Are there any people out there who might be considered knowledgeable in matters of SEO, Internet Marketing or Social Media/Social Networking and often find themselves getting laughed at when they try to explain Facebook, Linkedin, Blogging and especially Twitter to others!? I am one such person and I’ve witnessed others on the receiving end of this too.
I can maybe understand people laughing at Twitter with all it’s funny acronyms – Tweet, Twitterer, Twits, etc..but I’ve been trying to figure out why people’s eyes glaze over when you start talking about this stuff in general and why they think you’re joking when you say this is probably the most important thing you can do to promote your Website/Business at the minute.
My best guess is that the amount of information you often need to convey about how to use each service/site and exactly what it all means and what it can do for people is just overwhelming to the listener and they can’t fathom where to begin or where they’ll find the time to do it all.
So they laugh out loud in frustration!
If you are one such person who doesn’t get it and who laughs at us poor nerds thinking we know it all, then please don’t and here’s a simple definition of what we’re all talking about when we mention “Social Media Marketing”:
Social Media Marketing means making friends online through various different websites with the ultimate aim of letting as many people as possible know about your product or service.
Nothing funny about that!?

Nice Way of Looking at the Whole Social Media Thing. It’s Very Hard understand how to use it.Twitter you have to Catch People’s Attention in 140 characters but leave room for a Retweet.
