Social media: get started
Ready to get started? Facebook, MySpace, YouTube, Twitter and LinkedIn are great starting points. You should look to connect within your niche. For instance, if your small business sells jewellery, you might want to find some jewellery groups on Facebook to join. Also, make sure you are measuring your success with social media by employing a web analytics program. Facebook provides its own analytics software called "Insights", which has been designed with small business pages in mind.
Finally, have fun and be creative. Just dive right in - no small business can afford to be left behind when it comes to social media.
