================== ARTICLE START ==================
MySpace is an online community where users have the opportunity
to create websites where others can view personal information
about them and contact them. However, savvy Internet marketers
have found MySpace can also be used to advertise products or
service or for the purpose of self promotion. Care should be
taken to review the terms of use on MySpace to ensure none of
your actions are in violation of these terms but otherwise
users can advertise either directly or indirectly on their
MySpace website.
Why Advertising on MySpace is Effective
Advertising on MySpace can be effective as long as it is done
correctly and not in a way that is viewed as spam. The
effectiveness of MySpace stems from amount of users who are
currently using MySpace. This includes both members who place
comments as well as nonmembers who only look at other websites.
With so many daily visitors it is likely there will be visitors
who are interested in the products or services you are offering
on your MySpace website.
Another reason why MySpace is such an effective advertising
tool is there are no fees associated with using your MySpace
profile to create links to your ecommerce website or to provide
more information about the products and services you offer. The
best way to effectively advertise on MySpace is to follow the
same guidelines that would normally be followed by advertisers
in online locations. This includes knowing who your target
audience is and how to effectively appeal to them. This is
important because a marketing campaign which does not follow
these simple rules will not likely be effective.
In addition to advertising within a MySpace website there are
also opportunities to advertise in the form of banner
advertisements on MySpace. MySpace is able to not charge a fee
to members because they generate their income through paid
advertisements. Contact MySpace administrators directly to
learn more about these advertising opportunities.
Selling Products on MySpace
MySpace can be also be used to advertise products or services.
This can be done either subtly or blatantly. Those who are
active participants on MySpace and invest time in meeting
others and making friends are more likely to benefit from
selling products or services through a MySpace account. This is
because most people who use MySpace are not exactly looking for
information about products or services so they are unlikely to
seek out this information.
However, if they have online friends who are using their
MySpace account to promote a product or service they may see
the advertisements and find the products or services
interesting. In this case they may visit a link to an ecommerce
website and consider making a purchase. However, care should be
taken when advertising online. Links to your ecommerce website
on your own profile are acceptable but placing comments with
the same link on other members� websites will likely be
considered spam by both the other members and the MySpace
administrators.
Using MySpace for Self Promotion
In addition to selling products and services, MySpace websites
can also be used for the purpose of self promotion. Models,
actors and actresses, bands and other performers are all
realizing the potential for self promotion which exists on
MySpace. Members of the community can include everything which
may be useful to those who wish to hire them in the future. For
example, models can include professional photos while bands can
have their music playing on the website for visitors to enjoy.
With so many people visiting MySpace on a daily basis, it can
be easy for members of the community to create quite a
following for themselves.
Those on MySpace should also be aware that industry executives
are now dedicating staff members to comb MySpace to try to find
new talent on MySpace. In fact more than one major recording
company has admitted to having interns spend hours each day on
MySpace looking for exciting new artists.
