The Soci­ety for New Com­mu­ni­ca­tions Research Best Prac­tices com­mit­tee has spent a year research­ing cor­po­rate social media poli­cies. The project included gath­er­ing case stud­ies on com­pa­nies’ blog­ging pol­icy devel­op­ment and imple­men­ta­tion for com­pa­nies man­ag­ing inter­nal and exter­nal cor­po­rate blogs and other forms of social media. From this research, the com­mit­tee devel­oped a set of SNCR-endorsed best prac­tices. We now present these 27 best prac­tices and poli­cies for devel­op­ing and imple­ment­ing cor­po­rate blog­ging poli­cies and guidelines.
