Social Bookmarking?

I have a Twitter site... no idea what to put there. I have some random blurbs about coupon codes and the company description, etc. Any other ideas? Secrets to using Twitter for marketing?

I also have a Digg submission, as well as Stumbleupon. Digg has gotten a few hits, Stumbleupon a bit more. Are there secrets to using these?

To use Twitter for marketing you need lots of followers. And you need to post interesting tweets. If you just market then no-one will be interested.

Social Bookmarking?

Social Bookmarking is also a very good way for promotion. We are using Digg, delicious, twitter etc. Few websites give dofollow and few of them give nofollow links.

You need to have a clear idea about twitter. Why twitter is made? Twitter is like a sms service to a group of people whom u know and the people who want to know u or ur thoughts. That means that tweets has to be interesting and knowledgeable. U can promote ur self through tweets. Peoples keeps following u if u tweet well.

I think the thing people do not realize about social media is that you should not use it as 'sales media'. Imagine that Twitter and Facebook are doors to someone's house. Do you think you would get a great response from someone if you knocked on their door and said,"Hey I'm with business Acme, and have we got a deal for you! We have coupons right now..."

I think that's where business are missing the mark. You have to remember that it's social media and that you really need to think about looking from the outside in. Find ways to engage those prospective clients, and create a conversation with them. Otherwise you are just forcing your services/products down their throats and no one likes that.

There's a good right up about this that I wish I could link to, but devshed is blocking me from including URLs at the moment. Just signed up. sigh.

With the information about your business put information about other things regarding your business, perhaps links to different news sites and try to attract people in this way.
