@TaylorMirf @MeghanWesley @SPJDigital Yes, they should care. Value engagement: Time spent, shares, likes, comments. Set up audience: Not 1 and done. Do 3 stories. #SPJDigiChat

We could chat about this all night because it's digital and we love it, but we value our experts' time. That concludes our #SPJDigiChat!

@SPJDigital A6. 3/3 Find your people. Who are the communities of interest around the story? Reach out to them. Be authentic and real #SPJDigiChat

@mitrakalita @SPJDigital Perfect answer. I think about what I'd want to know as reader... it's not bait, but a tease to story. #SPJDigiChat

@SPJDigital A6. Entry points to story: Headline, photo, lead, share line. Why would you share this? Does it surprise/redeem/inspire/emote? #SPJDigiChat

@mitrakalita @MeghanWesley @spjdigital How much should journalists focus on their own metrics? What matters the most? #spjdigichat

[Jessica Noll @JNJournalist]

@TaylorMirf @mitrakalita @MeghanWesley @SPJDigital I think it's pretty important to know your own audience. Plus l, I'm competitive. #SPJDigiChat
