Lately I've been spending some time trying to figure out how to be bit more efficient with my online sphere of influence/marketing. I just read a post by Erica McClenny titled
Google + Tweets+ Local Info = BUSINESS for me!
and this got me thinking about another post I had read not that long ago by Cheryl Johnson
Facebook: Business Pages
You might be wondering how the two are tied together. I'm going to tell you. When you create a Facebook page for business (this is separate from your personal page) it allows you to have a page solely focused on real estate, lending, property management, (insert whatever you do). This helps me keep from spamming the living you know what out of my other Facebook friends.
Note: I still post Real Estate info on my main page from time to time just to stay infront of the 500+ people who view my page.
Now in my title and in Erica's post she makes reference to Google's search engine picking up twitter - SWEET MORE GOOGLE JUICE.
Here is a link to the Twitter group here at AR
Take what you need from the above group. Some love twitter some hate it, but lets be honest it's probably here to stay and if it's here we may as well find a way to use it.
I'm personally a Facebook guy. I don't use twitter much at all, but there is a way to use both without visiting another site. I created a Facebook page. Now Facebook will allow your business page posts to automatically transfer to twitter. So your posts go to two locations and you only have to enter them once. Since google already picks up Facebook business pages, and according to Erica's post will now be searching twitter there is a great opportunity for more web exposure.
Lets say you write an AR blog. You go to your facebook business page, post the link to your blog on AR for your fans. That post goes to twitter for your followers. Maybe post it to your main facebook page if its a good topic. You've now put your blog all over the web and all you had to do was write a blog at AR and post a link on Facebook.
Google is able to search all of this different avenues to find your well written blog on an interesting local topic or valuable professional opinion on a often searched topic.
Figured I'd share this as a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
