Social Media is an integral part of today’s society. Facebook, Google +, Twitter, Foursquare, MySpace, Flickr, YouTube … the list goes on, but what are they to your business?

Here are some statistics from Facebook:

• Facebook has over 800 million active users.
• More than 400 million log on a day.
• 75% of Facebook’s users are outside of the United States.
• Over 350 million users access Facebook from a mobile device.
• The average user is connected to 80 pages/groups/events.
• There are more than 2 billion likes and comments on posts per day.

Facebook is just one of the many Social Media Platforms, and with a potential user-base of 800 million, you would be silly not to use it as a potential advertising source. Best of all it’s free!

However Facebook is just one platform, Twitter also has a huge following made popular by a number of high profile celebrities using it. There are other mobile location-based tools such as Foursquare, Facebook Places and even the new platform Google+ is gaining momentum.

Simply having a presence on these platforms isn’t enough nowadays – to get the best results you need to be active and keep drawing your users back. Investing the time and effort into creating and improving your online presence may just be one of the smartest things you do for your company. Interested in improving your social media profile?
