Social Networking

Social Networking / Social Media Marketing (SMM), or Web2.0 generally involves a website where individuals or organizations can connect and communicate via interaction with the site’s various protocols. Social networking usually involve a user profile that is visible to other users that have been granted permission to the profile.

Individuals can benefit from social networking by connecting with old schoolmates, friends, or business contacts who would otherwise be difficult to locate because of time or distance. Businesses can benefit from social media marketing by creating remote pages/profiles of their company advertising their products and services to attract potential prospects from the social networking site, and drive more traffic and sales to their website.
