Thanks for this interesting post! I’ve never really been a fan of MySpace, but now you actually have me thinking about it. And I’ve mentioned your case studies on my work from home blog: http://www.workshak.com/2007/11/marketing-your-.html.

I’m not sure if I’m completely ready to take the plunge. I’m already on Facebook and don’t really use that to potential. But it does seem like MySpace could offer something a little easier to keep up with…

I think you should mention ‘in the US’ somewhere in the post, someone showed me this entry and we’re a bit amazed here in the UK that (real) people still use MySpace and not people buying online friendship. It’s lost its credibility over time as a marketing tool, not sure (again) about the US but in the UK it’s only the bands that still manage to make it worthwhile.

I don’t mean to criticise your post but it just doesn’t work the same and MySpace is slowly dying here, making way for facebook.

MEA… you should… Point them to my case study on how to build a large blog audience on MySpace, it can be applied to other types of promotion on there.

Neb… so you are saying you can’t build a quality community from people on MySpace? That is totally baseless, my entire blogging career has been build off myspace.

Page views turn to readers… how else do people find your work?

I still don’t like MySpace. Has nothing to do with its use as a tool, it just has to do with the fact that it’s not something I like!. And in response to the comment that I “need” to make an outside link, I think that commenting on people’s blogs with similar interests, and working through Wordpress to get my name out there, works just fine for my desires. I want a good community, with comments from people who are going to make insightful remarks. I don’t care nearly as much about net page views, nor is there any financial incentive for me.

Great idea. Hadn’t really considered it seriously for business. Will have to alert my Home Biz Notes readers to this post and see what ideas they can come up with to promote their own businesses this way. And I should set up a My Space account for myself, too, shouldn’t I?
