Social media and your website

"I hate all that social media stuff - I'm not even on Facebook"

You're not alone. But ask yourself, "do I need it for my business?"  There is definitely a case for it - whether your business is B2B (business to business) or B2C (business to consumer).

Its a fact that a lot of people do use social sites, and having a "many people like this page" button somewhere can give a good deal of credibility to your site.  If you're in a B2C business then having a social media presence is another way to bring visitors directly to your website.

Increasingly the search engines like social media too, and a tweet or a like can count as much as a link from another website.

5 ways social media can boost your website and brand

  • If you have social media pages we can include a link to them on your website
  • We'll put tweet, like, +1, pin... whatever, buttons on your web pages so others can 'vote' for you. See the footer of this page for an example (and please feel free to tweet or share)
  • Mention your website on social media sites when ever you write about your business.
  • Embed your twitter feed on your site - like the one on the right
  • Even if you don't use twitter, you can embed a twitter feed for your business topic

And if you're not into social media yourself call in an expert to do it for you - or maybe just to get you started.
