Are There Better Sites For Business Networking Than Myspace?
James M. Crosswell
Everyone knows of the phenomenal success of sites like MySpace and FaceBook over the past couple of years. Reports show a growth of almost 50% in the top social networking sites and a huge growth of over 350% for MySpace alone.
As with anything new you will have people who like it and people who don't. Some of the people who are a bit wary of this new technology include the Chicken Little's of our time afraid any advance in technology will harm our children. On the other hand, some people seem a little over joyous with the new technology, namely, the online peddlers of goods. They have seen an enormous rise in their profitability due to the explosive growth of these sites.
The multiple facets of these sites make it possible for the marketer to not only, make enormous returns on the dollars invested, but to actually meet more individuals and companies that they can form a business relationship with. This flexibility is an incredible advantage for like-minded people.
MySpace has dominated the other social networking sites in the USA and UK. While FaceBook seemed to get off to a slower more deliberate start. Facebook is becoming a major contender as it has a more together feel to it. Is it possible that another site could come along and compete with these two behemoths?
While it is agreed that Google's bazillion(just kidding, closer to a billion) dollar investment in MySpace shows that the guys with the huge heads and even the super geniuses they have working for them see something good inside social networking sites.
MySpace and YouTube are both showing their power as an advertising medium buy either hosting live debates or hosting 2008 US Presidential hopefuls' web profiles online. CNN was working with YouTube to air live questions from YouTube users to the candidates as they were on CNN debating.
While there is still a lot of room for growth and profits on MySpace, it is ideal to always look for new opportunities in social networking. There are a lot of wannabees that have started out small like Giblink but just like MySpace, it has a lot of potential for growth.
While the internet remains a vast uncharted region that seems to have no boundaries in regards to the amount of money that can be potentially made, it is refreshing to see an company, like GibLink, that has the same potential as any of the giants, give back to the members that have made it what it is and what it will be in the future.
