Money
Spam is a huge mistake, and if you do it you will fail, you will get the reputation as a spammer and people will stop following or being your friend. The last thing you want to be is invisible, because that means you aren't making any money. There are lots of social media websites out there but we are only going to focus on the key ones. Twitter, Facebook, MySpace and YouTube. These are the top dogs you should divert your attention to. But before we get started though let's cover the number one no-no that could affect your ability to make money using social media. When you send out friend request don't just send a blank request and a link to your website. If I don'tknow you, and you send me emails and/or request with the intention of selling me something, then you are guilty of spamming.
What you want to do is introduce youself, strike up a conversation and find some common ground with those you are reaching out to. If you bum rush your prospect with an offer, they are going to run away. Let's talk briefly about Twitter, this website is relatively new on the scene, however Twitter is definitely a heavy hitter. First of all the way Twitter works is you can see what other people are doing through short messages called tweets. If you wish to connect with someone you can choose to follow that person. By doing this whenever that person sends out a message or tweet you will receive it. Generally when you follow someone they normally follow youback; however you have full control as to who you follow. Now the beauty of Twitter is some people have thousands of followers and their list of followers is completely open to everyone. So you have the opportunity to connect with just about anyone. The content you decide to post will benefit you greatly if it has value.
DO NOT join Twitter and just start spamming your links all over the place. People will unfollow you and most if not all of your post will be ignored. Remember that first of all Twitter is a social network, so you should be communicating and connecting with people. If you cannot think of anything to talk about here is a website to help you out stufftotweet.com, this site shows some of the top stories on just about everything.
