A funny sort of thing happens when you get online in the morning or evening, you begin to simply lose track of time. It happens to the best of us - even me! Whether it's checking my mail or posting on Social sites, I seem to lose track of time and before I know it, 2 hours has passed! In order to make the best of your time online, especially when it comes to marketing your website on Social Networking sites like Twitter and Facebook is to have a schedule!

You can either do this schedule by yourself, post the updates yourself, etc. Or you can get someone to do it for you if you do need to do more important things. Here are a few other tactics and tricks you can follow along with:

- First off, find a social site that works the best for you. I know I know. Twitter and Facebook are the "IT" sites right now. But, sometimes you might want to take a look at other websites as well - ones that are less saturated. Twitter has around 6 million users and Facebook has around 600 Million. Some of which have double, triple or quadruple accounts! If you are posting daily on Twitter and Facebook and you aren't seeing any results.

For example, PartnerUp has a mere 150,000 users. Ryze has 500,000. MeetTheBoss has 350,000. These are GREAT numbers. Check out this comprehensive list of Social Networking sites for more info.

- Back to the scheduling! It's really important that you post at various times during the day so that its NOT the same old same old. But, it's also good that you don't go overboard. No sense in sitting there for hours on end. Besides, you and I both know what happens when you go on Facebook or Twitter to "update", you see you have 24 invitations, you have 31 Private Messages and you have an accumulation of various people replying to your old updates from today, last week, last month, etc. These people that are replying to you - should be replied BACK to you. Prospective customers! It's a good idea to pick a day to post, a day to send/reply to messages, and a day to reply/comment on people's/your own posts.

- Use various companies to save yourself time! Time is of the essence ladies and gents. There are only 24 hours in a day sadly. If you are an important higher up in your company, the last thing you should be doing is posting updates at 3am in the morning. Get someone else to do it for you. They can say everything you want them to say, include keywords, links, etc. Paying someone to do this for you is actually NOT all that expensive. In the near future we plan to offer a Social Networking service on a ala carte package.

- Social Networking - We have three smaller packages for the Social Networking. This will get you posts on Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, Google Buzz, and SMS (non-spam). These will be spread out over a months time. The post will contain a little snippet (whatever you want). Along with your URL.

The first option is 10 posts a month. We will charge $10 for this option.

The second option is 20 posts a month. We will charge $20 for this option.

The third option is 30 posts a month. We will charge $30 for this option.

That is pretty darn inexpensive for what you get. It's not only about WHAT you get, but what you will be doing instead of piddling around on sites like Twitter and LinkedIn! Use your time wisely.

- Be Patient!: Remember, as with most things on the Internet, it takes time. Nothing happens over night, I don't care who says it does. Building relationships, building your brand, and building traffic - happens with time. Get to know the people you are meeting on these social sites.

They, like you, are selling something. If you can get them to see that you are not only a person behind a computer, they just might take a second to see if YOU, your product or YOUR service can help them. If you just post post post, people are just going to feel like you are selling them.
