This was brought up by a colleague of mine that I had absolutely no idea how many people are taken for a ride on the web with the social media stuff.
We were discussing most items for sale on social tools are all ready available for free, we just have not been educated on where they are nor do we sometimes know what we are looking for. So taking some time does have benefit. One application I found on a paid site was something on facebook.
I must say, facebook have spelt this out clearly as to what they have. They have provided a comprehensive look at Social Plug-ins for businesses and blogs or personal use. Also the mobile applications are huge, this is big money too.
For Social Plugins, the list we found today at no cost are these:
|
The Like button lets users share pages from your site back to their Facebook profile with one click. |
 The Activity Feed plugin shows users what their friends are doing on your site through likes and comments. |
 The Recommendations plugin gives users personalized suggestions for pages on your site they might like. |
 The Like Box enables users to like your Facebook Page and view its stream directly from your website. |
 The Login Button shows profile pictures of the user’s friends who have already signed up for your site in addition to a login button. |
 The registration plugin allows users to easily sign up for your website with their Facebook account. |
 The Facepile plugin displays the Facebook profile pictures of users who have liked your page or have signed up for your site. |
 The Live Stream plugin lets your users share activity and comments in real-time as they interact during a live event.
|
They are quite a few to get you started for the facebook area, and hooking up your blog or website. What I am finding by the social scenes is we are only limited by one thing.
Our Creativity.
