moments of greatness. You should be posting to Twitter and Facebook daily.
Customization – Setting yourself apart is key to standing out. You need a
customized look on both Facebook and Twitter so fans and followers know
who you are and what you do.
Community – The most important part of Social Media. It is not enough to
get fans and followers, you must provide value for them.

not less. And it requires content edited and
packaged in ways that help user access and allow
for advertising placement.
