As we are already aware that a social networking website does offer different categories and as well as different communities. So, choosing the best from these kind of filtered out specific interests is not a herculean task. All you need to do is, check their profiles and find out something which interests you and which is common between you. One piece of advice is, do not run after acclaimed people like Darren Rowse, John Chow and other senior bloggers and internet marketing experts as they get at least a few hundred requests per day claiming to be their best friends.
You will just be ignored. If you are starting in the online industry, try to figure out honest bloggers out there who can help you and in turn like to be helped and make a move to ask for their friendship or asking for being a guest author on their websites or blogs.
If they accept, most of them do, create a valuable post based on their niche and set the right keywords so that your post becomes a pillar post on their blog/site. Do not forget to submit the post to multiple social bookmarking websites to increase the traffic. This creates a very good rapport with other bloggers and they would go an extra mile to help you out when you ask them.
This kind of interaction is vital and strengthens your readership and as well as your network. Try to spend a few minutes on commenting on other blogger’s profiles and write on their walls or tweet their blog posts.
