Sticking A Toe In Social Media Waters Series Part 2. Last week I started this experiment by signing up for a Twitter account and built a Facebook Fanpage. Here are week one's results:
I was chatting it up with my partners here at LoudClick about a new blog post and we battered back and forth as usual. This time, however, we came up with an idea that I'm going to pursue - something based upon an off-handed comment of "Not a lot of people are understanding social media so I'm going to write about my left big toe." Absurd, yes, but there is something here.....you'll see.
The times they are a-changin'...still. The effect the internet has had on all businesses is profound.For companies to take full advantage of the opportunities that abound today, they need to think smaller, more personal and less corporate.
LoudClick.net has been launched using the ClickWrite Microsite Platform. As the developer of this technology, we thought it was hightime to show its many capabilities and implement our own network of microsites.
LoudClick now offers the ground-breaking ClickWrite Microsite Platform providing an online marketing solution for store and/or agency networks that far exceeds the benefits found in conventional web marketing.

Much has been said of the importance of two way conversations online - the very core of social media offering the ability to build genuine relationships with potential friends and customers. Yet some continue to see this as a one way street...
In a sense, the skills necessary to be successful with social media are not necessarily technical skills - they are more people skills. What? People skills? Yes, people skills. Social media is all about being social.
Using social media to distribute the content of your website is a proven formula for success. Always remember that social media is not the heart of the matter - the content of your website is. Your website and its high quality content is the asset to be distributed and social media helps you do that.
