The other day I read that people over 35 years old do not adapt too well to online social networks. They rather blog, for example. They look for more individual experiences. But, as everything else in the online world, online social networks are becoming a new way to get more customers.
Today, two out of every three people using the Web, have visited a social networking site. Most of these websites saw a 109 percent growth since 2004. In the busy world we live today, we need to find shortcuts and these networks are a quick and good way to meet people. Yes, you probably heard that a lot of people are marketing on MySpace.
MySpace might not be for everyone, or every business. Even when we talk about online social networks, we need to think :Niche
There are many websites, but which will offer you want you are looking for. Here are some suggestions: When visiting a social network site, look at the profiles to see if the people there have something in common with your industry, if they are the kind of people you’d like to trade information, after all, your goal is to make connections.
See what you can give to this community and also check if there is something for you there. You know the saying: “If you’d like to fly with eagles, don’t swim with ducks.†Look for communities where you find companies you aspire to become. A network used by individuals at the same level of growth and expertise.
The connections there would foster better resources and contacts. Here you have a few networks for business. LinkedIn This is one that is really popular.
Creates an individual profile based on your professional history and, via e-mail, allows you to invite other individuals to be part of your social circle. They, in turn, connect you to their colleagues. It is a great place if you are also job hunting
 Ryze
The primary focus of Ryze is linking individual people, not unlike LinkedIn, but it does so by determining common interests. Members receive a free home page as well as access to topical forums called Networks. The Networks allow users to discuss ideas relevant to their specific businesses as well as recruit other people. It also tells you which of the more than 250,000 members are located nearby.
 If LinkedIn is the connection to individuals, Spoke is the connection to companies. Marketed as the largest online business-to-business prospect database, Spoke claims to have more than 30 million contributors and 900,000 companies. Spoke specializes in three areas: direct marketing, sales and recruiting. Give them a try and tell me what you think.
You know that if you have an online business today, you need to use videos.
You also know you need to put them everywhere, in YouTube, Veoh and all the others.
This can be very time consuming but the benefits are huge.
I found out a free video submitter that can save you a lot of time.
First, let me share with you some tips to make your video happen online and become viral.
So here’s the strategy:
In order to have a lot of videos in the broadcaster’s sites, you can edit a few different versions of the same video (Different lengths, cut scenes, clips, etc…).
It takes more work in the editing part, but it is really worth.
Once you have a few different versions, autosubmit each one using the free video submitter software.
When you do this, you can target different sets of keywords.
See how it could work?
2nd Tip: After you’ve done that, you can also resubmit all those video’s again under different video file formats, and again targeting different keywords.
Â
This will give you multiple video listings for the same video on many of the video hosting sites.
You cannot post identical videos twice, which is why small edits and changes in file formats submitted will be enough to fool most of the video hosting sites so that you get multiple video listings.

This is an example of a WordPress page, you could edit this to put information about yourself or your site so readers know where you are coming from. You can create as many pages like this one or sub-pages as you like and manage all of your content inside of WordPress.
Switch Planet is a barter system site where you may switch or borrow dvds, cds, games and books with other users.
This is not the only option online for this kind of site, there are many like Craigslist and Peerflix, but Switch Planet offers a twist: it helps society and the environment.
When you go to their website, you’ll see that their mission is right at your left and if you click, you’ll read:
It is our goal to establish SwitchPlanet.com as a premier online community that is committed to helping reduce the impact waste is having on the planet by trading the things we no longer use to get the things we want.
“Use more…waste less.â€
Social Responsibility
– Reducing environmental waste
– Helping those who need it most
– Support arts/culture and education
Well, we can only say kudos to that!
Traders can opt to donate any amount they trade or not.
They are not the first website to do that, others like Squidoo also do the same, but it is a nice thing anyway. It is a good option for people that have a way of contributing with some organizations instead of having dvds collecting dust in the garage.
This website is fairly new, it started in February 2007, ranks 32,400 on Alexa and has a PR5, which shows it is becoming popular really fast.
They also offer a good refund policy in case any item arrives damaged.
The site also has friends groups and forums to improve communication among users and to allow them to comment on the products.
The profiles page also increases the engagement with users.
I though the website as a whole is very clean and easy to use and worth a try.
