In the last post we talked about the rise of micro-moments. But what about macro-moments?
According to this great response to micro-moments and our own interpretations, the three most important types of macro-moments are:
In essence, micro-moments happen on the go and with intent, while macro-moments are more tribal or community-based. They're deep-dive media experiences that impact individuals in ways micro-moments can’t.
Publishers should remember that preferences and loyalty are shaped by both micro and macro moments. The brands that do the best job of addressing our needs in each moment will gain the greater share of our attention, and they'll be the publishers we start with next time. They will, in short, win.
Where to begin?
Determining the right macro moment to target a user is no easy feat, but here are some Google tools that can help you discover what your audience is looking for, set your strategy and start taking action.
And as always, some of your best insights can come from good old-fashioned methods like talking to and engaging with your audience.
Once you have the insights, it's time for action. We'll cover that in our next post.

According to this great response to micro-moments and our own interpretations, the three most important types of macro-moments are:
- Affinity Moments, when fans act in unison in support of their favorite team or musician.
- Buddy Moments, when friends connect and bond everything they see, hear or read -- whether that's a live concert or a funny cat video on YouTube.
- Deep Knowledge Moments, when someone wants to learn deeply about a topic (maybe political issues or financial news) so they can share that knowledge later.
