Understanding SMO & Social Marketing

[Lynn Terry]

For the last year or so I have been watching the Social Marketing or New Media trend from behind the scenes, and simply putting it off and continuing on with my work. I don’t want you to make that same mistake – if you’re not already heavily involved with Social Marketing then NOW is the time to do that.

You may be like me – thinking this is just one more thing you don’t have time for, or something that’s just going to be an addictive time suck instead of a productive marketing strategy. But done right, this is the key to becoming or staying successful in online business as the internet evolves – and it’s evolving as we speak.

SMO stands for Social Media Optimization:

Social media optimization (SMO) is a set of methods for generating publicity through social media, online communities and community websites. Methods of SMO include adding RSS feeds, adding a "Digg This" button, blogging and incorporating third party community functionalities like Flickr photo slides and galleries or YouTube videos. Social media optimization is a form of search engine marketing.

Does the Socialmediadaily.com link work? I've sent a couple requests to get the info, but haven't received the email yet anywhere. Or is it just that slow?

[stevecm59]

Been a week, nobody know about the link or is it just old? Haven't received the information yet.
