Any thoughts on how helpful Ning might be as a social site for a business looking to "get themselves out there"?

If you can find some targeted groups, they can be beneficial. I have several that I'm active on starting around this time of year, to advertise my Etsy shop.

  Hi LBD,
  
  Like any niche-related forum, Ning communities can be useful for exposure.
  
  However, Ning communities are all hosted on the same domain so backlink value is pretty low for SEO purposes.
  
  Thanks

  How much exposure can you get on Ning? They seem pretty self contained communities like you have to bring people in instead of finding them on Ning like say you would on Myspace...or am I missing something?
  
  Thank you!
  
  Thanks

I think the key is to find relevant communities that already have a couple thousand members and then join those. I don't bother with small communities.

Well in this case the business would be STARTING a community. So is NING still helpful like it would be to have a Facebook or Myspace or is it to better to focus the efforts on their own blog site. Or is it a nice addition?

Thanks!
