Choosing the best social site for your business
With all the social media sites out there and there is a lot of them, which ones should you use for your business? Well from an SEO stand point it is worth while to have a business profile on all of them. At least on all the major players in the social media space. Such asFacebook, Twitter, Google+,Pinterest, Instagram and Linkedin for starters. It is practical and a good way to have some links to your website coming from authority sites like these. This will help your site when it comes to search results. There are a number of other sites as well that are not so much social media but even blogging sites that are good places to get links from as well as making use of the blogging sites and using them to share content about your business. Sites like Blogger, Tumblr, WordPress, Blogger.com, and Weebly. These are places that you can create a home for your business and actually gain followers and express yourself about your business a little more freely.
If you are in the branding phase of your business I would suggest using as many of these sites as possible even if it’s just setting them up. You want to make a nice foot print for Google to see and help your business stand out. Now as far as which site’s to use the most you are going to want to do a little homework. Of course Facebook should be a primary candidate for your business, but don’t just start posting. Take your time to check out your competition and see what others are doing. Do this for all the sites you plan on setting up an account on. Take the time to see what type of content they are posting and what posts are getting engagement and try to do something similar. So my advise goes like this. Don’t try to cover every site out there with content, pick 2 or 3 that you see others doing well on and concentrate your efforts there.
