Once again, Cisco is proud to have been recognized by Bowen Craggs (in a collaborative project with the Financial Times) as the #1 corporate news site serving media…and #1 for serving customers.As I said last year when we also were recognized as #1 in both of these categories:
I’m obviously very happy that my colleagues on the News@Cisco team got the recognition for serving the media, however from a Cisco shareholder perspective I’m very pleased that we are #1 for serving customers.
The survey was conducted by Bowen Craggs, a corporate website advisory firm that benchmarks company websites.In the following video, Jeanette Gibson, Director of New Media, thanks Bowen Craggs and the FT for the recognition and talks about our philosophy of making the site a place to interact with Cisco through blogs, twitter, facebook and more.
Well done on a great website. As the Editor of Telstra’s blog/news site nowwearetalking.com.au it is great to see the trend towards “conversations’ and greater interaction with visitors, growing in the corporate world, through their websites. Keep it up and keep raising the bar; it inspires us all to do better. Well done again. Jeremy Mitchell
Congratulations Cisco and Jeanette – nice to know that your application of best practices as the Social Media Club and WOMMA advocates are helping you get this recognition.William
Yes, Chris Heuer is a great advocate with Social Media Club and Andy Sernovitz (@sernovitz on twitter) for The Blog Council has great advice for companies looking to leverage social media. As I’ve heard many folks say now…Twitter is the canary in the coal mine for a company’s reputation.”" So true!”
Congrats. I still point to News@Cisco to any and every company that asks for how a newsroom should look.The SMC reference is funny – um, you guys were doing this way before that was even started, and we worked on the project and I was interviewed by your team. I still think I had the funniest answers.
See you next week. Orange Flip (subliminal message for you).
