It’s a big report but one takeaway is to create ORIGINAL content that adds value. Seems common-sensible doesn’t it? Well there have been (are) alot of websites out there that were build with canned, copied or re-gurgitated content. And Google’s Algorhythm (Panda) is getting better at figuring all this out.

  • People get to know you.
  • People come to trust you.
  • People develop trust in your brand

You will want to post to Twitter and Facebook several times a day (to be effective) with links back to your site.  And you can’t just post to Twitter. You must be social.  A quality social media services company will interact with others for you on Twitter by finding good profiles for you to follow, retweeting great posts by others and thanking people who mention or retweet your posts.

Actively Following Others

You want to follow others and be followed. A social networking services provider should look for people in your niche (babies, children, moms..) who share great information so you can pass it along. These other people may follow you back or spread the word about your business as well.

Let You Focus on Your Business

The biggest reason that most businesses outsource social media tasks is that they simply do not have the time to maintain it themselves. A good social networking service provider will concentrate on maintaining your primary social media for you so you can concentrate on other business!
