Small Business Networking and Exposure

Here is a short (relatively) list of some online networking sites for business exposure that I have found and/or tried:

Increase your business exposure - some of these sites are very easy to set up and they will show up in the Search Engine results as well ... increasing your business visibility.

1) Yahoo Groups

Create a group ... or find one to join ... post your business ... find one ... etc.

2) Google Groups

Create a group ... or find one to join ... post your business ... find one ... etc.

3) Craigslist

Besides posting local classifieds in the small biz ads section, you can post in the events section if you have a local or online meeting, and the services section that corresponds to what your business is about. Pay close attention to the posting rules as multiple ads in multiple cities, etc. will get you banned.

4) Merchant Circle

An online business "yellow pages" type of listing with information about your business and the ability to network with fellow business owners in your area. You can create ads that point to your website and the more people you network with or invite to join ... your ads will be shown on their business pages as well ... increasing your exposure.

5) Apsense

Business social networking site. This one you can earn some cash for signing up others and networking with them. Blogs, business centers, groups, discussions, etc. Business centers are fully functional websites that you could use to point people to for your business.

6) Ryze

More business networking. Best feature I've found here is the sheer volume of networking groups geared towards home business opportunities.

7) Jobvertise

Post your business opportunities for free ... search resumes that job (and opportunity) seekers have posted.

8) Insider Pages

Hometown yellow pages, reviews, offer a coupon online for your business, etc.

9) Yahoo Local

Local business directory, reviews, maps, events, etc.

10) Google Local

Local business directory, reviews, maps, events, etc. Add your business to Google Maps!!

That should be enough to get you started!!
