This is a guest post by James King from Better Start Blogging. Google is still very powerful, people read blogs, watch YouTube, use Twitter and social bookmarking sites to find their content. I strongly recommend using a pinging program like Ping.FM One of the easiest ways to develop a community is create a Facebook fan page.

There are several other options, such as Flickr, Tumblr, WordPress, Blogger, etc… even Ping.fm. You can set up your own blog. Just like Posterous, you can use Amplify as your primary blogging platform, as well as auto-post to your own blog. Ah, but does the image accompanying your blog post show up?

After using both Plurk and Twitter pretty heavily, I’ve come to the conclusion that Plurk is best at its features for community-building, whereas Twitter succeeds more with its interface that bolsters information-sharing.

Blog Comments (The blog is on WordPress) Disqus This is what I use to manage comments here at Convince & Convert. ChatCatcher This is a nice little tool that finds Tweets about your blog posts, and automatically adds them as comments. I think Facebook Lite makes Facebook engagement easier – maybe you will too?

Streaming only your blog’s RSS feed on Twitter. (If It’s important to understand the communities you contribute to and to understand the rules of the sites that you target. FriendFeed is a service but it’s also a community. Cross-post on all social sites using a site like ping.fm.
