Social Media

As these projects get more popular and gain more publicity, in the process of developing dream makers we will start to promote more and more entrepreneurs that are struggling to get their products moving. In order to achieve that, we would have to promote the entrepreneurs on the social media and here lies our vision of becoming a Social Media Specialists in the near future.

There are these things that we have achieved to make this blog a success story, I started writing about life, its happiness and tragedies, then moved to business and finally fiction.  For a blog to be really successful, I suppose promotion is the most important thing, people come from various walks of life to the web, the medium is vast, in fact some people even call it the World Wide Wait.  Information is distributed, some correct, mostly not incorrect, but opinions of people, it takes time to sift through the opinions to get to the real, defined and objective information.  The information anomaly is so large that even large sites like Wiki use the philosophy of user edit option.  In any case, I did the following things :

1.  Used Social Media as a tool to get people on the web, Facebook, Google and LinkedIn are some of the most popular sites that I targeted.  Facebook is great if you are trying to get back in touch with old long lost friends, though most people use it to connect to real time friends which actually doesn't make sense to me.  The results on Facebook were instant, overnight, actually in 3 months the blog had reached the 4000 mark, and that elated me.  

2.  Results on LinkedIn were slower because it is a business community portal and required business oriented news or thoughts, but when they came, they were rapid and fast.  I have enjoyed the results from LinkedIn more than the results on Facebook

3.  Google has been a pleasure to work on and the community has accepted and given me a lot of hits for the same.  I have hit the 10000 mark courtesy Google.  Google in fact has been the most popular of the medias for me and an absolute beauty to write for.  Have on the instance of some members changed my style of writing to creative fiction and experimented with a lot of styles for the same. 


It has been touched on in lot articles that Digg and StumbleOn are also social media that can fetch followers on to the blog, I am yet to experiment with the same, and will continue on the 3 giants of social media, namely Facebook, Google and LinkedIn and will move on to Digg and StumbleOn after a few months.
