New Social Media Directory for Business

A newly published Social Media Directory for business has a section dedicated to blogging. Though Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter dominate the social networking discussion, blogging remains a powerful way for businesses to speak directly with people who look for answers on the internet.

The number bandied about is that about 67% of people first research on the internet before making a purchase. We just know that's going to increase.

Martin Brossman is the publisher of the Brossman's Social Media and Online Resource Directory for Business, with contributions from about a dozen North Carolina based professionals, with editing and research by Dave Baldwin and Anora McGaha.

Twitter expert and social media guru, Wayne Sutton, contributed to it, as well as Whitney Hill of Carolina Web Consultants, Michele Courtney of TriangleB2B, Pat Howlett of inSideNetworX, the company behind inSide919.com and the inSideAreaCodes.com network of local small business communities... that's just a few of the contributors.
