Will Facebook dominate Internet Marketing for Small Business in 2011?

facebook and small businessRecently with the dominance of all social media website like Facebook, Youtube, Twitter and many more, many experts started discussions about Google VS Facebook.  To me such discussions are really baseless. Well social media has so much to offer that search engines are taking their help to get best for all end users, kudos!!

Internet Marketing has seen many ups and downs in past two years. Google introduced too many new algos to refine the results. Yahoo started showing results from Bing, good for them. I over heard somewhere “Google believes every result should be best for the end user” so are they just trying to find a silver bullet for the best results? Good for us!!

Google and Facebook, What’s the connection?

Well, I am not going to establish any real relations between Facebook, Twitter or any other social media website with Google and search engines. My advise is very simple for Small Business Internet Marketers, Search Engines love Social Media. Which means Search Engines will consider all social share signals important ranking websites.

The reach and influence of Facebook or social media is not to be ignored at any cost today. People share content with their friends, family and professional network too, if they love it. This creates opportunity to influence buying decision, you got it! People prefer recommendations while they are buying only from their trusted ones.

It’s still early days to say Facebook will dominate or not. But for sure social media is about to rule. Which means if you are a Small Business and planning your Internet Marketing for 2011, do you know what to do?
