Establishing a social media strategy will help you see where potential customers are hanging out. You can search for related groups and Fan Pages through Facebook, start accounts on social bookmarking sites such as Digg or StumbleUpon, and check on who is linking to your site to find out who’s interested.

When you integrate your profiles, you help build the relationships you have already started on each social site. Do I have social media integration on my business blog? If you have a business blog, you have to integrate your social media profiles on it. I prefer Social Mention because they are more thorough than Google.

How do you get your news? In the past I have variously read newspapers, watched TV news bulletins, read news.bbc.co.uk and obviously more recently sites such as Digg. Now it seems I get most of my news from Twitter. As Chris Garrett explains in his post, if you follow numerous feed bots, you can get the news all the time.

It’s great to build a self-sustainable social network and then be able to sit back and relax while the users run the show. It’s even better when you take part in the everyday details of your site and focus on your user’s experience. Also, Reddit allows you to link to pages on its own site.

Only few months ago, I stopped visiting every single social network and started to concentrate on the ones that mattered to me the most.

I had graduated college the previous year, so many of my classmates seemed to have “moved on&# from the social sites of my time (all of which have dissolved). If students aren’t looking to pay to connect to their friends (it would defeat the allure of coming to the site), the site needs to pay for itself in some other way.

Just like it’s not uncommon for someone to click the “Digg&# button on Digg without ever visiting the site. Some of those tactics may seem more vile than others, but a dangerous reality exists that no one is talking about — with social networks comes theft, and very little pay off for content creators.
