My initial thought on the SEMrush project was that there is a lot I did not know about tracking analytics. I was amazed by the amount of sets for each project. At first, I was overwhelmed and did not know where to begin. I continued to review the components that I found on the dashboard. When I began my first project, I chose to create a project under my blog website. SEMrush allows their members to learn about the details of their on/off page features to find out what has been successful and what features need improvement.  I input my blog website domain in as a new project.

During the COVID-19 pandemic many businesses new and old have learned the impact of social media to be a main outlet to reach consumers. “ Although 97% of Fortune 500 corporations are on LinkedIn, 84% are on Facebook, and 86% are on Twitter, many brands entered the social media front lines without a clear strategy.” ( Quesenberry 2018) In attempting to launch a company platform virtually, how does one know what platform would be most effective?  The approach to determining the right strategy for a company to participate in social media will vary.
