How to Use Social Media to Boost Your Web Traffic



    If you want to reach your market, you need to be using social media. Three-quarters of Americans now use social media. Social media is growing three times faster than the Internet overall.

    Social Media Optimization (SMO) is a way of generating popularity for a website through social medias like popular online communities and community websites. It is in many ways like viral marketing where a website is made popular through word of mouth created through the use of networking in social bookmarking, video and photo sharing. SMO are the best ways to get traffic to a website as they provide free ways to the surfer. This can greatly enhance the traffic to a website and that too for free or at very little cost. SMO is also called web 2.0 marketing.

   Social Media Optimization has proved to be a better way of attracting traffic to a website and getting the site optimized than Search Engine Optimization (SEO). It focuses on driving traffic from sources other than search engines and thus it gives improved search ranking.

    Social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter can help you promote your business. Surveys show that nearly 80% of users would rather add the “brands” as their friend than letting companies advertise these to them.

Twitter
    Twitter allows users to post text updates via SMS, instant messaging, email, Twitter’s website and third party applications. Users have their own profile page that displays their latest updates. In addition, users can become “friends” with one another, or simply be a “follower.” Other than reading another person’s profile page, a user can also receive others’ updates through text messages, RSS or third party applications.
  
    Twitter has become extremely popular. Microblogging, writing short messages commenting on what’s happening right now, may give a company some exposure. Many companies seem to just feed their blog RSS feed into Twitter and leave it at that.

Facebook
    Facebook is the largest online social networking site and currently has over 400 million users. Facebook allows people to interact, share photos, and find people. In addition to using Facebook for social purposes, many people use it professionally for business networking.

     More and more businesses with an online  presence  will  link  users to a Facebook page. They will also frequently use Twitter and RSS feeds. Facebook has  become an integral part of online marketing strategies, and users  are  able  to connect to numerous sites using their Facebook Log-In. http://twitter.com/http://www.tradima


     There are also Fan Pages on Facebook. This  is  a  relatively new offering. Fan Pages are targeted more toward a  specific entity rather  than  an  individual social  networking  with friends and family. Just because they  are labeled Fan Pages does not necessarily mean that the entity is a celebrity,  a band,  etc. Fan  sites  can  be  created  for  anything, especially online stores. More and more businesses are making use of Fan Pages to target their users to a Facebook entity that represents their enterprise.http://www.facebook.com/pages/create.phphttp://mashable.com/2009/03/30/successful-facebook-fan-page/http://www.smbtrendwire.com/2009/02/03/facebook-online-business-marketing-advanced-tactics

According to alexa.com, Digg.com is one of the most popular websites on the internet, reaching 1 out of every 100 internet users daily.

     While Digg.com currently allows  submissions  in  six  categories  -  Entertainment, Gaming, Science, Technology, Videos,  World  &  Business - the vast majority of submissions fall into the Science  and Technology categories. This is partly because the original configuration of the Digg.com website  had  14  categories,  all  subsections  of  the  present Technology or Science categories.
