Advertising is a powerful marketing toolpromotion and at the same time the most popular. It can be called an instrument for managing large masses of people. Being explicit or implicit, intrusive or delicately intruding into personal space, advertising works with the human subconscious, forcing to think in a key, profitable advertiser. The phenomenon quickly spread and at the moment is perceived as ubiquitous. Therefore, there is nothing surprising in that, just as often advertising products appear on television, radio and other media, they are firmly entrenched in the Internet.
Social networks have invaded our lives alsoimperceptibly, but much more recently. Oriented on the connection between people who are far away by territorial standards, soon "Twitter", "VKontakte" and "Facebook" became a place of communication in principle, a means of extracting information, including news, music, videos and films. Advertising just could not miss such a wide range of opportunities to conquer the audience. The administration of the same social networks not only uses marketing moves to their advantage, but also allows its patrons to do, in fact, the same thing. This phenomenon is directly related to advertising in the "VC" groups.
VKontakte communities
Community "VC", roughly speaking, is agroups of people by interests. They are created for various reasons, including for the marketing promotion of their product (company, works of art, etc.). Small communities, targeting a small number of people, either remain in the same form or are closed without promotion. But gigantic groups, whose number of participants reaches one million, for their administrators are not only a hobby, but also a job, and a real means of earning.
VK Group as a means of earning money
Advertising in "VC" groups is only one of the typesmaking money on the community. The rest, such as applications and / or lidogeneratsiya, advertising targeted, offers, also have their advantages and disadvantages.
Recently, the advertisement "VKontakte"evolved along with the development of the most popular social network in the post-Soviet space. While the site "VC" was focused not on content, but on users, the promotion was frank spam in the form of links, not more. This species is still present, but is it worth saying that it is practically ineffective? The question appears: "Advertising in VKontakte groups is properly arranged?"
History of advertising in groups "VK"
The chronology of development stops in 2010.as on the introduction of microblogging "VKontakte" and "My News", and in 2011 - the reform of communities, as their new look, namely public pages (public posts) became available. Links were still the limit of advertising in the "VC" groups. It was a redirection to a certain community indirectly or directly.
2012 marks the emergence of reposts("Tell Friends / Subscribers") and feedback, which allowed a wider distribution of advertising, and a little later there were also opportunities to fix the records.
Why all this? Most of the "chips", introduced a certain number of years ago, are in use and still, offering some sort of no, but efficiency.
The year of the supposed end of the world in principle becamevery important in terms of advertising in the social network. There was a new opportunity to spread advertising in groups "VKontakte", - the exchange.
Advertising Exchange: Opportunities and Types
Early exchanges allowed to work with advertising indifferent social networks. They still exist. In 2013, the same "VC" also began to conquer this area, starting with the introduction of its own stock exchange. Of course, the VKontakte exchange works with advertising only this social network. But it allows you to not use any third-party services.
In addition, there are the following popular advertising exchanges:
- VKTarget;
- VKSerfing;
- SMO-Pult;
