Beyond Clicks to AI Algorithmic Engagement in Digital Platforms: (A Case Study of SMM Platforms): So

Click-through rates and conversions no longer capture how social media marketing creates value. Drawing on in-depth case studies of three major social media platforms, this book introduces the Beyond-Click Value Creation Framework: four mechanisms through which AI technology turns social media marketing into intelligence-led value creation. From algorithmic credibility to social interest clusters and post-cookie measurement, it also reveals how platforms profit beyond the click, and what that means for marketers, platform managers, and policymakers shaping the future of social media marketing.
