		<description>There is no question at all regarding effectiveness of social media/web 2.0 when done right. If I just hang a blog or video out there, it works good. If I share it on my social media platforms, the participation is much greater!</description>

		<description>We&#039;re a small wine shop, but we&#039;re doing a lot on Facebook &amp; Twitter - we just launched a promotion for someone to win a B&amp;B Dream Vacation along the Blue Ridge Parkway yesterday to see how very small &quot;mom &amp; pops&quot; can use social media to get the sort of results that the big guys like Queensland and Goode are doing.  We&#039;ll see if people are as competitive to get a vacation as they are to get a job.  More info here: http://whyineedabreak.ning.com</description>

		<description>I agree that social media is hot property in terms of marketing at the moment. However, participation alone is not enough, a business will not see the advantages of social media marketing by simply tweeting back and digging. 

Unfortunately, businesses are adopting quick fire, low investment social media initiatives. This in the long run delays proper adoption as high expectations are dashed, not by the ineffectiveness of social media but in the short term planning of low investment strategies. 

Businesses need to think long and hard about their goals and then allocate resource accordingly. Yes, short term cheap wins are available but long term social media strategy is far more lucrative.

		<description>Social media is definitely the best marketing tool available right now. It&#039;s proven that these websites generate huge traffic and since everything is so personalized with social networks, it gives advertisers a chance to properly market to a specific demographic. 
A company which specifies in pay-per-click advertising, EZanga, not only gives a chance to advertise on the web through its traditional online advertising, but it also now operates a social networking site, www.HopOnThis.com which is continuing to grow. eZanga&#039;s services are ideal for any small or large company looking to reach a broad audience.</description>
