I’ll be the first to admit that I haven’t got the time or the inclination to join every social marketing site out there, and neither can you if you are going to make any money at your business.
Pick 3 sites (including one bookmarking site) and spend a few hours a week dedicated to building a presence in those three. How do you choose? Well you have to know your market and where they hang out. You will find a different crowd on LinkedIn vs. MySpace for the most part – so find out where you fit in.
Meanwhile – you are not alone. Others are tired of all the choices too:) Watch this funny music video about the impending social media site bubble over at Jack Humphrey’s site.

I agree with you Lisa. A while ago I wrote a post on this same topic asking my readers when is enough enough. I have a lot of social media accounts and I feel like I have too much. So I’m sticking with the ones I have and not joining anymore. Good post.

You’re dead on Lisa. Right now I am actually tryimg to figire what stes should I submit my blog posts to…I orginally had a list of 35, which Ihave narrowed down to 20. Still a lot f one has to visit them regularly. But dn you thnk we can make a list of sites where just submiting onece every ten days would suffie, while pick 3-4 where you would wanna doo a lot more??

Well, I 'm glad someone has finally said it. I know it's the thing to do to create your brand and get your name out there but sometimes I wonder if it is really is worth it. Picking 3 sites seems like a sensible idea to me.
