You can launch a social media campaign to increase your SEO and to increase your brand recognition. There are a lot of free tools that can help you and some of them can even earn you money! These sites can help you get noticed by people interested in buying your product and they can help you get indexed in the search engines for your targeted keywords and phrases. Don’t underestimate the power of social network marketing in terms of building your brand and increasing the amount of inbound traffic to your websites.

Let’s look at seven things you can do to use social media to your advantage!

1. Online video marketing. Video marketing is a great tool for marketing online. People love videos and it can really grab someone’s attention while letting you speak directly to someone. Injecting your personality into your marketing efforts makes you more believable and people trust faces much more than they trust words on a page.

2. Create some buzz marketing through lifestreaming tools like Twitter, FriendFeed, Plurk, and others by linking to your site and blogs.

3. Social bookmarking on sites like Digg, Yahoo Buzz, StumbleUpon, Mixx, Reddit, and others similar sites.

4. Write articles for article directories with a link back to your website. Presell people in those articles.

5. Create a HubPage about your niche and link to your main site with relevant keywords. Don’t forget to social bookmark your HubPage!
