Social networking is considered by many to be the main form of mass media in the world. That is the reason why so many business owners and entrepreneurs have turned to social sites to get their company on the map. There are a ton of different networking sites on the web but many of them go unseen with the exception of the major ones (Facebook, Twitterand LinkedIn). These “undercover” websites can be just as effective and especially make an impact for small businesses and their owners. Some of the best sites for small business owners include Qapacity and Youtube.Qapacity is a great website for small businesses and it is strongly suggested that owners should use these as part of their marketing effort. There are a ton of social sites specifically made for businesses but this one takes it a step further. At Qapacity, owners can build a free website that can either sell product or promote a business or pretty much do anything they would like. Heres where the differences come in between Qapacity and the rest of the sites. Most sites stop at that point and do nothing more for the business owner but at Qapacity, they offer opportunities to interact with other owners, promote to new clients and much more. For example, the site has forums that can provide new clients or different business owners with insight on their specific site or their business. They also have options that can advertise their website on a different owners website.Another somewhat unknown site is called ConstantContact Community and is somewhat similar to Qapacity but has some different features that make it extremely useful for small business owners. This site provides owners with tools to obtain email lists to reach thousands of tentative clients. It also has the option of implementing an online survey tool through their site, which can subject an owner’s business through the use of survey.

When most people look at the world of social media and networking, Youtube is not the first thing that comes to mind. For most, Youtube is just a website with a ton of funny videos and a huge network of file sharing. What many do not realize is that Youtube is full of advertisements and opportunities to advertise. This is one of the top 5 most networked sites in the world and on every page there is multiple options where businesses can advertise. For a small business the advantages of using this site could make their business into a household name.

These sites along with many other sites can provide small businesses the exposure that they need. Besides the major social sites there are a ton of different sites that can do wonders for a company.
