Another way to increase your friends on your My Space Profiles is to become a featured profile on a high traffic MySpace related site. Again, my space graphics offers featured profiles on their front page and a profile train which you can join for free. Usually a featured profile will get you more friend adds than simply joining a friend train but every little bit helps.
After you accumulate a fair amount of friends you can do a few more things to promote your website, band, talent, or business. After you become someone's "friend" you are able to post comments on their pages. Most will even allow you to include live links in your comment on their page. It's helpful if you include some type of personal message about that person or their profile above the link. You can also send a message or an email directly to any person on my space graphics, however I find this method to be the least effective for advertising/promotion. It's a good way, however, to network with other people with the same interests as yourself.
One last, and very effective way to promote or advertise is through the use of bulletin posts. Bulletin posts are messages/advertisements that are sent out to everyone on your friends list. They are not considered spam because these people have agreed to be your friend and accept everything that goes along with that. Allowing bulletin posts and comments go along with being a "friend". You'll need to think of a catchy title for your bulletin post in order to increase the likelihood of it actually being read. It's a good idea to view other people's postings to get an idea of what kinds of things get your attention. Beware however that if you bulletin too often or use the same title every time, you may be deleted from some people's friends lists thereby undoing some of the hardwork that you did.
MySpace, it seems, is around to stay. It is a great way to promote yourself, your business, your cause, your dog, or whatever it is that you want to get out there. Don't overlook this easy tool in your quest for advertising and promotion. Big name companies, celebrities, models, actors and lots of others have recognized what an important tool MySpace can be, you should too. . . .
