MySpace Marketing

[Zoidberg]

Does anybody recommend this type of driving traffic to your site? I heard they were good for arcades.

Re: MySpace Marketing

Yes, myspace advertising works best for teens and arcade targetted audiences...

Re: MySpace Marketing

Actually, it's just lately that I have found out about the magic of myspace. Some people even sell their accounts in myspace and they earn some great cash from it.

^ Same here. I've seen owners who buy graphic glitters, buy myspace accounts for friend counts.... seems pretty cool.

Re: MySpace Marketing

I also agree, creating an account and harvesting as many friends as possibly is becoming very common only to sell the account. I have purchased some myspace bullitens and have had some "so-so" results.

Re: MySpace Marketing

I would say that I disagree with the overall idea. I think that myspace has enough advertising on it as it is. I would also say, though, that it is probably a very good way to drive traffic to your site. If you yourself had a myspace account with a lot of friends on it, it would be even better, because it is more personal. I haven't used this type of advertising, but I am still thinking long and hard about it.

Re: MySpace Marketing

I came across success stories in using myspace as a marketing tool. But it can only be effective if you have access to a target network group. Building your network is not an overnight task. You have to work for it.

Re: MySpace Marketing

Yes I heard they are effective. I saw some threads in a forum where people buys MySpace bulletins. MySpace accounts also sells for a good amount of money.

Re: MySpace Marketing

I would agree myspace does help a lot in marketing products and services. But there are a lot of things needed to be remembered with myspace. Issues arise like identity theft and phishing which is very present in myspace. Found an article about it (http://www.profilepitstop.com/articl...e-phishing.php), pretty helpful for all myspace users.

Re: MySpace Marketing

I've heard people get sued for spamming on myspace, so just be careful what you do.

Re: MySpace Marketing

I am very curious about this too, I was thinking of making a new myspace account for my website and just adding targetted friends to advertise my site. has anyone else tried this? what kind of results can I expect?

Re: MySpace Marketing

Those bulletins you buy are only effective if the friends they have added are real, and visit MySpace a lot. Also, if they would even be interested in your site. For example if some guy had 2000 teenagers added, why would they care about a bulletin about a forum about house insurance. Only a certain percentage of them would see the bulletin, then another percentage would open it, and then those who actually visit the site, many would not be interested in it anyway and just hit close.

Re: MySpace Marketing

MySpace marketing depends largely on products.. if ur target audience or ur product has a lot to do with social networking crowd then this is the place to be. In either ways this is actually a good way to drive traffic. though one cannot comment on the conversions that happen through this crowd

Re: MySpace Marketing

Myspace marketing is very effective but they are cracking down very hard on people who use this form of advertisement.

Re: MySpace Marketing

I think it would work well if you know how. You wouldn't want to spam people though because it could get you into trouble.
