That's good to start with. I think you should make a profile on LinkedIn too. Their professional community is very strong and you can make some strong connects on LinkedIn.
A rough breakup of average users on each of the popular network goes like this:
Facebook: 1.35 billion
LinkedIn: 332 million
Instagram: 300 million
Twitter: 284 million
and so on.
PS: Please note that above estimation is 2-3 months old.

Nice one @Eric Hutcheson, here are the latest stats of average users on each of the popular network though:

1. Facebook: 1.415 billion
2. Linkedin: 347 million
3. Instagram: 300 million
4. Google+: 300
5. Twitter: 288
6. Tumblr: 230

I use all the social networks I mentioned except for Instagram and LinkedIn. I also use VKontakte which has grown to 100 million active users each month.

Depends on the Niche too , on which niche I have to run the campaign according to that I choose my Social media platform.

It is commonly suggested that to increase your brand presence, you need to be active on all forms of social media. While that may be true, unless your company has a dedicated social media coordinator, finding the time to maintain every platform out there can be extremely time consuming.
here is our guide to choosing the best platform for your business, and how to make the most out of them.

1. Twitter
Who should use it: Everyone – from individuals to the largest multinational corporations
2. Instagram
Who should use it: Lifestyle, food, fashion, personalities and luxury brands
3. LinkedIn
Who should use it: Businesses especially B2B service providers, Recruiters and Job-Seekers
4. Facebook
Who should use it: Everyone and their grandmas
5. Google+
Who should use it: Brands already on the other major social networks, B2B networking, bloggers

I don't think niche can affect to traffic when promoting on social networks. It depends on which way you will use to promote on them.

 

[Jonathan]

I use Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. Now I'm thinking about Pinterest, but still not sure.

 

[rwill76]

I find Twitter to be the best social media. Facebook is not good for our industry.

 

[Naveen Karma]

I am using Facebook and Twitter only .... this

 

[ulterios]

I use Facebook, Twitter and Google+ mostly.

Twitter is the one I use the most because it has generated the most traffic for my sites from all social media networks. Facebook comes in second behind Twitter.

I plan on expanding into different social networks at some point as time permits.

 

[dedica]

I use Facebook and Twitter

 

[Dean]

I use Twitter and Facebook for most of my site promoting that I do on social media. I dabble in some of the other big social media platforms but just haven't got the results that compare to my main two.

I do think it really depends on what your site is about though and I guess mine just work better on Twitter and Facebook.

Cheers, Dean.

Well it depends who you are targeting or what sort of business you are into. If yours is B2B company go for Linkedin simply because corporate professionals love to hang out on it. On the other hand if yours is a B2C company choose Twitter, facebook or pinterest simply because it allows you to play with images, videos etc.

You can use any social network to promote your website or blog.
Please prefer highly authorised media network like : Facebook , twitter and more.

 

[Kania]

The social media websites that I am using right now to promote my blog are Facebook the most and then a little bit of promoting on Google Plus, Pinterest and Twitter.

When I learn more about social media marketing I will try other social media websites.

 

[KeralMTG]

I use facebook for most of the promoting for my blog but sometimes I use google plus and twitter. Facebook just gets more people giving likes and going to my blog so I like it much better than the others. Some people say google plus is good for seo so I do a little on there some times.

 

[John11]

Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest and instagram are the most famous social media platforms and these channels are also loaded with million of users. Mostly companies focus on twitter and Facebook to increase their product sales but we should decide the social media channels based on the targeted audience. It is always advice-able for marketers to choose the social channels where their targeted audience spend most of their time.

 

[Smith-K]

I use all the three that you have mentioned along with Youtube and Instagram. I believe the more social sites the more exposure for your brand. The algorithm for engagement is the same, it's just that one needs to create compelling posts.

 

[david smith]

I use Facebook, Twitter and Google+ for the promotion of my blogs and website. While promoting the post webmaster must make a note of the most pleasant time when to post as it increases the reach and engagement of the posts.
