Helping Your Business Go Viral – Social Media Marketing Tips

Social Media 3Finding new ways to get your business or website known is difficult. Social media provides new forms of advertising that can attract customers to your business. These are some tips on how to go about using social media marketing to benefit your business.

Make tracking your site a priority. How many followers are you getting? How much activity is coming your way? If you compare these statistics with your actions, you can see what works and formulate a strategy for success. If you don’t follow your results, you won’t know which aspects of social media marketing are paying off.

TIP! Make sure your YouTube videos all have links to your primary website in your descriptions. Also, make sure your YouTube channel is tied to the rest of your social media presence using the appropriate buttons.

YouTube is a great tool in promoting your website. When you post a video on YouTube, each one of your video descriptions should start with a link that goes to your blog or website. Use the description block to include keywords that are relevant to your market. Include your top keywords in your meta tags also.

Try buying some advertising on social networking sites. Not only is it relatively inexpensive, it is targeted towards specific keywords that users post in their profiles. MySpace and Facebook both offer this sort of targeted advertising. This advertising also makes use of demographic information not available to other advertisers.

Make links that tie all your social media sites together. For example, put links to your Twitter, Youtube and Facebook pages on your blog. Include links to your FB page and your blog in your Twitter profile. These links will help you reach out to a wider audience and the same people will be exposed to your content more than once.

TIP! Apply relevant hash tags whenever possible to boost the number of individuals who see your Twitter content. For instance, to share cooking tips, try to use “#cooking” and “#food” tags.

Holding events such as a photo contest that relate to your business is a wonderful way to involve your followers in your social media marketing campaign. Give your users an incentive to come up with a creative photo that includes your brand and reward them for good work. People will end up sharing pictures with you and others in their list of friends; those friends may not know you, and when they share the photo they give your company wider coverage in new markets.

Social Media

If your company maintains a blog, you should make certain that updates to the blog are announced on the various social media websites that your company participates in. The people who follow you through social media sites will appreciate being notified when you provide fresh, useful content for them.

TIP! Sure, you’re focused on driving business to your site and making money, but you shouldn’t be singlemindedly focused on that goal. You need to offer content that is useful and interesting for your visitors and establish a relationship of trust before they become buyers.

Use these strategies to succeed in Social Media Marketing. If you use them to the fullest, you can leave your competitors in the dust. Once you are skilled at social media marketing, the amount of business you will get will shock you.
