You have to create content, be part of many communities, and proceed incrementally. Too often we see social media strategies that involve putting photos into Flickr, videos into YouTube or the creation of a Facebook application and then never revisiting the environment to engage with the communities around this content.

As a top Digg submitter, it worked like this: at first, people noticed my heavy community involvement and my participation , and consequently, my submitted stories easily front-paged. The community had to react. There’s no real community in Digg. Most other sites you belong to probably have a bigger sense of community.

Not only leaders in their professional lives, nearly all these women use their social profiles to express their passions outside the workplace, which range from NASCAR, art, travel, billiards, wine and music to community service, politics and, of course, family. Her background includes stints in management consulting and the energy industry.

The only investment in the act of marketing on the social web is time and energy. The easiest way to find these people is to find the communities that your users frequently visit, be it forums, Twitter, or other social networks. Give your customers a voice in the communities where they already have influence.

Perhaps he was reading, but was he actually investing time or energy into the site itself but still wanted to write for the blog. Social media is all about community, and that community exists whether you need them or not. Why not get acquainted with the community now and before it’s too late? Listen first, people!

These scenarios come to fruition in spontaneous communities, on social networks, and other self-service tools – all thanks to the availability of low cost technology and access to the world wide web. You can also not use the tools correctly or not behave appropriately within communities around the tools and market poorly.

And how useful is the site to online community members. The ABC has done a hybrid site – not really a community conversation build but aggregating information from multiple communities. Like someone looked at the tools that MyObama used and then promptly dropped all the community elements. And odd site.

By May 18 , the MetaFilter community dared to ask the same, very unpopular questions Becky and some of her friends had been asking for months. This happened last week on the tightly knit community on Plurk, which has a unique and friendly atmosphere as Tamar described a few weeks ago. Ask for proof. Be observant!

With Twitter being so incredibly large and vast, there are different types of mini-communities. Then, focus your energy on the main account but don’t neglect the second account either. I started following people who wrote or commented on the SEO blogs to develop my own Twitter community. Call them cliques if you will.

Figure out what your policy is, and stick with it. This post didn’t seem to fit with your ethos, but it did prompt me to buy “the new community rules&# on kindle. I’ll be sure to forward you to my PayPal account before I spend anymore time and energy (which equals money) on you. You usually do. No more, I say!

Track things like audience/community sentiment (positive/negative) if you want to map effort to results. Use social networks respectfully to share the best of your content, in a community-appropriate setting. Have a blog comments policy handy, if you get into the deleting mode. Make it easy for your community to reach you.
