Content is Just as Important on Social Media Profiles as it is on Blogs

Jul 11, 2008 in Internet Marketing, Social Media Marketing

It’s Friday, July 11th. and the weekend is upon us. Because I’m in the midst of a Social Media Marketing campaign to promote the launch of “Social Traffic Explosion” my focus for the past couple of weeks has been on the new Web 2.0 or the Social Media Market, as you may have noticed.

Today I want to continue down that road by examining how Internet Marketers can establish themselves within the Social Media network in order to target an audience for their products or services. So I thought about what would be the most important part of getting established within a Social Media network.

I realized that as with any website or Blog Content is the most important attraction on any Social Media profile page. With this in mind let’s move on to today’s article. I hope you enjoy it and have a great weekend!

With Social Media being the new phenomenon online today it would be ludicrous for any Internet Marketer to ignore it when it comes to formulating a strategy for an Internet Marketing campaign.

As with most marketing promotions your success or failure is usually determined by your approach. The most important part of a successful socialization plan when it comes to MySpace and Facebook, for example, is the content on your profile page.

Content drives traffic which drives sales when it comes to your Blog as well as your Social Media profile page. The richer and more varied the content the more people it will attract and the faster word will spread about your page and what it has to offer.

Try to make it entertaining in terms of what’s available for visitors to interact with as well as by adding a touch of humor because everyone likes to laugh. For interactivity you could have your favorite music highlighted for them to click on and sample. You could add a music video or two as well as some comedy clips or maybe have a joke of the day feature.

One important factor not to ignore is your own personal story. The objective of these sites after all is to meet and get to know new people. And most everyone likes reading or hearing about someone else’s life experience.

This doesn’t mean you have to reveal all of the sordid details but try to convey your likes and dislikes in your own style. Don’t try to be someone you’re not. People want to get to know the real you.

Also try to make your profile informative. Everyone has an expertise in some area, so share this knowledge with your guests who view your story and before you know it you’ll have more online friends than you know what to do with.

If you keep giving people what they want they’ll keep coming back for more and the best way to do this is to write about what you know and are comfortable with.

Pictures are also a great way to attract visitors. You can demonstrate some of your interests through photographs of some of your favorite activities. Pictures also add a more personal element to the page giving the viewer a better chance to get to know you and appreciate what you do.

If you’re an avid reader, for example, you could possibly start a book of the month feature where you discuss or critique a particular book you may be reading. You could ask visitors who are also readers to leave comments and maybe start a book of the month club.

With any relationship, be it online or in your day-to-day life, the important thing is to maintain contact. On any of these Social Media websites this means visiting on a regular basis to let people know what’s happening in your life. It also means updating your Profile page on a regular basis.

Any Internet Marketer who can follow these simple steps should enjoy great success in the new Web 2.0 or Social Media market not only professionally but also personally. And always remember the old adage “Content is King.”

So many people have been saying for months now that using the social marketing sites like MySpace, Facebook and the others is a great way to get traffic.

But there’s been a problem and that’s been no one has ever showed you how to do actually do it.

Not only that but a lot of these social sites don’t like you posting your website links and affiliate links all over the place so you can sometimes end up getting blocked or just not getting any traffic.

Well I found myself in the same position - I knew a little bit about social marketing, enough to be dangerous. But the problem was that although I was spending plenty of hours on these websites I just wasn’t getting any traffic or sales.

That’s when I started to look around and realized that wouldn’t it be great if there was a way you could watch how to properly get set up with the social sites in such a way that you were guaranteed to get lots of traffic?

You know how important traffic is to the life of your website?

Of course you do.

So how about I share with you some of the best ways to get traffic coming into your site using those “social marketing” sites that everyone’s talking about?

WHAT IS SOCIAL MARKETING?

People call it social marketing, web 2.0 or new age marketing but the fact of the matter is - you need to be using the social marketing websites to your advantage because there’s tons of free traffic to be had from them.

The big names like MySpace, Facebook and the rest are not only dominating news stories now and people’s minds they are starting to play a really big part in driving traffic to marketer’s pages online. The problem though is this …

… social sites don’t like marketers! It’s true! So you have to be careful when you are using them that you don’t get banned. The key is to adopt this simple “4 H’s” approach;

Humor
Honesty
Have fun
Help people

As long as you can inject a little bit of humor into your social marketing profile or even just a little piece of who you really are then you will start attracting lots of friends and widening your network.

You also need to maintain an honest approach throughout. No point uploading photos to your profile of P Diddy or Pamela Anderson pretending they’re someone you’re interested in. People want to get to know you so be honest.

Have fun! That’s one of the great things about social marketing is that you can have lots of fun doing it. Meeting new people, learning new stuff and making money from the traffic that you get from it all at the same time.

Also remember to help people. The more you can help people the more they will help you in return. So add useful links and recommendations to your profiles. Point people in the right direction and answer any questions people post on your profile or contact you with.

BUT WHAT ARE THE SECRETS TO MASSIVE SOCIAL TRAFFIC?

Easy. You can find them in this course;
