Social Search Growth, Speaking at OMMA Hollywood
Tomorrow I will be moderating a panel on Social Search at OMMA Hollywood. David Gilby from ChaCha and Cameron Olthius from ACS will be speaking about advertising and optimization strategies within social media. As background, here are some US traffic statistics on the key social media sites.
The growth rates for these sites are quite impressive over the last six months - when comparing traffic in August 2006 to February 2007, Digg was up 92%, Technorati up 88%, del.icio.us up 130%, and Google Blog Search up 316% (largely due to placement on Google News, as I wrote here). Since late January, Technorati has been keeping ahead of Google Blog Search.

I'll be sharing some more details on where these sites are getting their traffic, so stop by the session if you are at OMMA tomorrow.
