Social Networking




Social Networking according to other bloggers Amanda Webb and Jen Havice can be very effective.
According to Amanda in her blog "3 Facebook Advertising Tools That Will Save You Significant Time and Money" you can advertise on Facebook. She states that Facebook has options to make campaigns easier. She also states that the ads on Facebook can, "help you plan your campaign, help you monitor your campaign, and simply the ad creation process." The ads that can be put on Facebook are typically free. You can target specific types of ads, depending on what you chose, it could cost to add information on it. However, you will be reaching a large amount of people that could help in your campaign or whatever it is that you choose to put in your ad.
Jen Havice wrote her blog on LinkedIn, which is a social media site that you can put into detail your work experience. She states the pros and cons about having a LinkedIn. LinkedIn, like Facebook, has ads that you can pay for to advertise and/or campaign. Jen states that, "If LinkedIn is one of the places to best market your skulls and your business, incorporating its publishing platform may be a very good call.
I agree with both of these blog posts. I think that social media such as Facebook and LinkedIn would be good if you were trying to sale something or campaign for something specific. They all have their pros and cons, but over all I think that they would benefit anyone who is doing ads to help them. One of the cons is that they aren't always free, that could become very expansive depending on how many ads that you have.
