If you are actively using social networking then there are some essential tools that you must use in order to save time and money.
1. Tube Mogul- This free website allows you to upload your videos to multiple sites. If you are actively looking to use video to market and everyone should, then you should be using tube mogul.
2. Ping.fm- this free website lets you send updates to multiple sites at once. Now you probably don't want to send all your tweets to multiple sites but I recommend using ping.fm once or twice a day to update everything at once.
3. Profile HTML Application- I quite frankly cannot understand why more people do not use this to capture subscribers on their facebook profile. By not using this, you are missing out on quite a few potential subscribers.
4. Twellow.com This is the yellow pages of twitter and should be your first stop to finding new people in your niche to follow.
5. Onlywire.com This website allows you to social bookmark content to multiple sites at once. If you are using social bookmarking at all then this site is a must use.
6. The Google Adwords Keyword Tool- yes I'm serious about this one, you must know which keywords are being searched so you can use them with your tweets, on Squidoo and other places where keywords are important. This helps with your SEO.
7. Web 2.0 badges- this awesome site lets you create badges you can use on your sites and also has free icons you can use for people to connect with you on all your social networking sites.
8. Public Domain Pictures- One of many free sites where you can find free to use pictures for your social networking and blogs.
9. The Tweet Meme plugin for Wordpress blogs. This plugin will greatly increase your traffic by automatically inviting your readers to tweet your posts.
10. Twitwall- Use this space to share more than 140 characters with your Twitter followers and enhance your traffic and relationships.
