It expresses more from the blogger, its much more entertaining to know what the blogger has to offer than such sites like Twitter where you tweet and its forgotten. Where as a blog it lasts for the viewer and much more helpful, especially if you have great content. Yea blogs are great!

Sure you can build up a loyal subscriber using both because they both contribute traffic in different ways. SEO is so unpredictable at times and there's always new social media sties popping up everyday that you can branch into for more subscribers. 6 in one hand half a dozen in the other.

I believe that social media is very effective in driving traffic to your site and it is not expensive compared to SEO but still I believe using these two in marketing your business would really be helpful.

I wrote about this in a related post here http://bit.ly/28iVda on the back of the data a couple of weeks ago showing that Facebook now accounts for 1 in 4 pageviews in the U.S. There is also a deeper side of the story around repeat (vs. new) customers. In that context, social media coupled with email and sms engagement of an existing base is far more important than search. I've posted quite a bit on that topic also.

Blogs are about building a reputation and personality with a loyal fan/friend base and as long as you are adding value, you should be able to do that very effectively via social networking efforts. I do find, however, that my statistical data shows my blog being viewed by passers-by Googling for people and things I have mentioned in my blog.

I see social promotion as the place where word-of-mouth takes over and search engine marketing as the place where the big fish dominate. They have outranked search engines for me, by far!
