Social Media Saves Time

Contrary to popular belief, setting up a social media account is quick and self-explanatory. You can create a Facebook page today and set up a blog in a couple of hours. It will not take you all day on StumbleUpon to get good results.

With good planning and the right approach, you can get fantastic results with just a few hours per week on social media sites. I know of someone who spends a long time on a daily basis just to be a top Digg user; however you do not have to be a top Digg user to attract social media traffic. Avoid spending so much time on social networking sites just to drive traffic to your website when you can be tending to other aspects of your business.
