But, if you wish to reach more visitors who are more engaged with your content, optimizing your site for interaction with social networks like Facebook and Twitter etc, Social Media Optimization (SMO), can be even more significant. SMOfor social media networks is to develop a presence on one or more social networks. Building mutually beneficial relationships with a specific audience is a key to social networking. Twitter, LinkedIN and Facebook are examples of social media that offer fantastic opportunities to market your Web site and connect with your peers, special interest groups, and customers. Now as hundreds of millions of people are active participants in social media sites and thousands more are signing up every day.

During the same time period the amount of time users spent on Twitter increased by a whopping 3,712%.This phenomenal growth in the time being spent on social networking on the Web is an indication of not only the popularity of social networking sites with the massesbut also a measure of their “stickiness” There are two things. SMO and SMM. SMO refers to the processof refining a website (optimizing it) so that it’s awarenessand content are easily spread through social mediums and online communities by users and visitors of the website. Such as improving the design and usability of the website so that it becomesmore compelling to users, in an effort to help them spread it through social media sites. The simplest example of SMOis represented by all the “digg this” and “add to delicious” icons and links that are all over the web today. If you are actively tweeting or posting new content on social networking sites you can add widgets to your web site that make it easy for visitors to stay up to date with your latest tweets and posts. Adding these widgets to your site makes social networkers aware of your presence on social media sites and gives them one-click option to follow your tweets or become a fan.
