encouraging but towards the end of December there was a slight upward trend again. ASMS Posts
were shared a total of 222 times during this quarter.
6. Number of Total Impressions on the Community
The week of the event gave the page the maximum footfall and visibility thus the highest number of
impressions were from that week. In all, during this three month period, 6,20,600 impressions
were made.
7. Number of Unique Users who saw and visited the content on the Community
With greater proliferation of content through likes and shares the visibility of the page shows an
upward trend. This is re鍖ected in the number of unique users arriving on the community. Maximum

unique users during this period were present during the week of 17th October to 23rd October. A
total of 4,550 unique users visited the page in this quarter.
Inferences:
The week of 17th October to 23rd October saw the highest footfall and interactions on the page.
This was the last leg of the promotional campaign for the event and the days of the event itself.
However post the event there was a sharp drop off in the numbers across the board, only for a
minor resurgence towards the end of December. I think there was a two-fold reason for the same;
1. Lack of Post-Event Preparedness for Content Dissipation: While there was a content
strategy in place for coverage from the event to be presented in an organised fashion in the
days after, the implementation left a lot to be desired. Primarily because of the lack of a
proper inventory creation and content demarkation.
2. Lack of variety in Content: While the focus remained on the summit, the momentum
could be sustained, however post the event, without an extensive coverage or campaign,
interest amongst users started to wane. With no alternate content to keep regular posts
engaging and relevant, numbers started to dip quickly. A drop in interaction also lessens the
chances of page posts showing up on the timeline of fans thus lowering chances of wider
content reach.
2. Twitter
1. Number of Followers:
The Twitter handle for ASMS2014 was launched on the 10th of September and by the end of the
month had 45 followers. Across the next three months the number 鍖nally reached 327. Maximum
number of followers were acquired during the week of 17th October to the 23rd of the month, the
number being 180.

The highest number of followers were again acquired during the month of October, 235 followers,
72% of the total number of followers during the whole month with December being the least with
only 18 followers (6% of the total amount).
2. Number of Messages Sent:
Maximum number of messages were sent during the week of the event, 308 in total, which was
also the highest for the three months. However the second last week of December was also highly
productive with 214 messages sent out via the handle.

Maximum number of mentions were received during the month of October since that was the
month of the event, however since then theres been a sharp decline in the number of mentions,
with December just having
5 mentions.
4. Number of Retweets:
Usually Mentions and Retweets mirror each other on the social media metric scale, both a simple
indicator of the popularity of the twitter handle. As seen previously in the number of mentions, the
interaction with the handle peaked during the week of 17th October to 23rd October, the same
goes for the Retweets on the ASMS handle. The highest number of retweets received in the three
month period was 265 during the week of the summit.

Inferences:
Much like for Facebook, the interactions spiked before and during the Social Media Summit,
however they fell very sharply in the weeks after. A lack of a clear strategy on how to follow up the
post event coverage combined with no variety in content resulted in less visibility than desired. Also
what could have been more effective is a means to utilise hashtags better and tap into trending
topics to create more visible and relevant content while keeping the essence of the Social Media
Summit as a means of education and training for social media in Afghanistan alive.
