FWIW, I’ve found Plurk to be far more effective at driving traffic to my pages than Twitter, and better for just making basic connections with people.
I haven’t checked out Virb, Linkedin, or Ryze, but I’ll look into them. Thanks for pointing us that way.
I’ve Twitter and LinkedIn, So I’ll sign up to others two.
Thanks for the info.
I love your site and available themes. I’m in the process of starting a new blog and your themes have helped a lot, although I’m still in the process adjusting them (with very little knowledge). Anyway, I’m now following you on twitter. Feel free to follow back. http://twitter.com/Jeaa.
BTW, do you do personalized web design (for blogs) for a small fee by any chance?
I have the same opinion as you Ashley since long time I have avoid the thousands of invitations I receive from my friends, but finally a couple of months ago finally I sing on Facebook just because has an app. for iPhone. I’m thinking to join to twitter but I prefer to still wait.
Actually, I read a recent article which said that a lot of sites were reporting more traffic from Facebook than Google. I’ll have to find the link. But several major sites showed numbers like FB 8.6 percent to Goog 7.8 percent. Not huge margins. But I’ve never had a social network edge out Google and other search engine traffic before.
Especially now with their redone public profile style pages, I suggest you set one up for Upstart Blogger, or for your music, and see how well it works. I’m having lots of fun and good results from experimenting with the “viral” properties of Facebook.
