Ping.Fm & How It Will Help Your Social Life

If you have been learning how to brand yourself on the internet then surely you have learned that joining social networks and creating a profile to network with like minded individuals is one of the first steps you want to take.  Sites like MySpace, Facebook, You Tube, Yahoo 360 are all top sites that you want to join.

First thing you want to do is design your profile, so it looks clean and informative and tells about you and what your purpose is for being on the site.  People will come and check out your site but why would they want to come back to your site?  Unless you are consistently updating content on your site they have nothing more to  look forward to.  What value do you have to offer your website visitors.

Okay, so the solution to that is that you will go update your social networking sites on a regular basis.  Sounds easy but as you will learn updating each social network site on a daily basis can become time consuming.  So what is the answer?

Ping.fm is a program designed to help make your post to your social networks that you belong to a lot easier.  First thing you want to do is go to http://ping.fm and sign up.  You will see that the design of the website is easy to navigate.  With Ping.fm you have the ability to post messages either via their website or also through their mobile application where you can send post over your cell phone while you are on the go.

Once you sign up and you sign in first thing you want to do is find all the social networking sites that you belong to and add the network to your list.  You can add networks such as:  Facebook, MySpace, Yahoo360, LinkedIn, Friendster, Hi5, Bebo, Delicious, Mashable, BrightKite, Xanga and much much more.

After you have setup your networks you are ready to post messages.  The good thing about this program is that you have the ability to post status updates, blogs, and micro blogs.  You can pick and choose which network you want to post what message with using triggers so every message doesnt have to go to the same place.  You can also post images and it will soon give you the ability to post video.  Got a website with a long link?  When you ping your message it can also shorten your link if you want or you can keep it the way it is.

In short I love this program because it makes it alot easier for  me to send out my post to the network I want without having to log into each site.  This will definitely cut your time it takes to manage your social applications.

To Your Success!!!
