What are the advantages to us and how much extra work does it generate us in keeping them updated?
We would appreciate your thoughts.

Should a service company like Professional Swimming Pools have a Facebook &Twitter account. What are the advantages to us and how much extra work does it generate us in keeping them updated? We would appreciate your thoughts. ![]() Mark Pitts
I am not a fan of facebook never really took my interest ( I am a private person I guess) Twitter for me is easier as I use it for my SEO work, but the first question I would ask is what is the average age of a person that is lucky enough to have a pool? If the answer is they are typically the same age as twitter users and facebook users then yes go for it. tomsk
Other than having an experiment with some facebook advertising, I havent set up a business page. I suppose I should, but I never got round it, and there was always something more important to do. Apparently its low maintainace, and Stavros was telling me the other day the Facebook have changed the way business pages are indexed, so looks like I need to do a bit of reading up on it ![]() Twitter is easy for somethink like this forum, and it does bring in traffic, plus tweets now do form part of Search Engine index's, so it may be worth doing occasional keyword relevant tweets.

I've found Facebook easy to update and it does look good if you use lots of photos. Unless you pay for the advertising though, I get very few visitors to it. I would probably say Twitter seems to get a wider coverage. ![]()

I too have a Twitter account, and a facebook group, and a facebook page ![]() If it takes you five minutes per day to update them (you can link them so you only have to update once), then just one sale would be more than worth it! Give it a go and let me know... I'll follow you ![]()
Ive got to set up a twitter and facebook account for us too but I dont know what to twitter about so I dont think that will get much use. I think its horses for courses so you can only give it a try. Thanks, First Class Virtual Office |
