I wanted to start a collaborative blog project and have been asked by lots of people over the lastw eek about writing great content and the best way to go about doing that. I have compiled a list that is based on my own experience and may not work for everybody in the audience but the idea is to get a series of blog posts out of this and then have us all share the feedback and see how we can improve each other’s blogs in the process. The idea is that we all create some of our best work and take our blogs to the next level and really make them shine and stand out. See how you get on with your blog…
When you’re working in social media, as any walk of life, you need to ask yourself why you’re doing something. You need to set out clear goals at the start of the campaign so that your work has focus and you can see if it’s working for you. If you don’t know why you’re doing something, the chances are you’ll get lost.

The old story of the perfect romance doesn’t apply anymore. Thanks to the tools of social media, the way we date has changed massively, showing just how powerful social media really is.

Starting a blog and getting traffic to it is one of the hardest things that you can do as no matter how good the content is at the start you can often wonder why people are not reading your great posts and most people give up. This post will share some tips on how to build your audience from the very start and how to get a couple of hundred people reading and crucially sharing your content from day one.
What is the value in sharing content and when does it become too much? There are now endless options for sharing content – almost too many. But what is the point in this? Is it actually helping you to reach new audiences? Making content shareable is something that has to be done smartly, not just for the sake of it.
Facebook fan pages are the perfect tool for brands to engage in social media and one of the most important tools on Facebook are photos aand more importantly tagging people in photos and allowing users to tag their own photos on Facebook fan pages.
