Implementing a social media marketing program without optimizing content is leaving money on the table. Useful social content (blog, video, images, audio) that cannot be discovered via search is a lost opportunity to reach an audience that is looking. Social interactions and media sharing amongst social network participants create the kind of content that can improve a brand’s visibility within search results through profiles, videos, blog posts, or other media.

This post is in continuation of my previous one. SEO and social media work well together as long as there is a framework for doing so. One way to build SEO and social media programs efficiently is to follow a social media roadmap. Find the audience; understand their behaviors, preferences, methods of publishing, and sharing. Most companies that are involved with the social web in the channels where their customers spend time have a good sense of where to start. Many companies are ahead of the game by tracking their audience via social media monitoring software.

One outstanding member of it is the social networking site which are so hot recently!

Social Networking is a recent invention that has the Internet still at the edge of its seat due to its popularity with people.

This is mostly because it really is for the people. Bringing every kind of social group together in one place and letting them interact is really a big thing indeed.

It help in exposure by enhancing your visibility but I don't think it help you in conversion what you can expect with organic search traffic.

I really believe in creating a social media roadmap before implementation and then constantly optimizing for:
1. Content Relevance
2. Encouraging interactions with other members
3. Constant contribution
4. Ensuring that these social media tactics help refer traffic to your website

Not necessarily. Look at the few examples about how Dell or other businesses have leveraged Twitter to increase their sales. Not only did these businesses reached their target audiences, these businesses have seen good ROI. http://business.twitter.com/twitter101
