Want to Increase Your Web Presence? Use Your Social Media Friends
Increase your web presence by using new and old friends that you connect with on a daily basis. Social media is custom made to boost your web presence by using these suggestions:
Blogging about all the books you have enjoyed (especially book sites of friends that have a link to your blog) can help you to gain new friends through social media. Social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter has the potential to really boost your web’s presence into the stratosphere. Create a Facebook account if you don’t have one. Whenever you find new Facebook friends make sure they get the link to your blog site. When you are connecting about a subject that one of your friends have a blog or book site about, talk the friend’s site up (remember, a link to your blog site is also on the friend’s site). Every time one of you new Facebook friends go to the site, there’s a chance that your site is getting exposure too.
Discussing your blog and asking your new Facebook friends to mention your blog with the link included, helps to get your blog out to their friends.
Microblogging with Twitter is another great social networking tool you can use to get more viewers to your blog. Again you can Twitter about your blog site especially when the conversation is about some topic you have on your blog. If you don’t want to appear to be promoting yourself, promote a friend’s blog site or book (make sure that your blog site link is in one of the comments on the site). Again you are helping your friend and your self at the same time.
Networking through LinkedIn is another new and effective way to get your blog name prominent on the web. LinkedIn is a website that professionals, including writers and authors use to connect with each other. After signing up, find writers and authors on the site, link to their site, if your blog or a friend’s blog is a similar topic; leave a constructive comment about your friend’s site or about your blog. Social media is so hot right now that using one or more of these networks can boost your blog’s web visibility online.
