So I know some lessons want you to join Facebook and do the social media thing, but I'm not really into that sort of thing.

Though I used to have Facebook its been years since I have used it and I'm not interested in using it again.

That being said I was wondering what your thoughts were on the situation. I know It would expand my audience but like I said I'm not really feeling the social media thing.

would love to hear what you think.

Thanks!

Hi Tommy,

The biggest is not always the best vehicle for you. There is no doubt that there are many who are able to use FB successfully. Have you considered one of the other social media vehicles?

I am also struggling with what social media to become an expert at using, I started out using Facebook and got my business site unpublished. So I moved over to Linkedin. Pinterest is a big mystery to me but many find that drives traffic to their websites. So go figure.

It is more important to pick just one and become an expert at using it. Linkedin is one of the better ones. Then there is Pinterest. Or Twitter. YouTube is the second largest after FB.

I suggest researching all of these. You will find training and webinars on every one of them here at Wealthy Affiliate. Experienced members also provide training that you may find very helpful.

There are two ways to access the training you want. The first it to click the Training tab on the left followed by Training HQ. A endless list of training modules will appear given by Kyle, Jay, Carson as well as members at Wealthy Affiliate. The same topic is covered by many individuals. You can find one that resonates with you to follow.

Since you want to make money online you are at the right place at the right time to do that. There is no other platform that is geared to beginners in such a complete turnkey way. And at such a low cost.

I wish you well in mastering social media to work for you.

Cheers.

Edwin, did you say that you got your "business FB page unpublished"? Do you mean that FB deleted your page? This is very unusual. Maybe you posted business content on a personal page and FB is now cracking down on this because they have a protocol and they want you to advertise your business on a business page, not a personal one. Was this your case?

Try to find a face book group that is in your niche. If nothing else it'll give you insight as to what people are thinking.

Social media is a way of advertising your business more than half my audience is from social media. And remember you can not just post your website you have to make friends just control what you say and how much time you spend on there. Wishing you success.

Social media has its place. Doesn’t seem to work for me.

I am not fond of Social sites. But I think I will use them especially for getting traffic. The choice is yours, I don't think you should put yourself under pressure just to suit them!

I use social media to plug my site, but the results aren't very impressive. I like you get no enjoyment from any of them except Facebook where I bump into people I knew 50 years ago. Unfortunately none of them are interested in my niche so my Facebook posting is just spam to them. The engagement in the others is only for business and not interesting at all. I see the competition in my niche barely use social media.

I agree

If you do not want to use social media of any kind then that is your choice and you don't have to use it. The choice entirely is yours to make it is not an essential thing.

You make the choice for yourself, what suits you is what you want to go on. xxx

Thanks I'm leaning that way just not sure yet.

As I say, it is entirely your choice and it is not right or wrong if you do or don't use it.

I am now also following you here and wishing you all the best here at WA. xxx

Not everybody is using social media. Write great blogs with low fruit keywords and you will get noticed by Google itself.

Thanks that's what i been doing so far.

Hello!

I am in the same boat in the fact that I don't really use social media. I don't like the amount of things that are posted when it comes to people's lives.

But due to the high amount of individuals on Social Media, it would be wise to use these as a tool to reach large amounts of people. If you don't like Facebook, you don't have to use it. Sites like Instagram and twitter have huge followings as well.

It's not to say that you cant get traffic without Social Media, but in order to maximize the amount of traffic to your sites, it is recommended.

I hope this helps your decision!

Thanks much appreciated.
