Facebook is an excellent way to share your information because you can create a Facebook page that targets your audience. It’s not hard to do and you can put a widget right on your website, so people can stay updated with your posts while on Facebook. People can re-share your information from your blog posts, and it’s a great way to get a lot of traffic.

Twitter is another outlet that’s great for social marketing. You can get directly in contact by tweeting and direct messaging your followers. Also, you can use hash tags as a way to make your post cater to an audience. For example, if someone were to put a hash tag in the search slot on twitter, they’ll most likely find your post and click the link.

You can create video logs (vlogs) on sites like Twitter and Vimeo, build subscribers and embed the link under the video or on your channel for promoting.

One way, is to just go on forums catered to your niche. If you are rather engaging with your conversations, constantly talking in forums and giving good tips and information, people will want to know about your business. You can also leave a signature that backlinks to your webpage. When you have things you want to sell or share with people, they’ll be more enticed to look at what you have to say.

Also, blog commenting is a good way to get free advertising. People will follow your blog or subscribe to your blog, that way you have a more significant way of building traffic. Also, you may have the chance of creating a joint venture with another blogger, so it’s a win win for both.

A really nice way of advertising is by using free web press release sites and article directories. They usually have good rankings on the search engine which creates a lot of traffic.

The easiest way to control spam in the forum is to moderate the posts. Perhaps you could have all of your new members moderated for a certain amount of time until you know that they are legitimately there to participate in the forum. There are normally posting settings in the administrator controls that will allow you to moderate new members.

Captcha is another excellent way to stop spammers. You can install some kind of captcha widget that will make the person decipher and enter a code before he, she, or it is allowed to post. If it is a bot, it will not be able to enter the code. Installing some kind of filtering system may also work. If you can set a specific time between posts, that would deter the people who want to post the same information over and over again.
