To promote my business, I’ve tried a variety of sites with mixed results. I like MediaBistro for job hunting and resources, and Freelancers Union for even more excellent resources. And of course I’m on LinkedIn and Facebook (and MySpace and Twitter, sheesh!). I have even played with nifty buttons like the one below for promoting myself:

All of these sites help me promote my writing business, and draw readers to ChronicBabe.com. But I have yet to find a useful resource for posting my clips and qualifications, so I stick with my Orange Grove Media site (soon to be redesigned).

So what are you using? Undoubtedly, there are other sites for web designers, photographers, graphic designers and more. I would love to know what all our members are using to spread the word about their businesses.

There were only two sites added to About.com’s Top 10 Employment site this year. www.linkedin.com and www.realmatch.com. Linkedin is taking off!

New Top 10 List here!
