Yes, you have to be careful with social networking as it can be very time consuming, but that time is worth it if you are building solid connections with people that can take your efforts to the next level. There is no doubt that you cannot reach everyone in the world alone, but via social networks it is possible, just have to get people on your side.

As for the Apps and all the junk on Facebook, I don't mess with any of that. I just network and follow up with connections that I am making and try to keep it moving.

There are some very good software and sites that you can use to make social networking more effective and less time consuming. I will share those in a future post for everyone to see and share their resources.

Good to meet you and hope to interact much more with you.

But you are right with the interaction. You have to build a relationship with people through conversation and interaction, not just links to your sites. I have seen some people be very success with sending links to relevant resources and tips that are not just theirs.

For example @BloggingTips on Twitter does this. He sends out link after link of articles and resources that he has found on the Internet that will help his following. This has created quite a stream of trust from his followers because they know that he has their best interest at heart. It is a good strategy to first seek to help others be the best they can.

Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to building with you!
