We can tell you what works and what does not!

Social Networking means exactly the same thing online as it does offline. It is a social structure made up of relationships and links, whether strong or weak, to people we have something in common with. Apply this to the web and you have a series of websites where people gather to interact with other like-minded individuals.

Just like offline social networking people are given a forum where they have the opportunity to meet others in a familiar environment, to chat, participate in events, combine temporarily to form sub-networks, create private networks or interact in public networks.

Twitter has fast become one of the most visited social media websites on the Internet, with astonishing growth rates year upon year. The uptake of Twitter has been so significant that Google, Bing and Yahoo have now integrated Twitter results in their main search engine rankings.

Twitter provides an additional channel for communicating and building relationships with your prospects and customers. Because Twitter messages are short they can easily be read on mobile phones which means that your company's ´followers´ can read your Tweets while doing almost anything - it´s a quick, easy and cost effective and way to stay in touch with your customers wherever they are.
