Social media marketing is quite frustrating. The rules seem to change every time you think you understand the right methods of how and when to share to social media.

Top 10 Misfit Children Nuggets from 2015 daily-golden-nugget-1456-24
Bloggers have an unyielding passion to write and share their expertise with the world. Unlike a freelance writer for hire that is paid to create an editorial, most passionate bloggers write because they care greatly about the topic, and many do it for free. Those of us who write for free are often disappointed by posts that don't get the attention we wish they did; after all our blog posts are our children and we want our children to grow up and be successful and not unacknowledged misfits.

by
Maybe You Need More Conversions Rather Than More Visitor Traffic daily-golden-nugget-1178-29
