Social Media Marketing: The Evolution Of SEO

Using social media marketing is a great way to promote your business, especially if you incorporate Google Gadgets into the act! Google gadgets are little pieces of code that can be downloaded from Google for free. You can use these gadgets as your signature when you post onto forums and blog pages and direct interested people to your website for free!

Social marketing is an ideal way to get a target market. If you want to direct people to your website, you need only visit some of the different social network sites on the internet and make a page. This can be done in a matter of minutes. Then find others who share your interests and send them a note with your own personal signature, complete with a cute little Gadget. Gadgets can be customized and make a fun signature at the end of your post. They can be used to link others to your website.

In addition to responding to blogs, you can also post comments on forums that are contained on most of the social networks. Make sure that the forum is relevant. The more you post, the more search engine optimized your website will become. You can literally create your own “buzz” about your website by using social networking.

A buzz on the internet indicates that something is hot. You can actually create your own buzz by posting links, through the use of Gadgets, in relevant forums and blogs throughout the internet. And make sure that you do not just concentrate on the well known social networks. Try some of those that are a little less well known and you may be surprised at the results you will get.

The name of the game is relevance. Make sure that the blogs and forums that you target are relevant to your website. Social networks are the easiest way to reach your target market. You can simply do a search and find thousands of social networks all over the internet. Make sure you find those where participants will be interested in your website and you are all set!

Do not limit yourself to using only .Com blogs, either. Make sure that you visit all of the blogs sites and social networking sites on the internet, including those that have suffixes of .gov and .net as well as others. Pay special attention to any that have .edu as these are often used for Universities and may contain a large target market.

Making sure that your content on your website is all search engine optimized can also help you market your brand. By spreading your website all over the internet with the use of Google Gadgets, you are giving your website the most exposure you can and will raise your rank in the search engines. Creating a buzz about your business is not difficult if you create a Google Gadget for your website and use it to post links throughout blogs and social forums.

Before you know it, everyone will be talking about the hottest website around - yours!

Re: Kevin needs "social glue" ideas - Hi, I like the idea of "10 items that could act as "social glue" because I am an internet marketer. But I agree with the rest that the 10 recent post is nice. Maybe we should open up a new section in the forums on Social Media...or Social Media Marketing. I will tell you that the world is about 1 1/2 behind when it comes to understanding social media.

Jeff[/quote:gvtxsu7g] Hi Jeff, Thanks for the suggestion. Why don't you start a new post (with a poll) to see if there's enough interest in your idea for a social media section?
Re: Should Evan add a "Social Media Marketing" category to the f - Hi, Online Marketing would be a great title, and having sub categories would make it even better, there would plenty of categories to choose from, Social Media, SEO, Article Marketing and yes even Affiliate Marketing to name just a few, great looking site btw Jeff, take care, Carol
Re: Should Evan add a "Social Media Marketing" category to the f - Just as an update, Evan has extended the poll's expiration date and says he'd like to see at least 25 "yes" votes before implementing the new category. Moreover, it would probably be called "Online Marketing" instead of Social Media Marketing".
Kevin's Case Study #11 - A New Forum Category? - Hi Everyone, 2009 is a new year and I'd like to create a new forum category to jazz things up! In the past, there's been some interest voiced about adding a "Social Media Marketing", "Online Marketing", "Internet Marketing" or "Online Promotion" category. I'll implement [u:1g2tv6tf]ONE[/u:1g2tv6tf] of those new categories, but can someone first tell me what the difference would be between the existing "Marketing" section and one of those new options mentioned above?
