Social media for personal use and social media for your business are two
different worlds. If you are used to using these sites for your own personal
satisfaction then you are ahead of the game in understanding, but you will still
need the advice of this article to show you how you can best market your
business through them.
Learn to utilize YouTube. You can post videos related to your business on
this site. This allows you to create a greater personalization with your
customers as they hear your voice and see your face. If you have a Twitter
account, you can send links to your new content, increasing your YouTube
traffic.
Try adding pictures to your social media site. People get a better
understanding of a product when they can literally see it. And, when people
understand your product, they are more likely to purchase it. You do not need to
have too many pictures, just a few should do the job.
Sign up for Twitter. Get as many followers as you can by signing up for
blogging sites like Tweepi.com. Using a site like this makes it easier for
people to find you on Twitter. Tweet regularly about other bloggers. You should
also automate your tweets so they aren't forgotten about by your followers.
Find bloggers within your niche, and leave comments on their blogs. The great
thing about comments is that you can usually leave a link with the comment,
giving readers of that blog a way to find your site or blog. While sticking with
blogs with bigger followings is more likely to generate more traffic for you,
visitors from smaller blogs can add up as well.
Utilize RSS feeds. These all people to subscribe to your feed and have the
posts go into their Google Reader account once your feeds are published. This
makes your content accessible in an easy-to-access way for your customers. Make
the button to subscribe easy to identify, so the whole process takes no effort
on the part of those visiting your site.
Try using linking applications on Twitter to post to your other social media
profiles at the same time. These linking applications are a huge time saver.
When you post a message on Twitter, it will automatically post the same message
on your Facebook, YouTube, and Google+ profiles, so you don't have to sign into
all of them to post the same content.
Try to map out your objectives and goals for participation when starting a
social media marketing campaign. Make them available throughout the company so
that everyone within the organization is on the same page. Results from social
media marketing will be more productive and better focused when all activities
are aligned and working towards the same goals.
As you can see, there is a lot of information regarding how to set up your
business on social media sites. Hopefully the questions you had were all
answered here. If not, then use this as a starting point to research many other
ways in which you can use these platforms to increase your business.
