Social Networks
The proliferation of online social networking sites has changed the way people communicate with one another. People use these online communities for a variety of reasons. Most people want to get in touch with friends and relatives or want to meet new people. There are also those who use social networks to share content or information. Businesses use social networking sites to boost their sales, generate new leads, increase their market presence, or attract new clients.
Although there are social networking sites that focus on particular groups of individuals that share common interests, there are also those that have open membership. These are the “traditional” sites such as Facebook and MySpace. Users of traditional sites can begin creating their own social networks based on shared interests or goals once they have created their profile.
The two most popular types of services that social networking sites provide are profile-based and content-based services. In profile-based social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace, services are organized around the profile pages of its members, which contain personal information about the individual and which may include photos and other details. In content-based networking sites, the main goal of the users is to share content, photos, and videos. Popular examples of this type of social networking site are Flickr and YouTube.
Whether you decide to build a traditional or niche social networking site with profile-based or content-based services, developing your own social networking site can be a daunting task.
