Posted:  24 Oct 2007 23:23 Registered User Currently Offline Posts:  14 Join Date: Oct 2007 I think it really just depends on what you are trying to use it for. What types of classified ads did you post, and what was the purpose of the blogs? I believe that the main reason why it is such a a worthwhile means of marketing is due to the fact that many people have the potential of seeing it. You can also make friends with people on Myspace, etc. who will then see your service, and the more people you add as friends, the more people know you and what you're doing.

Yes, there's lots of people but that also means they have a gazillion other people's profiles to look at apart from yours. Your time would probably be better spent finding a niche forum/group (if possible) that attracts people interested in the area your product or service relates to, and building yourself up there by genuinely helping out and getting to know people. Trust and respect take time to earn but is worth the effort when next time they need something that you can provide, you're the first one they think of to ask. Just an opinion.

There are definite results to be found in social networking, but maybe MySpace isn't the one for you.
