Twitter and Facebook

I'm sure by now you have either gotten bit by the Twitter bug, or at least heard of it. Twitter is a great tool to help you promote your blog. By subscribing to Twitter, you can tweet about your blog and your recent posts. Someone is bound to read it, become interested, and begin reading your blog. Problogger, which I discussed before, also has some great tips on how you can use Twitter to promote your blog. I suggest you check this article out.

Facebook is also a great way to promote your blog too. I'm sure all of you have a Facebook page. If you don't, I really suggest you get one. It's another way to practice the growing trend of social media. You can advertise your blog in your bio and also post status updates when you write a new post on your blog. There is a great list of tips on using Facebook to promote your blog that I found on a blog titles Now Sourcing. This is also a great blog to look at just because it focuses strictly on using new forms of social media.
