Facebook
I used to think Facebook was for those people who clearly had too much time on their hands, but it's time to change our thinking. There are many companies using Facebook to market and seeing success in doing so.
Consider the following:
According to the guys at SEO Sydney Blog, According to CheckFacebook.com, over 6.4 Million Australians use Facebook, which represent a huge 38.48% of the Australian online population and 2.46% of the global audience (261,807,120 users). In the world the Australian Facebook population ranks #8.
In terms of Facebook demographics, the Australian Facebook population is made of 55.6% of female and 44% of Male.
In terms age, Facebook remains a generation Y social network. The biggest segment is the 25-34 years old with 29.3% followed by the 18-24 with 28.8%.
The 35 years + segment currently accounts for 30.4% of the Australian Facebook population and is according to Nielsen Online, the fastest growing segment.
According to Facebook: Facts & Figures For 2010 , in February 2010, facebook had over 400 million active users worldwide. Compare that to January 2009 which saw 250 million users.
There are more than 100 million active users currently accessing facebook through their phones. See why you should build an iphone or smartphone friendly website.
So, let us set you up in Facebook (if you haven't already succumbed) and implement a step by step plan to get the most out of Facebook for your business.

Not sure what exactly Twitter is? According to Wikipedia "Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read messages known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to the author's subscribers who are known as followers."
By getting your business on Twitter, you can create a following of followers....
