Great tips, the whole social thing has become so spammy but if you dont use it your blog or website is loosing out.

I try to use my actual name and picture were ever i go online, i have never see somone using a huge dollar sign as an Avatar and thought ‘He looks interesting’ .

People spend so much time on the websites and blogs of the ‘big hitters’ online, yet they dont notice that every successfull online entrepreneur uses their name as a brand.

In the years I have been doing business, I can assure you that #1 is highly important, and without doing it, you are putting many potential clients on the line

this is very helpfull

social bookmarking has become incredibly popular now, sites like stumbleupon and digg are getting thousands of submissions daily, its getting harder and harder to go viral with anything

I love number 6. People usually follow experts, not products. If you’re going to sell right out the gate, they’ll just brand you as a spammer. Be the expert that you are or can be and they’ll come to you.

Thanks for posting Stanley. I’ve been an avid reader of Lynn’s blogs, these tips are really helpful in building trust with your network. I also try to answer all the messages on my facebook and twitter account daily. Your right about that be you and not your brand thing. Regards

She is right, you don’t want to necessarily promote your brand, but promote yourself and let your readers do it for you too. Now if your readers do it for you, then you must have some good content.

Lynn,

Great post. You offer some very important points for everyone to adopt.

Translation for some: be honest, participate and be yourself.
