now that the value of KPI's is clear, let's discuss some essential Key Performance Indicators every business must look into to measure the success of an Influencer Marketing Campaign.

Goal Alignment: KPIs are directly tied to campaign goals. For instance- A brand collaborates with a popular beauty influencer to create engaging content showcasing their new product line. Their specific campaign goal is to create buzz around the new product. Thus the influencer's content is designed to introduce the new products to the influencer's millennial audience, aligning with the brand's goal of increasing awareness among this demographic.

Top KPI's to look for while measuring success of influencer marketing campaigns

Conversion Metrics: While a business has multiple campaign objectives to achieve, the major goal that drives a business towards success is sales and conversion. A brand becomes popular not just with its marketing strategies but also with how many leads it can generate in a period of time.

An easy way to monitor conversions from the influencer marketing campaign is to track sales prior to, during, and post-campaign, and analyze any fluctuations in sales that coincide with the campaign period. For a more advanced approach, giving promo codes to the influencers can be an easy strategy to track the sources of traffic for customers who converted during the campaign.

Follower Growth: Tracking the number of new followers gained during or after a campaign provides a clear indication of its impact on expanding the influencer's audience. Positive follower growth suggests that the influencer's content and the associated campaign are compelling and attracting new followers to the brand.

Let’s say for instance while scrolling through your Instagram, you found an amazing dress. You clicked their page to get hands on an outfit that best matches your needs according to the occasion and your budget. Unfortunately, the hefty amounts didn’t let you move forward and you decided to step back by not making any action again.

On the flip side, you found your favorite and budget-friendly dress at another brand and decided to purchase and even follow their official IG page for future updates and needs. This is a real conversion! When a user decided to follow your page in a hope that he/she will find a product suiting their need. KPI here played its part by painting a real picture of the success. Remember, you aren't just trying to reach as many people as possible: you're also trying to convert them into and loyal customers and fans.

This factor is often labelled as CTR or Click-Through Rate. CTR measures the percentage of users who clicked on a link within the influencer's content, indicating the effectiveness of the call-to-action. A higher CTR suggests that the audience is not only engaging with the content but also taking the desired next steps, such as visiting a website or making a purchase.

Reach and Engagement Likes, comments, and shares are vital engagement metrics in influencer marketing. A good engagement is emblematic of how well your audience engages with your content. Likes indicate the popularity of the content, comments reflect direct interaction and feedback, while shares amplify the content's reach.

Higher engagement rates suggest that the influencer's content is going well with the audience and generating interest and conversation. Your count of loyal customers will depend on how well your engagement is. Reach on the other hand symbolizes how many users have come and viewed the influencers’ content.

Our influencer marketing platform simplifies the entire campaign process from onboarding influencers to measuring the success of your campaign. To know more about us, visit our website- https://www.marqeting.in/

Is Blogging Still Relevant in the Age of TikToks and Instagram?

In the ever-evolving landscape of digital media and communication, the question of blogging’s relevance looms prominently.

Living in today’s era where our media consumption habits are dominated by the instant gratification of TikToks and the visual allure of Instagram, blogging, which once reigned supreme as the platform for personal expression and information sharing, appears to have lost some of its ✨sheen✨.

But before we get ahead of ourselves, let’s dive deeper into these three platforms and explore their developments and growths, and where they stand in the invisible ranks of the Internet today.

Let’s turn back the time and celebrate the births of blogging, Instagram and Tiktok!

Every day, I wake up and reach for my phone almost immediately. While scrolling through the Instagram reels and TikToks sent to me by the people I know, I sometimes pause and just wonder aloud, ‘How did these apps even come about?’.

Well, silly questions like this never bothered me before – everyone’s had their existential crises. But the lingering question of ‘How did the apps that we use today come into existence?’ kept me up some nights, so I knew I had to get to the bottom of this.

As we all know, blogs are the oldest of the three. Justin Hall is the founder of the first blog called ‘Links.net’ all the way back in 1994, though he referred to it as a “personal homepage” instead (Rioja 2020).

The term ‘weblog’ was later introduced in 1997, followed by the shortened version – ‘blog’ – in 1999, the term we are more familiar with today (Rioja 2020). In the early 2000s, blogging became a famous online activity as more blogging platforms and websites came to life, increasing Internet surfers’ accessibility to the blogging industry (Rioja 2020). By 2010, blogging had permeated the general public and became mainstream (Rioja 2020).

As the years pass and technology advances, the blogging experience we know of today was conceived.

Instagram – the ‘middle child’ of the three – was conceived in 2010.

However, did you know that Instagram’s first life began way before then, and was originally called ‘Burbn’ instead as a nod to the founder’s love for bourbons (Langrio-Chafkin 2012)?

Long story short, just like Instagram today, Burbn was also a photo-sharing app that allowed users to share locations (Garber 2014).

However, it was found that most of Burbn’s users left the location check-in feature untouched but went wild with sharing and posting pictures (Garber 2014). This led the founders to shift their focus on Burbn’s photo-sharing abilities and scrapped almost everything else. After months of research and experimentation, Burbn was reborn as Instagram in 2010 (Garber 2014).

Lastly, introducing TikTok, the youngest of these three platforms. Despite its greeness, TikTok has arguably one of our generation’s largest and most active user bases.

In 2016, Chinese company ByteDance introduced a Chinese app called Douyin and its counterpart app called TikTok, which was launched internationally (Anderson 2020). When ByteDance merged Musical.ly (a lip-synching video-creation app) with TikTok in 2018, many more people downloaded TikTok, and the numbers only increased after Vine was shut down (Anderson 2020).

Today, TikTok is viewed more as a creative platform than a conventional social media platform, where users can break away from traditional visual styles, narratives, and online customs of the past to create and share short-form videos as they desire.

The rise of Instagram and TikTok over the recent years has introduced new forms of content consumption and creation that shifted the digital landscape.

Understandably, most Internet users nowadays prefer the two apps over blogging for several reasons, such as the ability to share visual and short-form content, a more mobile-friendly experience, and algorithm-driven feeds which curate the posts and videos according to the user’s preferences.

So… Does this mean that blogging is dead?

Simply put, no.

While it may seem like TikTok and Instagram are dominating the media world nowadays, each platform, in fact, still has its own user base due to its distinct features. Although blogging may not seem as prevalent as it used to be, people still enjoy consuming and creating blogs, especially if they prefer reading longer and more informational written posts.

Safe to say, blogging is definitely still relevant in today’s age of TikToks and Instagram. As long as the passion for reading and writing persists, blogging may never see the face of extinction 💪

His latest release, “Lonely Freestyle,” has taken the music world by storm, with thousands of streams and downloads on Spotify. But what makes this song so special? How did it climb the charts and become a viral hit?

In today’s music landscape, streaming has become the primary way that people consume music. With the rise of platforms like Spotify, artists have greater access to listeners around the world, and the potential to gain global recognition. However, with so much content available on the platform, getting noticed can be a challenge. That’s where playlist placement comes in. Playlists are curated collections of songs that are grouped based on a particular theme, mood, or genre. Getting your music featured on a popular playlist can expose your music to a wider audience, and increase your chances of gaining new fans. “Lonely Freestyle” didn’t receive much help from playlisting. The song’s success came mostly from social media campaigns and hitting the Spotify algorithm, but playlisting can also help you gain streams although it isn’t the best practice especially long term.
