I am stuck. Website (business) is now created and we have very few users for the site. It was developed to help the freelance community and employers on outsourcing work. But it seems if you are not registered with one of the big boys then you remain unseen.
Is there a way to avoid the obvious i.e. not getting further than GO!?
First of all, before answering this question, To set the basics right. Social Media always focuses on bringing brand awareness, where as articles can provide infomation and even bring sales & revenue to the brand. So It solely depends on your end goal, if you are a brand which wants to focus up on Brand awareness, I recommend using Social Media. If you are looking to provide information about your Niche market and educate users, you can go with Articles. I generally follow kuware.com for Marketing related information. Hope this helps you too.

Most definitely a combination of both, but your niche will determine WHICH social media platforms make most sense for you to spend time working on. In terms of social, invest your time where the largest chunks of your user base spend their time - whether it be FB, IG, Pintrest, YouTube, Twitter, Reddit or a niche forum. Get to know the rules and norms of that community so that you can be impactful in a positive way rather than leaving a negative impression of you and your company... The above strategy will get you the most immediately noticeable improviement in terms of traffic. You also want to publish articles on reputable, relevant, non-spammy and authoritative sites that get real traffic, as these will help build authority in the eyes of the search engines, and therefore get you more organic traffic in the long run by virtue of improved rankings. There are 3 types of article sites you may be interested in, depending on your needs and situation: a) Sites that are emerging, don't yet have a ton of authority (Low DA/DR/TF) but a good amount of traffic, or highly targeted traffic b) Sites that are highly authoratative and established, get tons of traffic but also have so much content yours won't necessarilly garner as many referral visits as the previous - as these will help your organic rankings quite a bit or c) Best of both worlds - highly authoritative AND high traffic potential Depending on your niche and your, choose your social network(s) and article sites accordingly That said, I must Emphatically state the answer is definiately BOTH!
