As long as you do it the right way, there are many benefits to social networking. These can help increase traffic to a site, expose your site or product, and allow you to network. However, because of the fact that the vast majority of people using these sites do so for entertainment, it is imperative that we set a goal, and a time limit for using these sites. If not we can get caught up in the socializing frenzy and lose lots of valuable time. It is also important that we only allow as friends or followers people that are interested in what we have to offer; people who are there for business or to network.
