    Hi all,

    Today I wanted to discus the best social media platform.
    Which do you prefer? Facebook or Twitter? Hi5 or LinkedIn? YouTube or Dailymotion?

    Well I recently wrote a post about this topic. It's here: http://www.akosblog.com/2011/04/big-social-media-battle.html

    Share your thoughts!

    Best Regards,
    Akos

    I don't give any priority to twitter. Twitter never sent me traffic. Even a single hit. My Priority list is

    1. Facebook
    2. Youtube

    I'm actually surprised to read this.

    I'm giving high priority to twitter and get a good amount of traffic from it. Facebook is nowhere on my list but it's only cause of a personal preference. I've never used facebook for marketing purposes.

    Twitter does the job for me. I've never used Facebook to promote a business (only personal) but I think it's time to start using it :)

    Actually 4 because they are not actually exactly for the same purpose. Network for facebbok, update for twitter, video for youtube, profile for linkedin. That's it.

    Twitter, Facebook and youtube all have pros and cons.

    I use twitter for short burts of info, sales, whats new, etc
    Facebook for networking and to chat directly with customers,suppliers,etc
    youtube purely because its the largest viral video site in the world

    I recall reading somewhere that a "like" is worth more than a "tweet" in terms of marketing. For me, I prefer:

    1. Facebook
    2. Twitter

    Facebook now has more than 600 million users and apparently is today's most famous existing social network. People use facebook for many purposes!

    Twitter is not far behind when it comes to making your content and thoughts virall. Its really effective for increasing your PR.

    LinkedIn is a professional social network which is used by many entrepreneurs and people who are seeking for good opportunities.
