How do you use Facebook as a media tool?
I have both a Facebook and Twitter but how do you go about using them as a media tool and how do you get your readership?
By being friends with news stations, companies, etc. They often post about what's recent and you can get good coupon deals as well. For communicating with other friends, join or start a group. That way you can keep up with posts easier.
I basically add my Hub URL's to my pages. I usually tweet the URL to Twitter. I also find groups on Facebook that are relevant to my Hub articles and post them there. For example, I wrote and article about how to save money. So I found a Facebook group about saving money with about 1500 members of that group, and my article ended up getting a lot of views. Remember to first join the group and make sure posting your article will not be against any group rules. I have recently learned that with writing these articles, utilizing affiliate marketing skills helps.

Do you have an external blog that you link to your hubs? Do you write articles for an online magazine? And is it recommended to specialise in one or two areas - and connect a blog to these hub topics?I receive bursts of traffic when I promote my hubs on social media but I am looking into other ways...
