Tracking FB views
-
This is somewhat off-topic, but this seems like a good place to ask.
Has anyone used a script/code/3rd party service that allows you to track who has viewed your profile?
-
Such a script/app is against the facebook terms of service. At https://www.facebook.com/help/210896588933875/ FB states:
Can I know who’s looking at my timeline or how often it’s being viewed?
No, Facebook doesn't let you track who views your timeline or your posts (ex: your photos). Third party apps also can't provide this functionality.
If you come across an app that claims to offer this ability, please report the app.

I am talking about a personal Facebook page. Is there a way to know who has viewed your profile? Any analytics available for persona FB pages?
I know FB does not allow Javascript or GA tracking, but I have read there are ways around it.
Thanks for the help.

PS if you are asking about SEOmoz You didn't specify so I don't believe that is something that they will allow however you are welcome to ask the staff e-mail you the analytics reports on your profile. I doubt don't share that but they might. Once not under view a week or month again you can make any link trackable so where it's accessed matters
your affiliate code would be something that gives your information
-
you can of course mix that with http://sendible.com/ to make a great platform.
If you're asking if you can tell if somebody has looked at your twitter profile I don't believe so that's proprietary to twitter. If you are asking about Facebook no I'm going to say again I don't believe so unless they click a link or do something else or you make the link trackable to access it which you can do with the 1st software I gave you.
You will also not be happy with Google plus as they will not tell you in addition I believe only LinkedIn is the one that spills beans.
However if you have awe.sm link for your twitter profile on your site you will know exactly how many times it's been pushed.
Hope I have helped,
Tom

Absolutely my favorite social media tracking tool and the best as far as making domains that are Twitter friendly shareable and your own.
http://Totally.awe.sm is the website if you want to purchase a domain that is 3 or 4 letters and matches your brand I would suggest domainr.com as it will find the domain you're looking for.

Namecheap is currently having a sale on .PW I saw this 3 days ago so please don't hold me accountable if it's not still for sale however it was only $3 a domain. Regardless SEOMoz pro perks allows us to purchase domains for $5 from name cheap you can find that at the bottom of the page.
Totally.awe.sm integrates with kiss metrics, mix panel, and of course Google analytics you will see all know all and be like Yoda to on twitter.
I hope I have been of help,
Thomas

Blog posts to G+ and FB?
Hi, I was wondering if we should be taking our blog posts and also putting them on social sites as well such as G+ and FB? If so, does content need to change to avoid a duplicate issue and if so is there a "rule" of sorts in terms of how much to change the content up? I was just wondering since we are already taking the time to put together these "stories" on our blog if our other channels would benefit as well?

Social Media Tracking
We currently use Sharing from JetPack to offer people the ability to share our blogs on Twitter, Facebook, and so on. Unfortunately the Site Stats provided are not very thorough and not able to be tracked in Google Analytics. Does anyone have a suggestion on which program is best to use for social media tracking? We would prefer to use one program to gather and show all of the statistics.

Problems with Google Analytics social tracking
Hi folks, Any GA experts out there available to help with a social tracking problem we've got? In short a client is using a ShareThis plugin, but the data we're seeing in GA doesn't correlate at all with the share counts showing on the plugin. Huge discrepancies in fact. Could do with someone taking a look at the page and seeing what part of the tracking code we need to update/fix. We'll make it worth your while. Please PM me if you can help. Thanks! Matt.

Addthis widget tracking success
Hi All, How do I know if people are using an addthis widget setup on product pages. The widget seems to be in an annoying location for me personally and I want to move it or replace it with just a few social media buttons. How do I track its effectiveness? Would you use Addthis widget or manual buttons on ecommerce? Thanks in advance!
