A few weeks ago I was interviewed by Dan Naumovich of the State Journal register in Springfield, IL.  The article was printed yesterday, in the paper, and it can also be viewed online at the above link. The topic of the article is different ways small business owners can use Twitter to market their business.

The main goal for my clients using Twitter is to show a human side of their business. I recommend NOT blasting out self promoting links in excess, but instead just introducing yourself, being social, and contributing meaningful information, humorous tweets, and a mixture of helpful links, conversation with followers, and [sparingly] alerting followers to any special sales promotions you might be running. This is a nice way to join the Twitter bandwagon without being one of the ‘bad guys’.

Social Media Expert Directory

Click the above link to see my profile…

This was started by an acquaintance I met on Facebook.  It is a community of social media experts. It is a young site, so it is still growing.  But if you have interest in seo or Social Media, it would be a good place to start your search for a qualified professional, or to join in discussions about web promotion.  It is a nice site because the aim is not for people to make sales pitches. But there are several qualified professionals on the site.
