What Is Social Media Marketing?

Social media marketing is the marketing strategies that smart businesses are
employing in order to be a part of a network of people online. Just as friends gather
in public pubs, coffee shops, or barber shops, groups of people are gathered and
connected through various online tools and websites. These people rely on their
online network of friends for advice, sharing, and socializing.
Many different styles of online communities have surfaced over the years. However
within the last few years, newly created communities are offering more rich
interaction. These marketing strategies allow conversation, connection, and a sense
of community among its members.
