How To Automate Social Media

When I first started in Social Media I was all over the place just like any newbie
and my time management was terrible and I wondered why I was wasting so much time
until I sat down and ordered a book from Amazon named, Social Media An Hour A Day
by Dave Evans. It showed me what I was doing wrong and how to properly manage my
time online because if you don't know what you're doing you can suck a whole day
away and get nothing done.
Below are a few tips and suggestions I use on a daily basis to manage my time, all
I can do is make suggestions on what works for me, take what you need and go to
work. Remember, what works for one person may not work for you but there has to be
a better way to manage your time online than trying to do everything one task at a
time, especially in these times of simple automation.
1. I joined Onlywire so I can automate all my bookmarking in one place, they have a
free service that works just as good as the paid service. The only hook is that you
may have to fill out a couple of Captcha pages which is no big deal especially if
you're automating all your Social Media in one place.
2. I have a Wordpress blog because the Google Spiders love it and will index your
blog posts quickly.
3. I use Google + as well, you can use their tools to automate a few things too,
they also have a new business branding tool and its all free.
4. I don't advertize in the morning or afternoon, this has to be timed. You'll get
more eyes on your ads during or after dinner, what doesn't show up that night is
sure to show up in the morning.
5. Don't forget Craigslist and Ebay's free classifieds plus Facebooks Marketplace.
6. Stay up on all Facebook's new changes and play around with them, Facebook is
changing monthly and you don't want to be on the bottom of the learning curve when
their new stuff launches.
These are just a few of my tactics, I'm sure there are a thousand more but this is enough to get you started on the right track.

Hey Paul i also have found the blog as the effective technique. And as social media also plays the major role but it is not so that the social media which be helpful to others will be for you as you have said. But with the social media all plans that we have built own are working as minds are different as per the person. Such great points. Thanks.

Thanks Paul, we can all use tips on time management - Dave Evans sounds like a good read. I especially like your tip about placing ads during or after dinner as I'm usually all over place with no particular time.

The title sounds like an oxymoron but it can be done.
