Looking Out From the Garage: So many Social Networks... I'll show you mine

So many Social Networks... I'll show you mine

So, I announced a while ago that I was building a Social Networking Strategy.  Well, part of that strategy is integrating all of the various networks so that consumers can follow me from one to another.  If they find me on Twitter, I want them to know about my blog.  If they find me on YouTube, I want them to know how to catch me on Twitter.  If they find my blog, I want them to be able to catch my channel on YouTube... 

So, to that end, here are all of my Social Media outlets, with commentary:

  • ActiveRain.  User: LaneBailey.  My blog is called Looking out from the garage and I am on there just about every day. 
  • YouTube.  User: LaneOnRock.  My channel has almost nothing to do with real estate... but there are some fun videos.  I need to spend some more time surfing videos... and I'm going to call it work ;^D
  • EzineArticles.  User: Lane_Bailey.  I have a few articles published.  I probably have a bunch of other blog posts that could be worked over... I haven't been active there for a while. 
  • Squidoo.  Lens: Garage Homes.  I would recommend taking 30 minutes and setting up a lens (page) and then letting it ride.  Being more active will net more, but having the lens will generate Google Juice. 
  • GBR 4WD Club Forum.  User: JeepOnRock.  I'm there all of the time.  I'm the President of the club and the admin for the forum.  As long as I'm hitting 4wd clubs... I'm JeepOnRock on OC4WD, SouthernJeeps, Pirate4x4, and the JCCA. 
  • del.icio.us.  User: LaneBailey.  This is the one I am starting to dig in to.  It has a lot of potential.  I have loaded a few hundred links on here and they are all over the place from real estate to cars. 
  • Twitter.  User: LaneBailey.  I am on here each day, but it is at odd times.  I have both of my blogs feeding public posts here.  This also holds a lot f promise...
  • LaneBailey.com.  It's my blog, so I don't need a username.  It's all me. 
  • GarageHomesUSA.  That would be my website. 
  • WellcomeMat.  User: Lane Bailey.  I don't have any videos up here, but I will in the next few weeks. 
  • Linked-In.  User: Lane Bailey.  This is one of the Social Networks that I will be more active in over the next few months. 
  • MySpace.  User: Lane Bailey/GeorgiaGarageHomes.  I joined here a long time ago, and had been posting my blogs there.  Now I have a widget with my LaneBailey blog on it. 
  • FaceBook.  Use Lane Bailey.  I joined here a few months ago, and have NOT really leveraged this site.  I do have a blog widget there.

If I can think of any more places that I am active, I will post them up. 

If you would like to join my networks on any of these sites, just let me know, or send me an invitation.  

***Added Linked-In and WellcomeMat.*** 

***How could I forget FaceBook and MySpace?  I did... they are added now.***

Thats a lot. I haven't been able to keep up on all those. I need a clone of me and they can do that.

That's great. Keep getting out there and will pay off! I am doing the same thing! I saw you are a 4x4 enthusiast, Jeeps I presume? Me too! I had a '99 TJ took it all over Moab and Utah and Arizona! Love it!

Good Luck!

Good to have a strategy and then work it - I'm just getting into to Twitter and see the possibilities too - cheers

Lane.....how do you find time to do business and post to all of these.  I bet your other career was a juggler!
Posted by Pam Winterbauer (Pam Winterbauer Real Estate) about 4 years ago
Lane - I watched one of your YouTube videos.  You seem like a nice guy on video - well done!  I have a question for you: how do you make your AR blog feed your public posts directly to Twitter?

How do you keep track of all of these networks? I gave up awhile ago. Joining all these different networks was driving me nuts.
Posted by Camarillo CA Real Estate Agent/ Mana Tulberg (805 County Real Estate) about 4 years ago

Mana is right...to a point. I've tried to use the feeding technology to keep some network (plaxo, merchantcircle, twitter) alive, but really only work on AR and the social networks I've created on Ning (promisetribe.com).

Jason: Twitterfeed.

Chuck - I don't keep up with all of them, I just have a presence on all of them.  I know that there are more, too... but I'm not on them enough to remember.

Dave - I'll have a Moab pic on my header again before long...  

Jason - I see possibilities in a lot of the networks, but I just don't have time to keep up with more...

Pam - Just for you, I will get my wife to video me juggling... but the truth is that I don't post to all of these, and some of the work is automatic, like Squidoo is updated totally by RSS now.   I have a Facebook and MySpace profiles that I need to put up there, too...

Jason - Thank.  I am using TwitterFeed to pick up the RSS for my A/R and other blog.

Mana - As I just remembered in the reply to Pam, apparently I don't keep up well.  I know people with spreadsheets...

Joey - Twitterfeed and RSS are great tools to auto-update some of these networks that are back-burner.
