Social Networking websites are here to stay
Social Networking websites are all the rage. These sites focus on building online communities of internet users who share similar activities and interests, or are interested in learning more. The most popular sites provide a variety of methods to interact with other users including email and instant messaging. Social networking has created new and better ways for internet users to communicate and share information. Social networking websites have quickly become an integral part of everyday life. The main types of social networking services are those which contain directories of a specific category (such as former classmates) or as a means to connect with friends (usually with self-created homepages). MySpace and Facebook are currently the most widely used social networking sites in North America and are also popular globally. Other high-traffic sites include LinkedIn, Flickr, YouTube and Classmates Online.
Facebook reports that Canada currently has seven million active users and a global total that doubles every six months. Obviously, this presents a real marketing opportunity for internet savvy advertisers to reach millions of potential customers. Social media offers a wealth of corporate branding benefits including spreading brand awareness in social networking websites, increased targeted traffic from social networking portals to your own website and improved search engine optimization resulting in increased website page ranking and link popularity.
