Tip 31 - Keep It Real (Google Profiles)

You may or may not be aware of the latest debate over Google and its policy to force people to user their real names as their profile on Google. This has caused lots of different opinions on the web, but here is how and why you shoudl capitalise on this to promote your website.

In any business regardless of the size there is one simple rule to remember and that is "people by from people" not matter what your product or service people will always prefer dealing with people. This being the case you should try to make all of your profiles as real as possible, and make sure that people can connect your online presence with your offline presence.

How? the best way it to firstly make sure you have a profile online for yourself and your business "although not currently possible on Google". One you have your profiles make sure that your personal profile speaks to people about who you are, and gives them an insight into your world. Them make sure within your profile you link to your website.

So in short my tips are
  1. Make your profile personal and show people you are a real person
  2. link your profile to your website and make sure people know that although they are buying from your company. "its you they are dealing with"
  3. Try to keep the link between you and your company as connected as possible but without your potential work prospects adding your personal profile as your work one. You dont want clients seeing your drunken photos now do you.
So remember in order to make the most out of social media you must be "SOCIAL"
