We all love to use facebook. Nowadays its like part and parcel of our daily life to check new notification, friends requests in facebook. Facebook made this big world into a little ball which you can hold in your hand. I think facebook made a revolution in Social networking, despite its greedy executives and filthy rich CEO, Mark Zuckerberg. Everyday its adding new features to attract its users and to give its users new taste of socialism. I love almost every features of facebook except the new timeline tweak. I don't know I just feel annoyed when I see someone timeline. Maybe its awkward for me but many users still like it. But I decided to take it out of my facebook account and I found this Facebook Timeline Remove 0.8.2 !. Its really working and I feel great with it. I'd recommend it to all the facebook users who don't like facebook time. Thanks.

I feel FB is better. Facebook allows you to set up a personal profile, a professional profile, a business page or a fan page. You have all kinds of choices for putting yourself and your business in front of your customers. People like to feel part of a business. You can enable that by setting up a fan page for your business or for a unique product that you offer.

John, great article I don’t promote Facebook at all. I guess I should, but I haven’t done it. Perhaps I’ll eventually get around to making another Facebook account that’s not associated with my personal one. That’s mainly for family, and friends that have found me from the 80′s, heh. now granted I wish some of those folks never found me, which might explain why I’m rarely on my personal FB page anymore.

Twitter I like, but need to read about more, I mainly use it to promote my friends stuff. I rarely use it to promote my own things, silly I know but I always feel odd linking to my own things.

The past few years I took a break from personal blogging and just focused on my niche websites. Initially I was disappointed, because I felt so many people that were all about the links and not by the folks behind the blog. However, that changed when discovered BloggerLuv and SITS. To be honest I spend a heck of a lot more time at BloggerLUV though, simply because I like the sense of community.

I’m a new member to BloggerLuv, but am really enjoying the sense of community I’m experiencing there. For myself, that’s what blogging is about. Recognizing there are real people behind those blogs, treating them respectfully, and wanting to get to know the blogger behind the blog.

Sorry for the ramble…

John, you got it right. Facebook is a waste of time unless you are looking to gossip and troll. For me its about cost/benefit. The cost of Facebook (time wise) is high and the benefit is low. I maintain a Facebook account to keep up with my real friends. I do aggregate my Blog content via RSS to my Wall and I pick up a few clicks here and there.

A blog post that scores high in organic search will gain 100 visitors a day. That same post on Facebook might gain 100 visitors for the life. The math is easy to work out.

I might be wrong, but my own guess is that it is probably to build a network with both Twitter and Facebook before doing considerable promotion. Of course you should have a link to your site, and maybe something about what you do in your profile, but it’s really the numbers of engaged users willing to spread your message that make both Twitter and Facebook worthwhile.

On either network, it depends who wants to talk to you.

John can certainly help with a number of those issues. My two cents about Facebook are above – if you have a large following there, that can be used to your advantage.

I confess I know next to nothing about tweeting, except that it isn’t too hard to find good twitter friends if you use the hashtags, and with that small community getting linked back to shouldn’t be too hard (yes, I’ve done this before. I stopped because Twitter got uber-annoying),

Yeah, web designers have talked to me about that – static web pages are much more in fashion with search engines than blogs. Blogs have exploded, and it is very difficult for a search engine to tell which ones are good and which ones are bad.

I use both twitter and Facebook but I’ve had both of these accounts for less than 30 days so I’m not sure which will produce better results. I use WordPress to publish my blog and downloaded 2 separate plugins that automatically update both twitter and Facebook for me every time I post. That feature makes having both accounts hassle free.
