As I delve further and further into the Social Media realm, it has become harder for me to keep up and harder for me to stay organized. Needless to say, my desktop is a mess. I have icon’s coming out of my ears. So I wanted to post some pointers for the Blogger, to help manage your Social Media.
One of the first things that you should do, when setting up your Blog, is to squirrel away all of your usernames and passwords on a Spread-Sheet and keep it on a thumb-drive. It might really help if you do this alphabetically, too.
Keeping a log of all the passwords and usernames, and the time you want to visit these sites will prove to be a real asset. Get on a schedule: not minute by minute of course, but if your habit is to visit your community of Blogs in the morning, set aside a few minutes to Tweet, and do the Facebook thing, to Digg and Stumbleupon; whatever it is that you Stumbleupon! Now that you’ve “Reddit” do it!
Social Media does not come naturally to me. I’ve had to take it a step at a time. With all the choices, and with my schedule, I just can’t do them all. I dare say, that if you had 24 hours in a day you couldn’t really put a dent in all of the super Social Media Sites. I’m finding more great ones everyday. The greatest challenge of course is not setting aside the time to visit and participate, rather dealing with the learning curve that goes along with some of these sites. It’s best to take it slow like I did, adding one a month and really getting to know it well.
Lastly, don’t forget to Google for pointers on any Social Media site that you participate in. You can find some real gold out there that will make life as a Blogger much easier!
