It seems like almost every day more and more cool sites are popping up taking advantage of the social web. A few weeks ago I stumbled across another gem, Lanyrd and it’s officially my go to site for all things conferences. I’m always a fan of great UI and simplicity in execution, and Lanyrd nails both.

If you do a search for social media jobs, you’ll find a fair share of sites claiming to specialize in social media jobs, but 9 times out of 10, they’re just another iteration of a site pulling job ads from a job network such as JobThread. Twitter: www.twitter.com/socialjobber. And listings are free through 2010!

In comparison, Twitter comes in at 14% and Facebook at 9%. Find Linked In Groups that relate to the topic(s) you write about or provide on your site. You have to manually post to each group, so find a good core of 5-10 groups that are relevant to you or your site and request to join. Don’t get too crazy here.

Step 1: Hit The Big Three (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn) It’s no secret that social networking is all the rage, so it doesn’t take a genius to point out that you need to start there. By far, Facebook , Twitter and Linked In are where I think most businesses should start their community building. Still overall, an affordable option.

Between Twitter and Facebook, I had built a nice little social network. Twitter has turned into a nice, strong following that I leverage for professional and social sharing, while Facebook really had become my way to stay connected to the people I actually have or had relationships with. I’m not so sure I’d even bother.
