If you missed the social media news last week, Twitter launchedVine; a standalone IOS app allowing users to share 6-second video clips in an Instagram-esque way. The Vine iPhone app has rocketed up to the 14th most downloaded free app; so many brands have begun to take notice. With all the buzz, I decided to take a look at Vine’s engagement numbers over the weekend to see how many public tweets contained a Vine link, if use increased since launch and to determine what the major conversation themes were.
In order to pull all of the public tweets I searched for the term “vine.co” using the Cision Social Media Dashboard. This pulled all the tweets that contained the unique URL associated with a Vine video. While this won’t give us every Vine video that was produced (not all content is shared publicly or on Twitter), it can be a nice indicator on how often and what content was shared.
As of this morning over 100,000 tweets were sent containing a Vine URL since the January 23rd launch, when Twitter’s Dick Costello sent out a tweet of steak tartar. As you can see from the graphic below the total amount of tweets containing a Vine link increased fairly drastically throughout the weekend with the coverage spiking on Saturday, Jan. 26 at noon, with over 11,000 tweets sent!...

Learn some best practices emerging around Twitter's Vine so you can figure out what works, and what doesn't, for marketing. Vine.
It’s the latest social media feature available on Twitter. Released on January 24, companies have already started to cozy up to the new, six second video feature as part of their social media content strategy. With it being so new, however, it may be difficult to tell what the best practices are. I mean, what's working? What's not? Any guidance here, people?!
Well, the good news is, a veritable Vine flop isn't going to do your brand a ton of harm -- unless you're like, incredibly offensive or something. But shooting videos can seriously stress marketers out sometimes (Who has the equipment? How do I turn this thing on? Should I write a script? Does it look blurry?). So, a little guidance is what we're here to give. Because while we love to encourage experimentation in your marketing, we hate to see you waste your time.
Here's what some brands have been doing that people seem to love, and some of the things that really are best to avoid when using Vine. Take a look, and share your own Vine learnings in the comments so we can all figure this thing out together....
