    Thanks for the poster, but you can’t ignore Pinterest for the next version. Digg? Not sure that’s as relevant these days as Pinterest, StumbleUpon or Reddit.

    Completely back up Tim on this one. Include Pinterest, exclude Digg.

    Great tips for beginners, but it should include information about LinkedIn too.  LinkedIn is more business focused and is beneficial for B2Bs.

    As others have mentioned it would be good to include Pinterest for Ecommerce, LinkedIn for B2B businesses, and across the board to detail some of the location based features that tie into these networks for small businesses such as restaurants or bars that want to be discovered locally.

    Hi there, a mostly great infographic – but it’s incorrect in one point: It’s not true that you need to create a personal profile to create a page on Facebook. Yes you can’t use a personal profile for business, it does have to be a page – but you can create a business account used only for maintaining pages/ads, if you don’t ever want to use a personal profile. You can’t maintain more than one account so it’s a definite either/or – but you do have 2 options, not 1. Which is very useful for people who don’t want any personal info on Facebook whatsoever.(I’d also include LinkedIn, and for YouTube, on of my 4 key points would be check the legal stuff before filming/uploading anything!)
