Twitter - Know your Limits


Twitter enforces various limitations on the things you can do within the social network. This includes the amount of characters you’re allowed in a tweet, the length of your userrname, and how many people you’re able to follow before somebody on the other end goes, “Whoa.”

It isn’t obvious to most Twitter users that there are seven types of Twitter limits that affect regular Twitter users that I have identified so far.

Do You Buy Facebook Fans ??


One of the biggest questions that people have about social media marketing (and all business marketing actually) is the question of driving traffic. How do I get more customers? How do I get people to visit my website? How do I get more fans on Facebook. It makes sense, if people don’t find you, they can’t buy from you.
Buying Facebook Fans

My take is that you’re doing it wrong. Also, you just asked for help buying people. DO YOU HEAR YOURSELF RIGHT NOW?

Google + vs Facebook -- Which side are you... ???

Google + vs. Facebook: the debate has begun online and offline, both sides come armed with some pretty strong ammo. Google+ joined the social arena earlier this month with beta testers and changed the game, as some may say, of social networking permanently.
Google +’s features may seem similar to Facebook’s at first glance. With chat functionality, status updates, multimedia sharing and group collaboration capabilities, the two social networks appear pretty similar on paper. Upon further examination of tools and functions, we see distinct differences.

What works in the Western Countries may not work in India !

Bigadda.com, ibibo.com, fropper, indiarocks, bharatstudent etc. these are the Indian Social networking sites who have destined to Die.The mad rush for creating social networking sites in which almost everyone from big corporates to small to medium internet companies wanted to have their own pie and eventually burned their fingers.
More specifically, the above mentioned websites.

Ask them how much profitable have they been  and the answers will cut a sorry figure which i  bet will not be close to even 1% of what Facebook makes.

Twitter "Like"ed by More People than Facebook, Google or any other Top 10 websites (except one)


Yes, it was launched just over a year ago and Facebook’s Like button has become very popular on websites throughout the world – a recent study suggested that 10.8% of all sites on the internet use the button on their pages.
It may not always be visible, but all the major sites use Facebook’s Like in some capacity. And it’s very easy to add a Facebook Like button to your own website – simply head over to the Facebook Developers pages, type in your website and grab the code.
And while you’re there, you might want to check out the Like stats for some other websites, too. Maybe your competitors, for example. That’s right – Facebook lets you type in any website into its Like Button Code generator and if they’re using the button you can see their Like stats right there.
By looking at Alexa’s list of the top websites, we can quickly work out which of these is the most ‘Liked’ on the internet. Amazingly, it isn’t Facebook.com. They’re not even close. It isn’t Google, either, who aren’t even as well-Liked as Twitter. Yahoo? LinkedIn? Don’t make me laugh.
So who is it?

Who is responsible for Low Productivity : Social networks or irresponsible Employees..??

Well, to Start with the popularity and use of social media sites is eating up employee time during and after work. Should we again ‘blame the internet’ or are we hiring irresponsible employees?

Let’s face it, the workplace is full of distractions. On any given day, a coworker may come up to you while you are busy for a quick conversation. When that ends you get an unexpected phone call. After you take that phone call, you get asked to jump on another conference call you weren’t planning for. Next you get asked to join an impromptu meeting in someone’s office that wasn’t on your calendar.
