Why is everbody only wanting to try and market on Myspace? There are so many other Grapevine sites out there like MySpace. Have you read the terms of service on MySpace? Talk about rules like another Nazi Gemany. There is rules forbidding everything in their TOS. I have done some research on social networking sites and visited them. I am so surprised that no one is trying to do any sort of marketing on them. These are all virgin territory.

I have joined some of these other Grapevine sites and this weekend i will spend more time on them. if they all have forums then I will start posting comments with links in my signature. The great thing about these sites is that they are not littered with profiles of Escorts, Hookers, and other's. I have had so many comments post on my MySpace profile from these girls saying they specialize in entertaining men like me. I am not some lonely old man looking for the company of a young escort. Have you looked at the forums on Myspace, there is so much junk posted on there.

I found this great site which lists all the Grapevine sites with ratings from users. I think it is called SocialNetwork.in . Not sure what the .in comes from but it is a great site to find an alternative at. if you want to see a lot of results just visit Google and type in the following exactly "social network",+directory . You can also try it with the s at the end of social network but when I tried it the results came out better without the s.

I would think that if you are a good ethical marketer that you might want to look at the alternatives. You would have so little competition. These sites can be the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for marketers. Just stay away from using them for blatant SPAM. Post useful comments with links in your signature. Some people do this with the blatant SPAM and then we all lose even the ones with good ethics.
