Celebrate regconize the important of using social media to
connect with their fans
With social networking becoming an important part of every common man's life, even the celebrities are heading towards this field of connectivity by opening social media accounts on platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. This gets them a huge fan following and in return, they get to converse with real people in real life leaving behind the artificiality they exhibit.
As a result of a huge fan following, stars have top ranks on these sites. Each site has a different celeb who ranks number one. Let's have a look at the top celebs on each of these social networking platforms.

Facebook

With regards to Facebook, Eminem tops the list members. Secondly it's Rihanna with 58 229 744 fan page members, Lady Gaga comes in third. Shakira occupies the fourth position. Even after his death, Michael Jackson still has a loyal fan following of 50 357 997 people. The footballer Cristiano Ronaldo ranks sixth in this list with fan page members. Next, in seventh and eighth place, is Justin Bieber and Katy Perry, Akon and Bob Marley hold the ninth and tenth positions.

YouTube

Shakira comes in sixth position. Beyonce takes seventh place. Next is Britney Spears . The ninth and tenth positions are held by Chris Brown and Pitbull.

With the fan pages constantly growing, it would be difficult to say who will rank number one on all these sites as the numbers change on a very regular basis.
some celebrities engage in facebooking and tweeting merely to connect with fans and well…for the fun of it.  But why would celebrities bother with social media sites? What’s in it for them? A major incentive behind celebrity facebooking and tweeting is the ability to bypass the media and connect directly with fans. Social media sites offer celebs an unobstructed pipeline to share parts of their lives with fans. With social media sites, celebrities can shield themselves from vicious tabloids and distorted facts. Facebook and Twitter allow celebrities to dispel rumors about themselves and provide truthful and honest accounts of their lives

Majority of ads are now being placed online

online advertiments for American mattsess

The debate over whether online media will replace print has been going for years, but we have to consider the time and space that to be an effective company those days you need to use different medium to reach target audiences. The facts that some companies face demands when they choose to use newspapers. Looking on ABC figures there is a decline for newspapers. SA's media dynamics are unlike those anywhere else in the world. The technology has run every cent of people life and is the way of the future. Some companies have discovered this, Count the time that you spend online in whatever platform you will come across an ads, say simple DEAL.  Despite the economic challenges and the fact that the majority of ads are now being placed online, there are still hundreds of thousands of classifieds being sold in print. Once again, this highlights that high internet data costs are one of the many contributing factors in the print classifieds titles having not "died out". Companies that refuse to invest in print or that are merely discontinuing their print publications should consider the needs and buying patterns of the South African market. Looking on our society we live upon they still value print publication, because is local they can buy it and go to read at home, and pass it to someone else, also give people topics to talk about. My point is not on comparisons, is on the fact that Majority of ads are now being placed online
Important tips
The trick is to keep the online and the offline business separate while remaining transparent at all times. Optimise all the opportunities that remain in print without diluting the focus of the online team. Moreover, and the most important, keep abreast of the latest trends - especially the move towards mobility. Define your audiences by using the Public Relations Practitioner as your tool to define which medium your customers find most convenient is what you should give them. Mobile is a completely different environment from the desktop and people use it in a very particular way. Gone are the days when mobile devices were primarily used for calls. It has become a more comprehensive, inclusive platform, assuming the role personal computers did years ago. In the classified space, for example, mobile ad placements have gone from zero three years ago to 17% today, and we expect that to take off significantly in the next few years.

JUJU still get the media coverage



Julius Malema adresses the mineworkers at Gold field.
The SABC still continue to put Julius Malema on screen. According to what is happening to MArikana as Malema once place the idea of mines nationalisation during his time in ANC. The important point here is that decision on how to cover events involving expelled ANC Youth League president Julius Malema, is based on news value and not popularity, SABC acting head of news Jimi Matthews said in a report on Friday. Every publicity look for something  that consist of News coverage based on news value .There has to be a responsible attitude however Julius Malema criticise the government and in the other hand the employees support Malema. My question is how they give Julius Malema a platform to send his message, does this increase more debate to the public and how we use our perception through NUM's. In Public Relation perception message need to be  contextualised  and think about the consequences because  Lonmin [JSE:LON] has offered striking workers a R900 increase to R5 500 a month for entry-level workers, "very far" from their demand of R12 500. All our eyes watch the tragic happens at Marikana but this offer is beyong or R5 500 too less for them, or the voluntarily took by Malema encourages more problem for desperation of poor people, bear in mind that he also use SABC to send his message. The SABC has come under fire after some staff members claimed that some coverage of Malema had been pulled.Matthews defended the public broadcaster's coverage, and said they had led Tuesday evening's broadcast with Malema speaking to mineworkers at Gold Fields.He said the SABC had not broadcast Malema's address.more
