Facebook, MySpace, Blogging continued...

Search engines, advertisers and webmasters love to see popularity, which is why it pays to advertise your own stuff. Have you created a blog, an application, a website, etc. If you can show to the in-charges that your site has coverage, the money that people pay for these advertisements grows exponentially. So again, you can use your popularity as a social networker to try and advertise your site, to generate hits and visits, and most importantly, to get your link out there so people can see it. How many times have you clicked on a link just because it was there, or because its title vaguely interested you? Go to forums like Answers.com and post your link for people to see. If you’re lucky, someone will like your product so much that they’ll start posting and advertising your link for you, at which point you’re well on your way to a popular website.
