Quick Start & Tips

QUICK START:

1. For BEST Search results, please make your regular Account/Member Name, the same as your Social Network Name. To change your name and photo, click on Settings/Profile/Full Name
2. Read Directory Guidelines - Only valid Social Network Creators and/or their Administrators are approved for final inclusion.
3. THE LIST: This is the actual Categorized List of Social Networks. THE LIST is a secondary Forum with extra fields like Web Address, and an excellent way to add your Social Networks to a searchable list, by Category. Add your Social Networks to THE LIST. You must add your own Listings to be included. It's fast and easy. You can add multiple Social Networks per member account. Please limit 2 Listings per unique Social Network. Select your Categories carefully. The Listings are moderated. If you add listings that do not represent a valid Social Network or contains inappropriate content, these listings will be removed.
4. SPECIAL CATEGORY GROUPS: Be sure to JOIN your Category Groups, up to 2. Find the Category Group(s) on the home page that fit your Social Network Category, and join. That's ALL you need to do for even more exposure to your Network. You can add your links, logos, badges, and Discussions.
