Enables one-to-one marketing
The members of an online community have clearly stated their interest areas by joining the community. When communicating with the members, you already know what kind of services and products they might be interested in. A community truly enables one-to-one marketing and pin-pointed communication. When the recipient receives information that is relevant to them, then the response rates also go up.
The community owner also has an unprecedented opportunity to develop new products and services based on the content and discussions in the online community. EPiServer Community has functions available for analyzing the content in the community, which makes this process smooth and straightforward.
Moderate all content
To ensure that the content on the community is in accordance with the guidelines for acceptable content there are efficient tools to easily correct or erase unwanted content. EPiServer Community gives you access to all content in the community and it also tracks which user added the content and when. Furthermore, all published content is connected with the public IP address from where it was uploaded.
