Of Twitter and Inet Mktg Whales

[Steven W Johnson]

If a "Twitter Whale" is considered to be one with at least 10,000 followers, then what is an Internet Marketing Whale? The same but in Double-Opt-In subscribers?

What about the size of one's affiliate base? Or the number of pages "in service" on the net (that would likely have to be in the hundreds of thousands or millions for whale status I bet) hehe

What is a Facebook Whale? One who can no longer accept new friend requests? (currently 5,000, I believe) ?? or have they lifted that one now? I've heard both stories.

And how many videos does a marketer need (or how many subscribers or friends) to become a YouTube Whale? or maybe channel views is a better measure of success? Of course, it's tough to gauge what one of these "whales" actually DOES with their presence on any of these SMM sites - the old concept of "less with more" often applies here as well - if you have a small, tight-knit following that is drinking in your koolaid like it was the only beverage on Earth, well, that might be better than some arbitrary "whale ranking number"
