The Importance of Complete Profiles in Social Media Sites.

The Importance of Complete Profiles in Social Media Sites.

The first module of the Starr Hall Online Social Media Marketing Course directs the student to the importance of having complete and up to date profiles on the most important Social Media sites like Linked-In, Facebook and Twitter. I have revisited these often overlooked areas and brought my profiles up to date. Starr Hall gives advice also as to how search engines will pick up on key words and where they should be included.

An unexpected bonus already happened when I revisited my Internations profile, for the first time in many months. I had forgotten to change details to my present country of location. Soon after doing this I received an invitation for a face to face social event of members in Malta, and spent an enjoyable three hours one afternoon, a public holiday, chatting with other members at the outside tables of a café / restaurant near to the sea, and of course networking.

I have also increased my twitter followers by following the suggested actions, and realise the importance of regular tweets.

This is all putting the infrastructure in place from which a social marketing campaign can begin. That will happen in future modules of the course.

Back to work…..
