Dark Social as a marketing opportunity is one of the most exciting and potentially lucrative opportunities available to marketers today and can be defined as “social sharing that occurs in private digital communication tools such as email and instant messaging”. 
It represents three times the social sharing activity of Facebook alone, according to Post data generated by users who share Web content using the RadiumOne Post sharing widgets and short URL software.
Advertisers and publishers are now realizing the value it represents in understanding real-time consumer interest and intent. It’s a large and accurate data source that, once harnessed, can be used to convert valuable potential new customers for advertisers and new audiences for publishers.
Data and delivery should never be separated. It takes an integrated platform that combines the power of data collection, data management and real-time media delivery to make social insights actionable.
RadiumOne’s integrated platform manages data generated by a wide variety of sources including the Po.st Sharing Widgets and Po.st Link Shortener.
It uses a proprietary sharing algorithms, ShareGraph™, to amplify social data. Activation happens with the integrated platform when data informs targeting and bidding in real time to place media across all channels and devices.
