Before recommending services and explaining why to use them, let me explain one thing, social media and social networking are two different things, you should not mistake one for the other. Social media allows visitors to find new information about a certain business or product through services such as websites or blogs whilst social networking allows visitors to find new information about a certain company or persons daily life such as Facebook or Twitter.

One service you should definitely invest time into for your website is blogging. By blogging you are allowing search engines to find new information all the time through new posts. By strategically placing links within your blog search engines are able to find and locate your website through the blog, optimising your website in the process as well as your blog.

Another service worth looking into is creating a page on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is one of the top 10 websites in the world and by having a page about your company your website will receive a new flow of traffic.

Another under rated service which can help optimise your website is YouTube. By uploading a video on YouTube you are able to attract audiences who find their information through videos instead of text.
