Social networking sites like Facebook, Myspace and Stumbleupon, just to name a few, aren’t just for the internet socialite any more. They’ve captured the interest of many an internet marketer as well, and why not? It’s the perfect way to network, make money blogging, meet colleagues and form valuable joint ventures.

In a nutshell, these social watering holes can help get the word out about you and your Legitimate Home Internet Business at nearly warp speed because of the huge volume of visitors they receive.

But how can these sites actually benefit the online marketer? Well, for starters they allow you to create your own dedicated personal pages where you can add things like product or service reviews, work at home ideas, articles, ratings, comments and encourage feedback from other readers.

Furthermore, sites like Del.icio.us and Digg take it a step further by allowing you to save your favorite links to your own website or blog pages so it can be readily shared with anyone visiting your site.

  • Very interesting article, Peter. One thing I can underline is 'time management'. If you're not careful, you can spend hours at these social networking sites before you know it. Also, it's important to keep in mind that you want to use these sites as a place to promote your business, so you want to focus on that, unless of course if you have different agenda in mind :)

  • Very useful and interesting article. Thank Peter.

  • I agree with you as well considering there's a lot to learn when it comes to marketing in social media sites
  • Finally got around to reading this article, which I feel is crucial to my niche. One question I have though is that she emphasizes the importance of social networking in regard to building backlinks. Is that true, though, as I'm assuming networks like facebook, youtube and the like are all nofollow? I'm assuming they'll help somewhat, perhaps because of the high PR of the sites? But will they have a huge effect due to their nofollow status?

  • @Hip Hip Music: You're quite right. There are still about 20 social sites that are do-follow so these sites are still good to use for the purpose of link building.

Thanks for sharing.
  • I have met people in India, Belgium, Canada, UK & even the US that have entered into business deals, joint ventures, deep friendships and more with all from the comfort of my own computer. It does not limit the ability to communicate, but rather it changes it in seriously dramatic ways that are excitingly powerful. Less, of course, you want to step back to the old days of the face to face connections.
