Social media monitoring is the practice of gathering and overseeing public activity on social media. Monitoring tools are designed to aggregate publicly available data from multiple networks, and display it in a format that is digestible by the end user.

Social media monitoring tools pull information from a range of social networks as well as some traditional media outlets. These tools do not have access to private data.
