BLOGGING TIPS TO PROMOTE YOURSELF ON THE SOCIAL SCENE
Notice the headline said to promote yourself, not your blog or website. This blogging tip is designed to promotes yourself to the socialites around the various social sites.
All social sites provide a way to promote yourself through profiles. They may even provide a page that you can tart up to look fancy and maintain your complete bio. However, if you are active on a range of social sites then it may become a pain having to go through all of them to make updates. This blogging tip may make life a little easier.
When completing profiles on social sites, submitting to directories to creating a profile box for article submission, include a link to your ‘about me’ page on your blog. If you wish to keep your about me as a more formal page, then one blogging tip is to simply create a dedicated social media landing page. This page could contain all the pertinent information about you along with links to your profiles on each of the social sites you are on.
If anyone ever asks, ‘what sites are you on’, just send them to the landing page. There they will find all your social links in the one place. If you ever add more networks to your activities, you only have to update the one page. Likewise, if your details change then you can simply update the landing page first, and over time slowly go through the other sites.
A simple blogging tip that would take about an hour to put together but could make life so much easier for all your new friends through the social networking scene.
