A new feature is available in Silverbakk. We call it Priority Blogs. If you have a list of important bloggers that you want to track, then this feature will be your best friend. Whenever an A-blogger (from your priority blog list) write about your product or brand, Silverbakk will make it easy for you to measure, find, do reports and display these influential and important posts.
Create a list of bloggers
In the priority blogs section (found in My Account) you can now add as many lists with bloggers as you need (just paste the list in the box, Silverbakk will handle the rest). After you have created a list, Silverbakk will verify that we monitor the blogs in the list. If any blog is not already present in Silverbakk, it will be added automatically.
Since these lists might be different for each project you can add each list to one, a few or all projects. When a post from one of your priority bloggers have been writing about your keywords it will be shown in your result with the name of the list that the blogger is a part of (displayed in the same way as flags).
Not only blogs
The primary demand have traditionally been to track so called A-bloggers or influential bloggers, but that has changed, so it does not necessarily need to be a blog that should be in the primary blogs-list. It could be a Facebook page or regular site. You can add any source to the priority blog-list.
Display only the results from a list
This is the first release of this feature therefore some things are not perfect yet. One of the things we are still working on is how to easily display only the content from a list and how to create reports based on lists. Now this is fully possible today, but maybe not fully logical in the interface, so to achieve this do the following:
- On the project that you want to see how much a list has written about.
- Go to the search tab in the panel.
- Fill in the criteria (date, keyword etc)
- The lists connected to the project are visible in the “Search flagged posts” menu.
- Choose your list and click “Search”
- Done! A full view of content created by the list is now visible.
Create a report of content by a list of bloggers
In the same fashion as with displaying content from a list, the lists are present in the “flag” section when creating a report. Just find your list in the “Post listings” dropdown in the executive report section and then generate the report.
We wanted to give you this now, not later…so…
….we are working on making these steps much more friction free, but wanted to make this available as soon as it was stable and then continue to make it better and better. An upgrade to the dashboard is on the way and to simplify the above is included n the new dashboard.
We are confident that the Priority Blogs feature will make your work with A-bloggers and influencers much more efficient.
