Most people have no idea how to use social media effectively. If used correctly, you can pull a good bit of traffic.
The easiest way to drive traffic from social media is to tell people about what you are doing. Every time you make a blog post or write an article, or whatever else you do, update your status and tell people.
If you are offering valuable content, people will come. On the other hand, if your time line is nothing but a string of posts promoting products or programs, people will start to ignore you.
Since there is no way to cover everything there is to know about getting traffic from social media, I will be sharing links to a couple of eBooks that I found quite helpful in the near future. Here is one, for starters, that will help you get the most from Twitter.
Enjoy!

Big MLM Tip of the Day: Traffic Exchanges
Traffic exchanges can be a good source of traffic if used correctly. If not they are a complete waste of time.
For this post, we want to look at how they can benefit the professional network marketer.
The concept is simple. You surf pages through the exchange to gain credits, then use those credits so that other people see your pages.
The page you are promoting is what makes all the difference. You should only promote splash or capture pages on these sites. A splash page is a small web page designed to relay information briefly. People are going to view tis page for, on average, 3 to 5 seconds. That isn't a lot of time, so you have to grab their attention quickly.
A capture page is similar except it has a place enter an email address for more information. We can look at methods for creating splash pages another day, but what you promote with them is the key. It is not advised to promote opportunities or products via traffic exchanges. Promote yourself and what services you can offer.
Offering help to those who need it will get you much further.
If you have not already, I suggest going back and reading my post from yesterday, Laser Targeted Traffic.
