I am Looking For Social Networking Sites that aim for "Computers/Technology" and "Web Hosting" Niche

Hi Everybody,

First time asking although I kinda have the right Idea about who to target. I am currently working on my blog and I have down two niches that I am most fond of: "computers/technology" and "web hosting".

Now, those that are on tight budget need to start with free traffic first before scaling up towards paid traffic which I understand. The question I'm asking is what social networking sites are worth the time for signing up regarding these two niches.

I know about the major social networks but I am trying to aim for specific ones for these 2 niches without wasting time on any site that is not relevant. This way I can get more done and target the right kind of people.

Any help is appreciated.

 

Facebook Groups, Linkedin Groups, related forums, and guest blogging. I am not aware of any niche social networks but you can use the big ones to your advantage to, especially Twitter. You can also comment on top ranking blogs where there are regular members who often post comments, so it's basically a niche community cause you can still reach people.

 

Okay,

Thanks so far. So from what you are saying is that the big social networks play a big role, but finding specific social networks that deal with these niches are unknown.

The reason why I am asking this is because I went searching up on what appeals to what target audience on wikipedia:

Some are in the niche for the Computer and Video games niche but none stating technology and computer management as well as webhosting.

I know Pinterest is popular but among women in general everyday life.

I am trying to lower time looking for the right social sites while effectively finding like-minded people in these 2 niches. I can work from there.

I am resetting my Facebook and twitter accounts because they were heavily influenced by my former niche and did me no good.

 

Facebook, Linkedin & Google+ have many groups & pages that have millions of user's participation over the topics of your interest. I ensure you will get the best of information that you are willing to have through these sources only. Once a man come up with a new social media platform, he definitely is going to initiate the promotion of that new platform through these huge role players (Fb, Linkedin etc.) only.

 

Okay Update,

When I checked Facebook, Linkedin & Google+ the groups are less and practically little is going on in my niche with those platforms but Twitter on the other hand is showing plenty of promise. I think it will be easier for me to start off with social media first from Twitter before moving on to advanced stuff like guest blogging and forum traffic.

 

The Dzone is a social network for Technology, maybe you can try it.

 

You can open a page specifically about the niches you want to target for free here.

 

Also, you may want to reconsider Pinterest as an option. There are a very large number of bloggers on there & you may find that they need the information you provide from either of those two niches. I've notices a large number pinning on all things related to computer technology, blogging, hosting, networking, etc. You would, of course have to have decent images & a widget...possibly infographics for the extra eye appeal.

 

Uhh, No thanks. I am very cautious about signing up for sites like that as I search for reviews first on the product you gave (and in this case when i searched gave little in return, and even that was negative). Hard lesson I learned that I am never want to go back to.

Thanks Ill try to see further in Pintrest. Not a simple one but I am studying how people work on social sites.
