How to make most of Orkut Promote: Viral Advertising Social Network tool Posted: 03 Oct 2009 12:47 PM PDT After Facebook’s repeated attempts to take Orkut’s User base in India and Brazil, Orkut has pulled up its socks and started launching some new features. One of the immediate measures was to stop Facebook from letting import friends from Orkut.
A Viral Advertising feature and that too for free is something new to social networking.Although Facebook does have an advertisement system but it is paid. Here is how the Orkut Promote Screen will look. You can add a Youtube Video or an album or any text. The Promote will be displayed in this screen besides the profile. As the service is not live yet to many people, it will take some time to appear besides some profile. Statistics and Monitoring : You can also keep a track of how many people have seen your Promotes and can share or trash an Orkut Promote amongst your friends. You can also check out who has promoted your promote and how many times it was promoted. It will also tell how much time it was trashed too. My Verdict: It is an effective tool as you can see that our first promote reached a view of 5 people within few minutes. This inspite of the fact that the promote feature is accessible to selected people. You have an option of Deleting or Stopping a promotion too. How to access? If you want to access your Promote Screen, try pasting this URL in the Address Bar http://www.orkut.co.in/Main#Promote . If that does not work, wait till you get the invite from Orkut. So Readers what do you think about this free Viral Advertising feature?? Do you think this will be very useful for you or you will pass it as just another feature of Social Networking?
