    Advertising is good. Social networking sites are very popular these days but still it depends on the 'type of business'. :)

    I think if you can target your particular ad to a certain audience then it's a good idea. If you're trying to target a broad audience, I don't like it.

    adverting on social networking sites is an good idea, because millions of people use social networking sites, and through this at least you can get few hundred interested peoples which actually want your services or product ... hence ROI is quite high ....

    If you target the correct demographic for your product then it will bring awareness and with it sales. With good customer service you can turn that into word of mouth advertising and soon you can have a strong and loyal customer base.

    The beauty about many social network sites is that you can target your audience. Once you get a solid list of followers by posting quality content, they will build trust. In this way, social network sites can be very beneficial.

    Using social networking for your business can be beneficial if you apply the right strategies for it. The most popular social networks being used in marketing now are Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. Do some research on how your particular type of business can benefit from these and how to go about using them before actually using them.

    I just started using Twitter and Facebook for marketing on my website, and so far Twitter has been good.(just added facebook today). However I believe they are both great free ways to get traffic.

    If you have good budget with you then advertising on a site like orkut is good. If your budget is small then its not good to go with that kind of advertising strategy as though you may get huge impressions you may not find any leads. Also you need to decide whether you want to go with CPC or CPM or some other model

    If you want to use social networks for your business, the best way to make it successful is to make your post interesting and intriguing enough to catch their attention. And of course, interact with other users. Know what they want and what they are looking for that you can cater them.

    If you are small, then focus on using one particular medium very well rather than spreading things out and getting nowhere.

    You get different outcomes for both facebook and twitter in my experience.

    Our director has a twitter account and since it's launch (6 - 9 mnths ago) he has been working hard sending out tweets with decent content he wrote.
    He is only giving his followers (who are real people in our industry) good, solid, marketing advice.

    Our facebook page has not been as popular but it depends on the marketing / target audience you are after.
