Recent
rumors about falling shares of Facebook in the stock market, at last break the
silence of Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of the company. Zuckerberg is being challenged
by falling shares due to ineffective mobile Facebook app strategy. The official
announcements from Facebook management have shown that they are thinking hard
about how to device a successful mobile strategy to capture the developing
plate of mobile Facebook.
The
Facebook applications for smart devices are quite slow and difficult to
operate. This has raised a huge question in front of the developers and
management team of Facebook. Releasing new application for smart devices is
like to give whole new experience to the users. Thus, Facebook has to do
something unusual to meet the expectations of the users.
Marketing
experts, social media personnel, Facebook critics and mobile industry veterans
all are waiting to see the next step of Facebook. They are anxiously waiting to
know whether Facebook management will be able to overhaul mobile platform or
not. One of the marketing specialists, Robert J. Payne has figured out that Facebook
is not only social media site which is challenged by this problem. He also
revealed that no one has yet device the mobile advertising strategy perfectly.
But, as Facebook is quite demanding and too much large, thus they are facing
more hardness with the problem.
Facebook
have announced the developer tool kit for connecting the apps between the Apple
iOS system and the Facebook. This tool kit is going to establish integration
across iPhone and Facebook and give effective Facebook mobile app. The initial
reaction of the developers by listening about the developer tool kit was quite
positive. It means sooner Facebook will resolve the mobile Facebook app issue.
The
chief innovation officer and co-founder of Vibes mobile marketing company
Campbell, beliefs that the effective mobile strategy can be devised by
addressing the three key elements. These are location, time and interaction.
Being marketing experts, he has said that the Facebook must start working on
devising their mobile strategy by asking different questions about user’s
experience. They must ask themselves that what they can do in enhancing the
experience. He further added that of course Facebook is a social media site
where users want more social interaction. Thus, Facebook must think about
providing social interaction apps without disturbing the privacy of the other
users.
Campbell
beliefs; that it is not necessary for Facebook to do something noticeable and
major for giving an exceptional experience to the users. He added that Facebook can arrange their
newsfeed and show updates from the users to the concern parties. Like for
instance; if someone has posted that he or she is planning to go on shopping, Facebook
can employ the location based feature. They can instantly display the ads of
shopping malls and bazaars in their pages and alerts. These areas must also be
recommended by the friends.
This
was the suggestion given by expert. He said that Facebook can bring dozen of
more changes to revamp the user’s experience. He added that Facebook must think
to initiate the Facebook app development from scratch. They should not rely on
repacking the same web experience in the phones.
In
the nutshell, Facebook app for mobile must not give an online site view. It
must works for educating the users about latest happening in their social
networks and must respond to their updated status. This would mean to develop
the Facebook mobile app by keeping in mind the importance of time, interaction
and location. They should come up with something interactive rather than just
news feeding.
