I run a business &amp; networking organization in my local area, and just recently held a 2-part seminar on social networking in business. Many of my attendees were astounded to hear that I still count Myspace in for many of my marketing tasks. They seem to feel that it's only a spam social network, full of teens and young adults looking for a good time. And to some extent, I agree. But with the proper security settings in place, and taking special care who you do connect with, Myspace can be just a great for certain types of marketing as any other social network!<br><br>I primarily use Myspace for video marketing. Posting videos to Myspace ensures (just like YouTube) that they'll be picked up by search engines and other video sites and automatically syndicated. Videos I post to Myspace always show up in top positions in Google, sometimes faster than their YouTube counterparts. And as you mentioned, Myspace can be great from b2b email marketing. Even leaving comments can be a helpful form of marketing! It's also a great social network for non-profit organizations, especially with the Myspace Impact Awards.<br><br>It's important not to count Myspace out. It can be a great way to market as long as you know how to use it properly! I have had great success with Myspace marketing for my home business, and am growing a steady list for my brick &amp; mortar business!<br><br>-Ina Stanley, Marketing Specialist &amp; Mentor<br><a href="http://www.top-edcgold-mentor.com" rel="nofollow">Learn2Earn Now: Expert Marketing Training from EDC Gold &amp; Diamond</a>Top EDC Gold &amp; Diamond MenWed, 28 May 2008 19:01:35 -0000
