Honeycomb Framework
To help make sense of the complexity of Social Media, honeycomb framework of seven social media building blocks is presented: identity, conversations, sharing, presence, relationships, reputation, and groups.
Identity building block
Content that focuses on personal information and stories often relate to users at the identity level. Common CTAs that encourage users to “share their story” are often working on this functional block.
Conversation Building Block
Arguably, this is the most basic CTA of all social media: “Comment”, “Tweet”, “Email”, etc. Since social media is all about communication, most CTAs encourage conversation in one form or another.
Relationship Building Block
Encouraging users to form bonds with each other at the individual level has been a corner stone of several virtual communities. In the beginning at least, this was the very idea of Facebook's purpose. “Invite a friend” CTAs are very typical for this functional block.
Group Building Block
The difference between this functional block and the relationship block is the scale of the user connecting with other users. CTAs that invite users to join a larger community (i. e. a Facebook page) take the relationship building to a whole different level.
Sharing Building Block
Much like the conversations block, this functional block is also primary function of social media. Most CTAs in this block will even use the word “share” to promote the exchange and flow of digital content.
Presence Building Block
The typical call for a status update isn’t as common as other forms of CTAs, but can be highly effective for physical locations and virtual communities. This functional block is often enhanced with “check in” types of CTAs.
Reputation Building Block
Have you ever wondered why so many Facebook games have you share your score with your friends? It’s because sharing results, scores, or level accomplishments is a great CTA for enhancing the reputation building aspect of social media.
Conclusion By analyzing the Social Media Honeycomb’s seven building blocks firms can monitor and understand how social media activities vary in terms of their function and impact, so as to develop a congruent social media strategy based on the appropriate balance of building blocks for their community
