Monetizing Social Meda Sites

Social Media refers to a group of websites whose content is primarily written by users.  Examples are Youtube and Wikipedia where the users provide the content. Social Media is people exchanging personal comments and views using various online platforms such as blogs and social networks and bookmarking sites, and video sharing sites.  Social Media Advertising is simply monetizing these sites with advertising.  When your product or service appeals to a certain segment, it makes sense to concentrate ad dollars on that segment.  Since people spend a great amount of time in their social networks as opposed to the time it takes to type in a keyword or two into a search engine, it's a good idea to get involved by contributing and being part of the conversations that are about your products or services.   Placing ads in targeted social network groups is getting your message in front of people likely to be most interested in your offers.
