Social media marketing
Using social media networks has become an essential part of business website marketing.
Sites such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube not only provide excellent search engine optimisation, but also add a social aspect to your business.
While advertising and traditional marketing methods remain formal, social networks provide an informal opportunity to connect with your customers.
Facebook is a social media success story. It is the most visited site on the internet after Google.com and while it remains a staple networking tool for individuals through its profile accounts, the facility to publish ‘pages’ which businesses can use to promote themselves has made it an essential marketing tool.
The micro-blogging site has become the buzzword in business marketing for 2010. With a message limit of only 140 charcaters, Twitter is being used by companies large and small to gather data from its customers, monitor live feedback and engage on a new level.
YouTube
The video sharing website allows you to upload videos from your PC, phone or even some cameras. Producing effective videos for business is now possible with modest tools. YouTube provides excellent search engine positioning with the right keywording and added effectiveness through moving images.
There are many other networks too, such as Linked In, Flickr, Digg, Delicious and we use them all depending on their relevance to your business.
