Let’s face it, it’s challenging to absorb the ‘know how’ and pros of social networking sites without feeling overwhelmed and getting everything in a systematic fashion.

And yes, for a strategic social marketing plan of action, a ‘social system’ is essential for your sanity.

Here are 10 pros of social networking sites with a few excellent resources attached:

The granddaddy of them all. According to Alexa rankings, Facebook is the 5th most popluar site in the world today.

Unfortunately, to many marketers have adopted their tacky ‘MySpace Mentality’ in Facebook by pasting endless links on your profile wall.

Lots of potential for marketing, if you are prepared to build relationships first.

Best Resource will be Mari Smith, relationship and buzz marketing specialist. You will find plenty of golden nuggets on her fan page which can be found by doing a search on Facebook.

2. Squidoo

Check out Rena Klingenberg’s Squidoo Traffic Power lens for great tips and resources.

Only original, relevant content will cut it.  Read more...
