40 % Growth in Social Network sites & the Top 100

I am starting this blog because there is an explosion of interest in social networking websites. What particularly fascinates me is to meet people all over the world and one way to do that is to find other blogs from people in other countries
and make comments on them. The first time I did that was on

http://sevensisters.blogspot.com . Here is what I had to say:

"Dear Rupankar,

Thank you for mentioning me on your blog. I have never traveled to India, but I have worked with many Indian software engineers and database administrators. I only know how to say "Doneevhad" in Hindi but I intend to study Hindi in about 2 years from now.

I realize many Indians have been to Germany through Lufthansa flights,but I do not believe many Indians have seen much of the Ukraine. Please take a look at that portion of my website:
Discount Travel & Photography and


Travel in Ukraine


I hope you enjoy the photography.

God bless,
Will Stewart"

Another way meet people from other countries is to start many web pages on different social networking sites. According to FriendsWin.com, social networking websites are expected to grow by 40% in the next 18 months. So considering this enormous opportunity, I am personally urging you to join as many social networking websites as seems appropriate to your situation. I have tried to develop a MySpace website twice and ,although I have never done anything improper,according to MySpace's terms and conditions, both times my site has just disappeared without
a trace. There was no warning and no technical support to contact who could tell me what happened. MySpace is owned by Rupert Murdoch. Enough said. Plus MySpace volume has probably peaked and has gotten too much bad publicity to use as an internet marketing platform.


Here are some of the more serious social networking platforms you should consider in marketing your affiliate programs, niche home businesses and master resell rights software:


1.AdlandPro.com ,


2.My profile in FaceBook.com
,


3.FriendsWin.com
,

4.Search Big Daddy.com ,

5.Yuwie.com - Surf and Get Paid For It,

This is the list of top 100 social networking sites sorted by popularity according to Alexa ranking with their Google PageRank.
