For online marketing or any kind of online business (in general), traffic is like oxygen. Most of my articles speak about traffic….with my experience here are a few points about “Making Cash With social Marketing”. You can consider these points as tips.

1. Start Blogging – Blogging is not a new concept, but still blogging is alive and well! It continues to be a great way to get interactively connected with your customers. Blogging is about creating conversations and joining others in progress. Blog an open diary through which, you can share every thing. Now coming to making money with blog depends on how much amount of time you invest. How much time you invest in your blog is up to you, but you’ll get out what you put in. You don’t have to drive yourself crazy putting in daily entries, but you should establish a regular schedule for your blog updates. Otherwise, when people check your blog they’ll see the same-old/same-old so often that they’ll stop visiting your site… NO visitors, NO money!!!!

Once you have created your blog and posted some entries, then start monetizing your blog!
Now what is monetizing is all about?
Monetizing a blog means adding money making factors to the blog. The better you do this, the more money you earn!

Take time to read what others in your industry are saying. Get in on the discussion by posting your comments on other blogs. It’s free, and again, the amount of time you invest can bring some very big returns. The beauty of blog posts is that you add your name and URL when leaving a comment. This is a great way to build links and improve your link popularity.

2. Answer at Yahoo Answers – There’s one thing you have to provide that no one else does – your expertise. If you have a service-based business, your knowledge is your #1 marketing tool. Yahoo Answers is a great place for you to hammer away at prospects. Imagine being the go-to person that people seek out. That’s who you’ll be at Yahoo Answers.

3. Get Into the Movie Business – Upload your videos to a unique page on your website or add them to your blog page. But don’t stop there! YouTube is the most obvious – and the most active – sharing destination. And there are so many others. Just nose around the web and you’ll find them.

4. Don’t Wait To Visit StumbleUpon.com – There are many so-called ‘discovery’ type sites in social marketing. The best-known are Digg, Reddit, and Netscape, but they’re also a bit complicated. StumbleUpon requires the lowest time investment. The site’s functionality makes it much quicker and easier to join groups related to your industry and add friends from those groups.

Once you’ve joined and created your lists, you can start to upload “sticky” (appealing to visitors) content and before you know it, other users will “stumble upon” what you’ve added. That’s when the “magic begins”. When visitors give your pages good feedback, your content is shown to even more users.
You can’t sell your product or service on StumbleUpon. The benefit it offers is increased traffic, which can lead to increased profíts. Those profíts are just a click away because your site is just a click away. Think of StumbleUpon as a way to raise awareness, Blog readership, grow subscribers, etc… all of which ultimately feed into your profit stream.

5. Join Up – A HUGE part of social marketing is detective work. You need to find your customers where they like to hang out. Well, if your customers are like most people on the planet, it’s pretty likely that they hang out at Yahoo Groups or Google Groups to share interests and opinions.
Fetch, Marketer! Go get those prospects.
Like Flickr, the groups at Yahoo and Google are organised into interest-based lists. When you join the lists and discussions, you can provide your expertise (there’s that word again) and become a trusted member of the community… the person that other people will want to do business with. There’s no better outcome to marketing than that!

So stop dreaming and start marketing… socially.
