Thanks, I did the same too.

On a side note, do you guys release there is a type of limit with twitter? I maxed out my following limit at 2000. They said I need to raise my followers, that is currently around 475, higher before the 2000 limit can be raised higher. That is so strange.

Lawn care business tips
Twitter has some kind of ration. After a certain number (2000)? you can't add more friends until your followers are pretty close to that number.

Why they did this? Who knows.

I am still not sure any of it is worthwhile at all.

They do it for safety purposes. There are just so many damn spammers and innapropriate pages that link you to **** on twitter that it has to be protected. They will think your a spammer if you just follow so many people and send many innapropriate messages and you arent getting followers. It's strange. You also cant send more than 250 direct messages.

Thats interesting about the direct messages too. I never send direct messages.

I do agree about the spammers though. I get at least one per day.

Same with me Tiedeman. I get at least three spammers a day. Half of all my followers are spammers. I just don't have the time to go about deleting them. But I can see the rationale why twitter has restrictions. It makes complete sense. I've got my account suspended for ten days because I followed to many people. They gave me access to the account after these ten days and deleted all my followers. I bit wierd but now I control who I follow.

On a side note if your interested in following my twitter page feel free to take a look. I spend numerous hours on it. @_TheGroundsCrew

If you have any type of emailing campaign Google + & FB are very beneficial for any business. I could go into great detail, but would also sound like a "Spammer". There are many many techniques online that can create such a great word of mouth..it is UNBELIEVABLE!

These 2 social mediums are not the only ones that can create such a "Word of mouth", you must seek them out. Find where the conversation is taking place that will bring people to you.

What other advice to you have for Facebook and Google + users? I just got into the Google + thing and am a little unsure of its benefits and uses. However, I heard that it is google searchable and ranks high in google.

And advice, tips, thoughts, and opinions will help?

That is my number one reason that I started Google + was because of the increase in Google searches. The way that Google has their searches setup these days, you have to constantly be updating, and have as much information as possible out there.

I'd like to hear more of your thoughts on it. Maybe others could utilize different parts of your suggestions to tailor fit their marketing.
