      Social is good at driving traffic and potential leads, but conversions are not the point. Focus on building quality content and an active community, and use it in conjunction with time-limited offers etc on your site for sales.

    Facebook just recently launched its service to allow businesses to promote its products and services. You can make use of that and even Twitter is also supporting it. You can also try Instagram that allow businessmen to promote their goods and services for free.

    You can gain a lot from social media and let’s admit that we can get more traffic from these websites.

      It depends on what you are selling and who is in your list of friends. I sell my books through social media and that works pretty well for me.

    Absolutely positively.

    If it's possible, plz show any tips.
    1) Pick something that people love (and you don't mind posting everyday)
    2) Create a page on FB about that
    3) Use ads to build that page for as cheap as possible
    4) Promote products, CPA offers, shirts, WHATEVER it may be that they like
    5) Build a list with it...
    6) Always be posting and building your page <== Ongoing process

    For me, I get some sales from Twitter, a few from Google+ but no luck with Facebook.

    Any thoughts?
    My guess is that you haven't been going at it consistently enough to see the results you are looking for...

    Kinda how it works for every money making system.

      Facebook is a great conversion tool for me to establish proof of what I know how to do. YouTube ads are proving awesome for generating leads and establishing that same proof. Twitter has been great for raising my Klout score and SEO but not much else. LinkedIn has got me great advice but few clients. Google+ has helped with using hangouts and to create my videos and get them on YouTube plus ranking high but not done much for business. This is different for everyone and usually specific to how you use it. Test out different approaches on all networks and see what gives you the best results!

    A proxy is nothing more than a tool your computer can use to protect you and your information. It can be thought of as a barrier; one that allows you to view websites and receive information from them without the website receiving your information.

    Now days most of the people spent their lot of time on social network sites such as facebook and other sites which you already know.

    Therefore, promoting company and products on social network sites are really beneficial these days.

    Most of the companies has accepted this rule and they are regularly updating their social network profile and post with information.

    Now coming to your point, if you are promoting your website on social network sites and they are coming to your website then it proves that you are earning money from social network sites.

    Because if 100 people have come to your site from social network then it must be possible that almost 10 people have been bought any type of product or services which you are offering.

  • I suggest you buy ads through Facebook and send traffic directly to your fan page.
    You should place an ad that gets people to like your page, then you can offer contests etc and it also has the potential to go viral. Also you can place your affiliate links as well as good content ie: videos and quotes. People love quotes, they can inspire!
    Hope this helps.

    IF you advertise them correctly you will have sales more than google SERP's can give you. These social networks specifically setup for your niche have almost 80% targeted traffic, so if you monetize well who the hell needs google anymore right?

    From personal experience, search has been far more effective then social. I think of social as display advertising, which has historically been and continues to be a brand marketing exercise.

    Search on the other hand is unparalleled as an advertising medium in terms of targeting and overall effectiveness.

    Much depends on your product/service and audience however.

      Absolutely..And those people who mixed up the search technique with social media sales they are actually put their business at high risk.

      Search is for user satisfaction. If your brand can not fulfill the user needs then it is useless.

      This is what I do too. Publish a great pre-selling article on your website. If your merchant offers article landers or the 2 page sales process link to those. Create a status update link on FB and use a great title and image. Then promote it with FB ads for more traffic. If it earns more than your ad costs, ramp up your daily budget and run it as long as you can.
