MySpace

Pros of MySpace MySpace is a great way to meet new people. You can add anyone you want to onto your social networking profile. There are people all over the world in the MySpace community, so it is easy to find those who share common interests. There are a lot of ways to enjoy yourself on MySpace. There are plenty of games and a lot of music for anyone to enjoy. When MySpace first established itself, new artists would constantly upload their music onto music profiles that they would build for themselves. Many would even be picked up by record labels. For those who find it hard to connect with the people they are surrounded by, they can turn to MySpace for friends and people to talk to. Many people find it difficult to make friends, yet when they have a MySpace profile it gives them a chance to connect with others with ease. They can hide behind a computer screen and yet talk and play games with others.

Google+

Easy to Use: Google+’s clear, clutter-free user interface makes using the tool easy. This is an essential point since ultimately your time needs to be spent well, especially if you are wearing many hats as a small business owner. Segmented Audiences: Circles provide an easy way to share content among segments of your audience (partners, employees, customers, etc.) This can be helpful as a central place to connect with both internal employees and everyone outside your business. For small businesses that don’t have or can’t afford to build and manage a separate intranet, or for small businesses whose employees are all virtual, this could provide a nice solution for that. Fast Setup: There is nothing to customize or design, so you can be up and running very quickly. This is a stark difference between Google+ and Facebook, where fan pages are essentially miniature websites that benefit from programming and design

Tweeter

Twitter Pros Twitter is massive. Even if you are a small business with a very unique niche, Twitter is big enough that you can find an audience. Every tweet goes to your followers. On Facebook, each post you make only goes out to some of your fans because of Facebook’s algorithm. On Twitter, unless you tweet directly to someone, each and every tweet goes to all of your followers. Tweets are easy to create. While many brands share links to longer content, a simple tweet takes less than a minute to write and send, but can still be very effective. During the Super Bowl power outage, Oreo’s “You can still dunk in the dark” tweet generated over 15,000 retweets. You can get to the point. Since you are limited to 140 characters, you need to get to the point. On Twitter, you should still be polite, but you can be more direct than on other platforms.

Linkedin

Pros of using LinkedIn Search Engine Exposure- If someone uses Google to search for you they are taken to your LinkedIn page and can find your business.

Facebook

Enhances social skills.

Facebook allows kids to keep up with current friends and make new ones. When used in the right way, social media can increase a child’s self-esteem and help them feel less isolated, as if they belong to a group. Facebook also allows those who are shy or have trouble making friends to socialize more easily. And let’s face it – everybody’s on it….

It’s easy!

Setting up a profile is a smooth process, and the relatively uncluttered UI of the site is easy to navigate and use. It’s free and all you need is an internet connection and any device that can connect to the internet, mobile phones included.
