Social networking isn't for everybody, but all around the world people are having fun with this vehicle.
 Work at home moms and dads, work away from home moms and dads, kids and young adults...
all walks of life are using it to make new friends or get re-acquainted with old high school cronies.
 However, the main reason these social bookmarking websites are growing so rapidly is that Affiliate Marketers hope to catapult their internet business to the first page of Google.
Important tips to help you make money and have a good time: 1.
 Start small by signing up with just a few social networking sites and immediately complete your "Profile.
" This will help you brand yourself.
 Branding yourself and your business is a key factor in helping you be successful in the internet world.
Think about joining Facebook and Twitter, as they are taking the world by storm.
  Be friendly and develop relationships.
 It's critical that you don't immediately start pushing your products.
   Take the time to get to know people, share your beliefs and values.
 People like doing business with like-minded, friendly people.
2.
 A helpful tip to use before you start networking is to take some time and write down a few things about yourself.
 Include your dreams, passions, and anything you want to share about your family life.
Save these well thought out descriptions to a file on your computer and call it "Profile.
" Then, when you sign up with a social networking site, simply copy and paste.
Most social bookmarking sites ask for a screen name or user name.
 Be prepared.
 Consider if you wish to brand yourself or your business.
 If you decide to brand yourself, then use your own name.
 If not, use a name that best describes your business.
Another very significant item to keep in your "Profile" file is a photo of yourself that you would like the world to see.
 Nearly all social networking sites encourage you to include a photo.
 Keep in mind, your goal is to have your Profile be interesting enough that it motivates people to want to get to know you and visit your business website.
  3.
 Post to your social bookmarking sites at least once or twice per day.
 You may even think about starting your own "group" on Facebook.
  Facebook allows others to join your group.
This helps keep your name in the forefront of your fans, and Google, while also permitting you to concentrate on promoting the items that are dear to your heart.
  For instance, if you want to assist people who are living with HIV/Aids, you might start a group called 'Let's Help Win the Battle Against HIV/AIDS' or if you would like to keep Michael Jackson's memory alive, you may start a group called 'Michael Jackson Lives On in Our Hearts.
'  If your focus is on losing weight, why not start a 'Bust Your Gut Weight Loss' group? You'll be amazed at the huge number of Twitter Followers, Facebook Fans, and other members you have as a result.
Some of these people will click on your website just to see what you have to offer.
 They may intend to only browse your articles, but end up buying your products because they believe in you and your values.
 Conversely, you may take a look at their websites for the same reasons.
This is how social networking creates wealth.
So, what are you waiting for? Get on track today.
  Connect with social networking groups, have fun and flourish.
