Online communities have existed since the inception of the Internet. Before wall posts, tweets
and hash tags, there were chat rooms, discussion boards and instant messaging. Although the
buzzword du jour is “online community,” the actual concept precedes its designation as such.
According to http://www.webbizideas.com, “A common myth is that online communities are
useful only for dating and meeting new friends. However, it is now a well-established fact that
companies make use of online communities in order to make new contacts and expand their
business relationships.” The idea of building a community for your website has grown rapidly over
the last year and, just as with any other initiative, the growth of the program requires the specific
attention of an individual or a group (i.e. Social Media Manager, SEO Program Manager, etc.).
This How-To Guide discusses what an online community manager is, the importance of having a
community manager and the key qualifications that the candidate should possess.
