Social Media Virtual Assistants ?November 29

I have recently taken on two new contracts for Internet Business Development. Part of my contracted services includes assistance with setting up a Social Media plan and corporate blog. I am quickly discovering that there seems to be a shortage of virtual assistants who have the social media knowledge and skills most small internet companies need to continue with the daily management and promotion of their corporate blogs and social media strategies.

There are also many Internet Entrepreneurs and Bloggers out there telling me they simply don’t have enough time to do it all. Here are a few of the common tasks they have said they need help with;

1) Wordpress management (uploading plugins, widgets, wordpress updates, approving comments)

2) Blog promotion ( social bookmarking, carnivals, submitting to directories)

3) Managing Social Media accounts and platforms such as Myspace, Twitter, FaceBook

4) Answering contact emails (gatekeepers)

3) Proofing and publishing blog posts

5) General assistant duties (booking flights, sending mom a mothers day bouquet)

6) Copy writing

7) Managing domain registration and hosting

Managing projects such as  graphic design, writing, and PR

Affordability is an issue, as is finding someone with enough general knowledge to undertake all these tasks.

Wordpress Managment plugin every blogger needsNovember 21

If you follow my tweets you will know I have been searching for weeks to locate a quality plug in that would enhance the management panel of Word Press.

A few of the things I was looking for:

The ability to insert comments on any given post within the management panel. For the purpose of allowing other admins to help me manage each post effectively. For example ” draft complete - please proof before publishing” .

I also wanted a way to easily view, search, and sort, upcoming pending posts. Essentially some enhancements on Word Press’ published on feature that allows you to set a future date for a post.

I haven’t found exactly what I was looking for however, I send my THANKS to  AMY a coworker and the owner of Parent Sphere for finding an amazing WordPress plugin that all my Googling expertise didn’t locate.

This is the BEST Word Press Plug in I have ever tested or used! Admin Management Xtended Plugin. The plug in creates a drag and drop desk top that allows you to manage all your your posts.

Lets take a look at the management dashboard of one of my blogs NOT using the plug in:

10 Twitter things - you need to doNovember 19

1.) Be a person first. List your name on your profile, choose a user name that people will recognize as you, and use a photo.

2) Help others: People often tweet looking for help, directions, ideas, and feedback on their posts or ideas. My rule of thumb is help more often then you ask for help.Which brings me to the next item.

3) Ask for help: Be careful not to go overboard here or you will quickly loose followers. Need ideas for an article, quotes, product reviews, suggestions tweet out your questions.

4) Retweet: According to AJ Vaynerchuk of Blogging Bits “The art of “retweeting” is best described as taking a twitter message someone else has posted, and rebroadcasting that same message to your followers.”  Learn how to retweet at blogging bits .

3) Post updates from conferences: If you are visiting a conference, let others know whats goign on. Most conferences will use a ‘hashtag’. This will allow others to easily see the tweets from any given event. Find out what Hashtag (usually something like #eventname) your event is using and insert it within each of your tweets.

4) Background Screening: Learn about your potential business partners, contractors, and employees by checking out their tweets. I know a tad controversial. If you are a REAL new business management style employer then you will get social media and understand it is an as
