Are You Growing your Database? You own Nothing in Social Media!

Hi Warriors,

I just wanted to share this awesome article, simple to the point and makes a lot of sense for every online business.

Let me quote first pare:
You don't own a thing in social media.

Not your Twitter profile.
Not your LinkedIn group.

You don't own any of it, and your existence in social media is at the whim of the companies who provide those services. You can go from digital hero to zero in two clicks of a mouse. Your Klout score can vanish faster than you can say Delete My Account.

So what can you own?

Thanks,
Mohsin

    This is so true, while Social Media is a great asset that can really help grow your business, you should never place all your (advertising/marketing) eggs in that basket!

    Good thoughts.

    I have to say you made me think of a site I own ... that I basically don't own. Google can take it all away in a second. I got dumped out of their database for one site which was just at the point of making a few hundred monthly through AdSense.

    I still have the site, but it's not really listed very well any where ... any more.
