Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ – Online Marketing: How to Use Social Media to Bring Qualified Prospects to Your Website

The methods you use to promote yourself, your products, or your services will be the deciding factor in how successful your online business is. You may think you can achieve online success simply by having a great looking website, but that’s just not the case. Having a website is a necessity if you’re going to have an online business, but you can’t just put up a website and wait for customers to start flooding in to buy whatever it is you’re selling.

Once your website is built and is live on the internet, the next step is to decide what types of online marketing tools you’re going to use to build your website into a thriving online business.

The unfortunate part of online marketing is that there are tons of scams and schemes disguised as good methods to use to market your business online. There also lots of “free” online marketing methods which, in the end, aren’t really free at all.

However, there is one free online marketing method that’s not a scam and really is free. More importantly, it’s a method that’s incredibly effective at bringing “ready-to-buy” prospects to your website. The online marketing method I’m talking about is social media marketing.

Social media marketing is the latest in a constant stream of free online marketing methods to come along since the beginning of the 21st century. Online business owners all over the internet are using different types of this very effective online marketing method to make themselves tons of profit and there’s no reason you can’t be doing the same thing. You just need to know the correct way to use social media marketing so you don’t make costly mistakes in your online marketing efforts.

But before you can begin to correctly use social media to market your products and services online, you need to have a basic understanding of what social media is and how, when used correctly, it can help you build a huge following of customers and returning customers to your online business.

Social media marketing in its most basic form means interacting with your potential customers in a way that makes them feel drawn to you and to what it is you have to offer. This positive interaction isn’t achieved by selling something. A successful, positive interaction with your potential customers involves offering them information they can use to solve the problems that matter to them. To facilitate this positive interaction you can use any of the available social media websites available on the internet. The four most popular social media sites on the internet right now are Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and MySpace.

Setting up a profile on any or all of these sites is easy and is the first step you’ll need to take if you choose to use social media as one of your online marketing tools. Once you’ve set up your account and/or your profile, you can begin posting things on your page that people who might buy your product or service will be interested in knowing. The possibilities here are endless.

As you continue to post valuable (and free) information to your page, people will find your page, and if you’re targeting the right group of people for the product or service you offer, people will find your page and will want to follow you so they can continue to learn from you. You, and the information you have, will eventually become invaluable to them and they’ll begin to get to know you, like you, and trust you.

 Once you’ve successfully gained the trust of your potential customers, you can then begin to offer them your products and services at a competitive rate and you’ll be well on your way to building a profitable online business.

Advertising, Reviews, and Public Relations Collide: Social Media

In 1999, I had done it. As Vice President of Sales and Marketing and as a self-proclaimed marketing guru, I had done it. A hat trick – the ice hockey term used when a player makes three goals in the same game. In the same industry magazine I ran an advertisement strategically placed next to an independent glowing product review and an editors article announcing my new product based on my press release. I had truly done it.
