Have links on your main website to your main social media profiles. Your Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Google+ pages should all be linked from your main website. So, that customers know that they are the official websites for your company, and they can trust the content that is published on those social media sites.

To create social media content that really markets you covertly, come up with lists. Compose a list of the top fifty weird but true facts about your product, widget or niche. Top number lists seem a little boring to some, but they do tend to get quietly passed around the internet, providing a wonderful opportunity for your brand to get exposure.

Interact with your customers by asking them to share their stories. You could, for instance, ask them to post on your Facebook wall about their best memory linked to one of your products, or simply tell a story unrelated to your industry. Select the best stories or pictures and feature them.

Be sure to visit your social media page often and respond to comments as they come in. One of the benefits of visiting this media, is the fact that it is instant and up to date. It serves as a real-time research tool for many people who may have questions they want answered quickly. So your quick responses will help you build a relationship with them.

Create a RSS feed for your updates and give your readers the opportunity to subscribe to it. This will allow them to see your posts when they log into their Google account or right on their computer desktop if they use an RSS widget. Depending on your target audience, you will get more or less success with an RSS feed.

Try to collaborate with other people and companies when using social media. When they link to your content or share your content, you are being exposed to a brand new group of fans and followers. Return the favor and link to their content as well. The more people who link to your content and social media posts, the better off you are.
