    Do you use LinkedIn?
    >It's useful for company, not for personal, it kinda spoils the privacy

    Do you use social bookmarking sites?
    Yea, Digg is my fav so far

    Does your site have social buttons, etc?
    Facebook and Twitter is a must these days. Maybe Google+ is the next plan.

    Do you have someone that works for you who manages social media?
    Yeap, Im the one hired to do this. it's important to focus on social media as it will probably be one of the main source of sales in the future.

    How often do you or your social media worker visit your profiles weekly?
    Everyday?

    Thanks for the replies..

    What is it about Digg you really like? And also what is it about LinkedIn that makes you think it is not as private?

    Here is your answer:
    1) Yeah (I've 2 IDs one is official and another one is personal - It simply let the one that you/your org. is genuine and give a solid answer who want to know "Why You?")
    2) Yes, it helps in indexing the pages :)
    3) A big yes.. I've all the social buttons their(It helps in SMO)
    4) It's done by only and only me :p
    5) I use to work 5-6 days weekly
    6) Digg is a good social bookmarking website and I'm habit of using it.

    Just looking for somebody to update the facebook/linkedin account, getting likes and connections and whatever else could be done in SMM/SMO. Since I don't use social media I don't actually know much about "what could be done". But just understand that social media is important both for SEO and for business itself and thus I need somebody to take care of it.

    I hope that person will take care of that :) I have no idea what one should post on SM sites. Competitions... could be good idea, never thought about it. Articles are much easier, since we are writing quite a lot of them lately.

    I am looking into setting up a social media services business and our basic content management services of two profiles like LinkedIn and Facebook would be good value for money.

    Digg is nice when you really have ppl following your stuff, you can really grow from there.
    LinkedIn is like displaying too many information which might be sensitive if you're using it for personal use.

    I think LinkedIn is not actually intended to be used for personal use, so that should be ok, and I guess it's displaying too much information only for those who are paying quite a lot.
