Do SMO bring more traffic

Today I am going to write about one of the most interesting topics. It is about Social Media Optimization or SMO. SMO is the newly generated term in the field of search engine marketing and promotion. SMO is all about promoting your websites and blogs through Social Medias on net like RSS feeds videos and photo sharing, forums, social networking sites as facebook and social bookmarking sites as addthis. Biggest advantage of SMO is that it makes a way to mouth publicity where you are promoting not through friends or family but through the use of networking.

Forums: In this, you have to participate by answering question and asking some. Always add your blog or website URL at the bottom of your message as signature. Forums help you to bring quality traffic i.e. interested visitors. Participate in those forums which are related to your site or blog content. You can search for forums by putting a search in search engines.

Social Networking Sites: You can easily sign up in these sites and become a member. Search out for the group in these sites which matches your blog or website. Join as much group as you can. Keep talking to people and promote your site and blog there.

Social Bookmarking Sites: These are the sites by which you can add a button of bookmark or RSS feed, on your blog or website so that people, who are users of these sites, can bookmark your site to stay updated with content and coming back to your site or blog without any problem. This simply increases your number of loyal visitors and hence money. I have explained earlier in my post about RSS feeds.

Audio/video/photo sharing: You can share all this media content through websites like picasa

Here is the list of social networking sites that you can use to understand more.
