In a world of rising digital content consumption where traditional media resources are losing their audience daily; brands and companies are increasing their digital marketing budgets. Nonetheless, reaching their target audience is tricky, nowadays. Recent research shows that 47% of overall mobile and desktop internet users are now using ad-blocking software. This number has almost doubled in comparison to the previous year. Furthermore, 36% of traffic generated by Pay-per-click (PPC) campaigns are suspected to be fraudulent or non-human. Hence, brands are seeking new ways of advertising their products and services, discovering the power and realizing the importance of Influencer Marketing.

HOW IT WORKS?

For maintaining commercial relationships between participants, SocialMedia.Market will use Blockchain technology to simplify integration, reduce fraud and costs for all market participants. Token value is going to be upheld not only by transaction means within platform services, but also supported with the ability to participate in the decentralized dispute solution system gaining additional earnings for token holders.
SOCIALMEDIA.MARKET’S MAIN FEATURES AND BENEFITS
SocialMedia.Market will provide the following features to all platform users:
SECURE TRANSACTIONS
Delays or non-payments are problems typically associated with an Influencer’s platform. The advertisers and influencers have very little control over payments. In many cases, after project submission, the advertiser doesn’t receive the high-quality content agreed upon from an influencer or the influencer does not get paid. Our Ethereum based platform uses an escrow payment system which holds the contract fees until the set obligations are met. On project completion, the funds are released, securing the interests of both parties involved.
FAIR DECENTRALISED DISPUTE SOLUTION SYSTEM
Content created by Influencers is mostly perceived subjectively. This may cause disputes and dissatisfaction of parties with achieved results. For the most part, modern platforms do not solve such disputes between parties. Moreover, platforms with such mechanics typically charge an additional fee for arbitration and often favor the paying side. Our service has several preventive measures that will allow parties to resolve disputes on their own in most cases, as well as an arbitration system that will resolve disputes between participants with the help of independent platform experts.
OWNERSHIP VALIDATION
One of the major problems contributing to most of the unforeseen costs is fraud, when a fraudster impersonates an Influencer by hacking into his accounts. These situations harm both parties, Advertiser and Influencer. SocialMedia.Market applies special procedures providing a transparent and reliable marketplace. Influencers are verified and authorized to ensure they are really who they claim to be. Additionally, two factor authentication ensures protection and account ownership within the platform. socialmedia.market 19

SocialMedia.Market’s tools provided to brands are created with the latest SMO trends and allow members to create campaigns which comply with basic optimization requirements.
PROBLEM
HIGH QUANTITY OF FRAUD
The ability to check the credibility of the contractor conditions online relationships.
UNCERTAIN PRICING
Many intermediaries and risks make pricing in the market chaotic and often inadequate, while not providing any guarantees of efficiency.
PAYMENT COMPLEXITY
To maintain campaigns both advertisers and influencers need to operate multiple payment methods to simplify transactions and optimize costs.
LOW ACCESSIBILITY
A high threshold for small and medium-sized business entry, associated with risks (high unpredictable costs)
DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN RELATIONSHIPS
Lack of standards, average age of influencers and only direct online communication makes communications difficult to maintain for all parties.
TIME CONSUMING AND LIMITED CAMPAIGN DIVERSITY
As demonstrated, the process of managing Influencer Marketing programs is time consuming when handled in- house, making it a complex task to work with a large network of Influencers. Yet, Influencers with a smaller quantity of subscribers show higher engagement rates than top influencers. socialmedia.
COMPLEXITY IN SELECTION OF INFLUENCERS AND ROI ANALYSIS
In a survey conducted by Tomoson, more than half of the participants reported better quality leads as a result of Influencer Marketing. Therefore, the selection of relevant bloggers is one of the most difficult tasks for marketing managers.
DECENTRALIZED DISPUTE SOLUTION
The evaluation of the created content is largely subjective. Consequently, this subjectivity can cause disputes and dissatisfaction concerning the result. On SocialMedia.Market there are several preventive measures that allow parties, to resolve disputes on their own, in most cases. In all other cases, parties can access a decentralized Dispute Solution system to resolve issues in cooperation between participants. Depending on the reasons of dispute, the process may be initiated by either the Advertiser or Influencer. A list of contracts under dispute is available for platform experts to review, with controversial details being disclosed during the settlement process.

CONCEPT OF BUILDING AN APPLICATION
-Micro service architecture, relevant technologies according to specific needs, use of contemporary frameworks and patterns only
-Secure transactions with the help of Blockchain and Smart contracts
-Service dockerizing, unique isolated environment for each service, reliable identical environment for each version of the product
-Orchestration of containers (kubernetes), seamless and separate service deployment, uptime 100%
-Two-protocol communication between services — TCP/HTTP, isolated data transferring inside overlay net, JWT authorization between services during communication
-Application is deployed in the Cloud, automatic scaling of resources depending on the load, DDoS attack protection
-Application development using Agile (Scrum) methodology, Continuous integration, Continuous Deployment, code writing standards, multilayer testing of releases (including bug testing) during the development, distribution and deployment of services.
ARCHITECTURE
The application is thought to be built, based on micro-service architecture. Briefly, micro-service architectural style is an approach in which a single application is built as a set of small services, each of which works on a personal process and communicates with others using lightweight mechanisms — HTTP generally. These services are built around a business’ needs and deployed independently, using a totally automated environment. There is an absolute minimum of centralized operation of these services. The services on their own can be written in different languages and can use different technologies of storing data.
DOCKERIZING
Dockerizing and isolating of components are not new concepts in the world of calculation. Some operation systems like Unix have been using “mature” container technologies for more than 10 years. Docker, which appeared a bit later, has positioned itself as an instrument for simplification of the work aimed at creating and controlling containers. Docker did not introduce a lot of new ideas, but made containers available for an average developer and system administrator by the simplification of processes and interface standardization.
-Some of most attracting advantages of dockerizing are:
-Abstraction of host system from containerised applications
-Scaling simplicity
-Simplicity of control over dependencies and versions of applications
-Very easy, isolated runtime environment
-Shared layers Ability to arrange and predictability
APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT
Application development is done using Agile. In search of the best Agile practices, we have Scrum framework.
Scrum — is a framework, which is meant for development and support of complicated products. The framework is based on the empiric method and is meant for development of high-value products in muddy environments.
