Added Missing @MoonandLola Slide & Video Notes To Ecommerce ?s @HaikuDeck

Added Missing @MoonandLola Slide & Video Notes To Ecommerce ?s @HaikuDeck | Must Design | Scoop.it

Asking the right questions in the right way is key to online marketing success. How SMBs can compete with Amazon isn't as important as what is their why and how are they learning from Amazon's web marketing power.

Running into the web team from http://www.MoonandLola.com today after meeting them last week helped us realize we needed to add slides to our presentation. We HATE IT when that happens (lol).

Last week we spoke with about 40 Small to Medium Sized Businesses (SMBs) in a conference sponsored by FedEx and seeing the team at the Digital Summit today jogged our thinking. We forgot to discuss the importance of PLATFORM thinking.

We all know winning platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and my favorite Scoop.it. Platforms are winning because they play the "new SEO" game beautifully. We added Video Notes on YouTube to explain all of this (https://youtu.be/tSHeIxtrs4g ).

The Art & Science of Social Login Design

The Art & Science of Social Login Design | Must Design | Scoop.it
Social login, also known as social sign-in, provides users with one single login using an account they already have – their social network account.
Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

The NEW Web Design
Reading a new Social Media Examiner report (Scooped here http://sco.lt/5jE7qj ) social login is looming LARGE and IN CHARGE especially thanks to "password fatigue" and big F success as a universal trust mark.

Designing social lgoin can be tricking. When the Atlantic BT team created social login for http://www.curecancerstarter.org

it became clear to me (as client) they were in over their heads. Here are some examples of the art and science of design social login in ways that blend, support and intrigue.

Why is social login so important? The next web is going to be more distributed and less go to a website and consume content. Facebook's dream of becoming infrastructure seems to be coming true, so we need to understand how to design websites with social signin and the social reach it provides.

Good note @wayne_b. I'm sure there are many "more technical" who will use password helper apps. I also see your point about, for a certain segment, Facebook = distrust (me included), but there is a big broad breadbasket of users who will use FB because they trust it and social signon because its easy. That being the case, I will always include a well thought out social signin option on the big stuff we create at @CrowdFunde and Scenttrail Marketing. Marty
