Hey Dave, small world huh, hehe  what’s up... :) A Big Thanks for putting up the right link. :) I was in a rush and didn’t realize that when I used the "share this" button from my site... somehow url got cut off when it went to the Sphinn page... maybe cuz I wasn’t logged into Sphinn or something. I tryed to edit link after you pointed that out, but it won’t let me... so thanks again for posting the right link.By the way...I’m still gonna email you back, and touch base, etc... it just might not be today or tomorrow, with all the holiday stuff going on... but I will definately get back to you soon.  Thanks again & Talk soon.

I find it hard when I want to promote my affiliate sites using social media since I don’t really have ample knowledge about all the niches that I am in and thus, I end up outsourcing more of the efforts.Promoting a niche using social media is more than just writing articles over and over again. If people direct some specific or "deep" questions about the niche to you believing that you are the expert when you are not, you’re doomed. :)

WayneLiew,Good points that you made Wayne. I suppose it would depend on the niches your involved in. Although, what first comes to my mind is that if your already outsourcing certain tasks for your niches... and if you’ve hopefully got a fairly knowlegdable ghostwriter or personal assistant... why not just lean on there knowledge and have them answer those... "deep" questions that might pop up every now and then. I suppose that would also depend upon the niche, how profitable those niches are to you and if it’s worth scaling to that level. Perhaps some of your niches might be worth using social marketing strategies while others may just be better left for PPC and other methods. I guess, at the end of the day, go with whatever strategy is driving traffic, converting into sales/commissions and paying the bills :)
