Assess Your Social Networking Strategy

Update FacebookAs first reported but my friend Darcy over at The Business of Diving, Facebook has now provided dive shops who inadvertently started using a facebook personal profile as a business with a way or converting their pages over to a business page.

Facebook is doing more and more to add more functionality, specifically for small businesses, and all of that functionality is focused on the page. There are a lot of differences between profiles and pages, which makes pages absolutely the only way for your dive center to get a lot of value out of Facebook.

Did you design and build your website yourself? How much time did you spend and do you optimise and run it yourself or pay someone to do it...

I gave my honest opinion and tried to be objective as possible in my reply. In doing so I failed to see a little bit about the person who it turns out wasn't a dive center but another company in the web design business. Basically, he was trying to create the discussion so it would possibly generate a few leads. Nothing wrong with that...I just should have checked before replying. So shame on me for taking the bait! That said, here was my reply for any dive centers considering building their own website.
