share on

Digital has become a core of every agency function today. While every other hot shop starting up claims to know the world of digital, only very few know how to truly monitor and navigate this volatile space. And even if they successfully understand how to market their clients, only a few ever really know how to truly market themselves.According to a recent study by social media monitoring company Digimind, social media agency We Are Social came out on top as the leading digital agency on social media in Singapore. We Are Social had the largest community, thanks to their 122.81K followers across Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.The survey looked at communities (subscribers, fans, and followers); interactions (likes, retweets and comments); and publications (posts, tweets, videos, etc.).To establish this top 50 list, digimind monitored 102 digital agencies (60 global and 42 Singapore based) from 24 July to 24 August 2015 its Digimind Social Analytics tool. The list was then narrowed down to the best performing agencies according to the above mentioned metrics.The study also found that the agency also acquired most of their community through Facebook and Twitter.Here are the top 50 other leaders:[gallery link="file" ids="110640,110639,110638,110637,110636"] Facebook and Twitter emerged as the most popular social networks for digital agencies in Singapore.
