Social listening refers to the tracking and analyzing of online conversations and trends happening around a given topic, brand, or industry as a whole. The scope of your social listening objective is defined by smart data generated from specific words, phrases, or long-stretching queries.
By having an understanding of what people talk about across social media and the web, you can evaluate brand perceptions and glean insights first hand from a wide range of sources, ensuring that you do not miss out on underlying opportunities and threats to your brand health.
