I’ve asserted that B2B social media tactics vary from B2C, in that they are typically rooted in consumer education and thought leadership, and thus require deeper layers of interaction. Linkedin Groups vs. Twitter. Twitter is even narrower at 36% – 46%. Private brand communities vs. Facebook. Podcasts vs. YouTube.

A little over a year ago, I shared a case study on Search Engine Watch of a client’s website that had fewer than 100 pages of content indexed when we started working with them. Case studies? If you were to check the number of pages indexed in Yahoo today, you would see that they have over 3,600 pages indexed.

There’s no market for reselling Facebook fans or Twitter followers. Ultimately, companies need to make money, save money, or both via social media.
