There are Four Important CON's of Social Media.

Social Media is even helping websites morph into social media web sites but you have to pay particular attention to the CONS of Social Media as you bring them into your website.

1. CONtent - It is important to have great compelling content. Information people can use and not just selling but informative content that your audience would be interested in.

2. CONsistency - most people are using multiple forms of social media and you must make the commitment to post on the different platforms AND post consistently. It's OK if not everyday but make a plan to post regularly and not just off and on.

3. CONversation - It's important to have great conversation with the content you put out. It's even better if people are having great conversation between themselves as a result of what your talking about.

4. CONversion - Once you start communicating great content consistently, you will be able to start working in conversion for the sale.

How many PRO's can you come up with social media -- whether it be Active Rain, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn and . . .

Scott - these are such important things to keep in mind, and you presented them in such a clever way. Kinda important for our blogging, too, especially the first two.
