I like the idea of being connected… Anyway I also experienced getting lost and ‘using up’ a lot of time with social networking. It think the trick is to find the right balance of being connected and finding room for other activities…

Penny,
Certainly. I’m blogging and engaged in social media to meet people and build relationships. And then I help nurture how the relationships wan to organically grow. Could lead to friendship, could lead to business, could lead to sharing knowledge, could lead to… – doesn’t matter to me. What matters is the relationship.

Buy,
I could be like talk radio – just that you, as the reader and the blog owner, get to also be the radio station owner and program manager.

Dawud,
I like how you respond to people that comment on your blog. I also appreciate that I’ve gotten quite a few emails from you and you took the time to drag one of my comments from the dreaded spam que. Somehow, you’ve become a friend. Thanks!

Dean,
As we all do.

My kids are younger - oldest of three having just turned 4.

Fatherhood is pretty amazing, huh?

Hi Dawud,

Yes, everything in it’s time and place. I just got to remember to take it one day at a time and one post at a time.

My son is 8 and my daughter is 11. Really good kids.

Have a great day.

Dean,
Everything has its place, that’s for sure. How old are your kids?

Wow, glad I found this post.

I felt so overwhelmed at the prospect of meeting so many people through social netowrking, but the comments about just taking it slow and making connections put me at ease.

(deep breath)

Aw, that’s better.

Now I guess I can handle my full-time job, overtime, custody of my kids 3 nights a week, writing, social networking and looking for commercial real estate to invest in.

That feels much better.

TEIA, By setting limits on how much time I spend with social media in the first place. Without limits, I could never get my client work done. You can always contact me if you'd like to work on a social media workflow that fits your needs and schedule.

How do you find the balance between ‘connecting’ and creating?

RickNHS,
That’s great. I’ll experiment a bit with it myself and maybe have a few clients give it a whirl. Thanks, again.

Your welcome! I’m not too sure how SocialMarker has helped my presence on the bookmarking sites themselves, as I’m still trying to figure all that out. But I can generally count on an extra 20 – 30 visitors (quality visitors, not bouncers), throughout the day, after submitting a good article.

RickNHS,
It is a great tool. Thanks for the suggestion. How has it helped you increase exposure in social bookmarking sites beyond just submission?

I’m looking forward to reading Liz’s response to your question at the end there! I wonder the same thing, too! She must not sleep I love how you and Liz and a few other hosts make me feel when I comment–like I am important and you want to hear what I have to say. It’s great! It’s why I keep returning eager for more. It’s the connection!

I’ve just recently learned to appreciate the value of social bookmarking sites. I’ve generated a significant amount of traffic to my various websites and blogs thanks to them. SocialMarker.com is a great tool for submitting to bookmarking sites. I recommend you blog masters check it out!

Joanna,
I’ve not used Twitter in a while. I got lost with it last year and spent too much time. I’ll revisit it soon, I know. Thanks for the suggestion.

And you’re right, we shouldn’t go into any of these social circles expecting anything. Be open and friendly and make room for people to be friendly back. Give first…

Living Room,
Thanks. And I can do more. Just need more time.

Bert,
Exactly. Everything has to be in balance. And since I advise small businesses, and specifically service providers, it’s important to not loose track of your business goals. Blogging and other forms of social media, if done during business hours, should, at the very least, subtilely promote your business.
