If you're a Serious Entrepreneur who's been involved in Internet Marketing for any length of time, you're learning that using social media is a great way to promote your business for free.If you don't know what you're trying to do, however, then most likely you are doing it wrong. You might have pissed off Google and other people who had thought that you were their online "buddy". You might even have your accounts on Myspace, Facebook and Twitter canceled.You are now branded as a SPAMMER!Online social networks are one of the blessings of Web 2.0. Plenty of people use them to stay in touch with their friends, meet new people, make work-related connections and more. Unfortunately, it seems like you can't have something good on the Internet without someone coming along to abuse it, and that's as true of online social networks as anything.Internet property is much like any web page where Internet Sites allow peers to interact, which is then called social media online. Web 2.0 is just another word to refer to sites that allow people to contribute to it rather than simply read what's on it.A blog is web 2.0 (for the blogger), Facebook and MySpace are web 2.0, Flickr and Twitter are web 2.0 and social bookmarking sites are all web 2.0.As online marketing evolved, online businessmen found out that they were able to promote their stuff using all these for free. It's like, "For Free? Cool!"But no one was around to tell them that it WAS NOT cool.Social media a broad word that encompasses many kinds of sites but there's an online etiquette that dictates which web 2.0 sites allow you to have a slice of the Internet property for yourself and your business - without ticking off the wrong people and causing you to lose your reputation as a serious entrepreneur in the network marketing industry.To place it into an analogy:The weekend is here! You go to party, hoping to catch a few friends, knock back a few drinks and just basically relax and have a good time. Suddenly, some stranger comes up to you, introduces himself and suddenly launches into a sales pitch.Isn't that such a big turn-off? This scenario actually happens when people start using social media sites in the wrong way.To be a really serious businessman, you need to understand that social media is for making friends and not money. Like conducting businesses face to face, this is how online marketing should be done. There is a specific place and time for business. Social networking is one way of making connections and learning something about your potential business contacts.Not a single person likes things forced down his throat. Respect is essential when building long lasting relationships, and it takes lots of time. The same goes for creating loyal followers on your business.
