How to get started in social media

Start to blog

If you decide to go into social media the first thing you should do is start to blog. In your blog the following information's should be given.

Introduce yourself and your company to the internet community

Make it obvious how people can find and contact you

Also you should make a page which shows your products and services

Create a Facebook site

If Facebook would be a country it would be the one with the third biggest population in the world. That is why you seriously should consider to place your company there.

Avoid trying to sell your products there

Use your site to inform people about what you’re doing

Try to get in contact with your customers and replay to critics

Get a LinkedIn account

Finally you should get a LinkedIn account. There you can find the appropriate staff for your business. It is a platform which sets its focus on the working lives of the people rather than on the social lives.
