Creating back links to the site is also important from the content - which can be done by the encouragement of sharing. Employee sharing by providing a pre-created tweet which will then reach a larger audience. Naming social media profiles properly - profile description is effective and details what the organisation does, add website address to link to the site and appropriate landing page and also include location.
- Linked-In is a social networking site that is aimed at professionals, with a steady growth rate with two new members signing up every second. When using Linked-In for business to business social media marketing, a few considerations to enhance effectiveness are;Create adverts to draw attention to your company page, or your professional pageWhen you think it could benefit your business, ask your contacts for introductions to their contacts.Endorsing other people skills adds creditability to their profile, and they may endorse your skills back. Professional photo which allows for instant recognition, you should use the same headshot across all of your professional platforms. It helps with your personal branding.Things to share on Linked-In should be a mix of third party articles, company blog posts, links to e-books and webinars, employee information and other content appropriate for your LinkedIn audience.The main thing to do for lead gen is to make sure you are providing compelling offers with calls-to-action so prospects can become leads for your B2B company.
