What social would be good, what buttons to use
-
Hello,
What social media do you recommend for
nlpca(dot)com
and what kind of buttons convert best for a site like that?
We're working on facebook right now:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-NLP-Coaching-Institute-of-California/187804434598142
So far I like the buttons on the top right of this site: weddingmountain(dot)com.
Thanks!

Currently you have a share Facebook button, however a "like" is much easier for the user (just one click) and still shows up in the user's timeline. I'd suggest changing that to just a "like" button. It wouldn't hurt to have a link to your facebook page as well.
Since your page is so new, I'd ask all your friends and family to like your page so that it looks like it has a few more interested people.
I also agree with Phillip that you'll probably need to test what works best for you. There is no magic number or formula when it comes to placing social buttons.
Hope this helps!

Let's focus on facebook. Do you suggest that we just put the basic 'like' button up for now?

It's nlpca (with an L) not nipca (with an i) I think is why you oculdn't see the site. It shows up fine on this end.

You're probably going to need to test to get the answers to these questions. Those buttons on weddingmountain look good, but that's because they fit into the theme of the site so well. Once you have a theme set up you can find buttons that match, and then you can play with placement to see what works for you.
Also, nipca doesn't seem to be a site yet.... I got the default GoDaddy page when I visited it.

Recommended Social Media Scheduling platforms
I am currently using BufferApp to schedule my social media posts. My scheduling gets messed up at least once per month, where I lose posts or days are skipped, etc. without any changes (and even when I can see the expected schedule). I have used Hootesuite in the past and I like it, but I prefer Buffer when it works. Is there something else that works as good as Buffer used to? Thank you.

Yoast Social Accounts URL Section
Hi When you click: Social within Yoast plugin it defaults to 'Account' tab and displays a list of fields to enter your social media account urls. Sentence above list says: "To inform Google about your social profiles, we need to know their URLs. For each, pick the main account associated with this site and please enter them below" What does that mean exactly and does it effect links on the site etc or literally is just Yoast telling G ? Also if you have sub sites for different language versions (WP on Multi User setup), which in turn have their own language specific social media account versions , should you enter those urls in the sub site language version own Yoast plugin fields OR , as per "...pick the main account associated with this site and please enter them below" use the primary social account and not the language specific social account or just leave them blank ? Many Thanks Dan

Implementing Pinterest On Site and Social Snippets
Hi can someone confirm, does Pinterest use Open Graph Protocol? If you use the Pinterest Widget builder - http://business.pinterest.com/widget-builder/#do_pin_it_button Will the image you place in the widget replace the image Pinterest selects if it does use the Open Graph Protocol? The site already uses Open Graph Protocol for Facebook and Google+. It also uses Twitter cards for twitter. It would be good if we don't need to add more html (such as from the Pinterest widget builder) for Pinterest. -- Matt

Using BUFFER in Social Sharing
Hello everyone, I am inclining to use a platform from which to post my social content. I use mainly facebook, twitter, linked in, google +. I used Hoot, but found it difficult to include Linked In, and several other social media sites. Somebody has experience using BUFFER? Ive read about it, and it seems great! Would you recommend it? Thanks for your comments,

How to best promote this content via social media to gain backlinks
I have created this content http://www.musicliveuk.com/live-music/the-worst-function-bands-and-wedding-bands-ever in order to promote it via social media. Ideally I want it to be shared across the web in order to gain backlinks. My question is how can I best do this? I know I can post it on twitter, facebook, google plus etc... but is that it? I'm new to social media and don't really understand how to use it to good effect. By posting it on social networking sites am I risking people copying the content and duplicate content penalties? Any help would be much appreciated!

Sherpas for a journey of best practices for social media marketing?
What are early-stage (0-6 months) best practices for social media marketing in a business to business market? Our customers are professional buyers of electronic components. We are doing it backwards. We registered Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and a few more. +5 for initiative. -5 for not having a social media marketing plan. -5 for not having someone helping us who really knows how to engage with our audience. This is also a humble request to SMM gurus out there who have room for a new client. I'm looking for our sherpa. Thanks!
