    They are imperative for a successful business now. I always tell my clients that they need to set up a website, a facebook account and a twitter account. I recommend using facebook daily with company info updates and then use twitter to promote specials to spur a jolt in business.

    They don't directly sell, most of the time. But they help spread the word and this in turn broadens your audience and chances of getting new clients.

    Actually, I am not a good SEO marketer thus I could make much traffic from search engines. However, I feel like I am doing better at social media. You know, 60 percent of my blog traffic came from Social media sites. Today, I got a sponsored post from Facebook and a guy pay me $35 per post. I love social media sites.

    Beside the fact that social networks like FB and Twitter help any business a lot, one can even do proper business just on social networks. So to answer your question, YES, social accounts bring a lot of exposure for your business.

    Twitter and Facebook are very helpful tools. If you dont know how to use them to your advantage, it becomes a useless social media tool. But if you know the ways and you work hard on it, it could lead to sales, followers and loyal customers.

    Yes! It could be a great wait to promote your business. Have contents that are engaging like creating some questions,sharing a fresh idea, or be creative and create eye-catching imagery that people will respond to.

    Social media is interactive online tools to grow your business & find your customers, like you, trust you, and recommend you. Facebook is the easiest way to build a robust community around your brand whereas Twitter is a vehicle for dialogue, first and foremost.

    Yes, both are top social networking sites and there are a large number of visitors and it is the best way to redirect that user to any business website. And it is also good to promote any business because there is more active users present online.

    Depends on hpw you use social media to boost your site. If your just spreading nonsense than it's not going to be very beneficial at all... But most of the world is on facebook so you would be silly to keep your business off of it.

    Yes, I think people can benefit a lot from any of social media, but you should put in the time and effort to bring in followers/likes first time, otherwise it makes no sense. So, hope you can success!!!!!

    @Focustech told you truth about Facebook and twitter. However if you want to find potential customer on twitter I recommend go with free hootsuite account and create your own stream with your keywords for twitter and start replying.

    I think they help if we focus on using them right. They can bring a lot of traffic to our webpages and blogs. I think a good way to use them is being aware of the importance of hashtags and the social trends at the moment. By using them, and being creative, we can get considerable presence online all over the world.

    Facebook and Twitter have helped my business (my blog) dramatically! I have been a member of both for quite a few years. I joined Twitter later, in 2009. Once I built a network of followers on a large scale, I started getting a lot more traffic to my blog. I post viral content on my blog. People on Facebook and Twitter love to share with their friends. It has brought an incredible amount of referral traffic to my business. Not only my blog, but other online ventures I'm involved in.
