Australian Hockey League on everything

This entry was posted by Laura on Thursday, 11 February, 2010 at

This is mostly a follow up to Australian Hockey League on blogger, LiveJournal, and LiveJournal clones and Another problem team is problem: Tasmanian Tigers.  I finished looking at the other networks that I’ve been looking at so far: Bebo, Twitter, Facebook, and Yahoo!Groups.  Given the size of this league and some of the name issues (two teams sharing names with other, bigger teams), I wasn’t surprised that the size was so tiny on these networks.  There isn’t enough data to provide any sort of meaningful analysis so I’m just providing a table of the size of the communities on the aforementioned networks based on the methodology discussed in other posts.

The AHL has zero presence that I can find on Twitter, which is a bit surprising.  No one appears to even be reporting on them.  They also appear to not have a presence on Facebook.  Developing these two would probably help increase their overall visibility.

    Sounds like sensible advice.

    With Twitter and Facebook in particular, “If you build it, they will come”.

    I don't know if they'll exactly start following. The Perth Heat only have 33 followers on Twitter… but maybe. There are some third and fourth tier cricket teams who have bigger followings on Facebook and Yahoo!Groups. Bentleigh Cricket Club is an example of that. There are also two Yahoo!Groups dedicated to them. (Was poking through this category last night, looking for first class cricket team mailing lists.)
