Web 2.0 opponents argue that new social media sites could negatively impact online content, as well as threaten the legitimacy, ethics and legality of web 2.0. Others raise concerns over the use of data and the extent of data sharing. Defenders insist that these issues are inevitable because they have been with the medium since its inception. They argue that widespread censorship, based on vague elitism, is an alternative. It is not clear which side is correct.
Social media networks
Social media networks allow users to engage by sharing and dialoguing. These social media platforms have been proven to improve attentional focus and emotional engagement. This means that future research on social media networks should explore how to engage diverse stakeholders in a meaningful way. However, it is not yet possible to establish the exact outcomes of engagement. Here are some points to keep in mind.
Video sharing sites
YouTube, one the most successful and popular Web 2 0 video sharing sites, was purchased by Google 20 months after its launch. YouTube is not the best destination for videos online, but it is becoming a resource hog. It uploads twenty hours per second. Among its many uses, YouTube has hosted everything from JetBlue's CEO's apology video to questions submitted during the 2008 U.S. presidential debate. And, fifty percent of its three hundred million users visit the site at least once a week, according to the company.
Blogs
A well-written blog will contain content on many different topics. Web 2.0 requires that bloggers include links to other authoritative websites. Most blogs have a link to the homepage and a contact page. It is important that the first post be welcoming. You should not overthink the content of your first post. Be informative and keep the topic of your blog in mind when writing the first post. If a blogger writes about politics, links should be provided to the official website.
Content that is created by people
Innovation is a key source of the Internet's user-generated content. Ten years ago, the world was based on the transmitter and receiver model. This has been changed by Web 2.0, which makes it easier for people share their ideas and knowledge. Almost anyone can create a radio station or blog. Even YouTube stars went to school, and experts have distinguished themselves on blogs. Anyone can make an opinion and gather huge amounts of data.
Shopping cart applications
These advanced systems are compatible with a website's frontend, and can be used in place of traditional shopping cart software. The frontend component of these applications displays information about the products in a store to the customer. The admin (or backend) is responsible for processing orders. The shopping cart application can also be used by businesses to integrate their administrative functions with customers' browsing experiences. An integrated website and shopping cart system is known as an "eCommerce platform".

Once you have written your press statement, it is time to distribute it. Next is to find the right channels that will get your message across. Here are five top options:
Traditional Methods
You may already have a list containing publications where your press release should be submitted. These may include local newspapers, magazines, trade journals, industry newsletters, and blogs.
Many publications charge submission fees or offer incentives for writers who submit stories. Some publications, for example, offer subscriptions free of charge for every published story. Some publications offer a percentage from the revenue generated for each article sold.
While submitting your press release through traditional means is still an option, most experts recommend going online.
Online Channels
Online channels are a great way to reach potential readers. Online news sites such as Google News, Yahoo!, Bing News, AOL, and Yahoo! offer opportunities for press releases to be published on their websites.
Google News was launched in 1996. They provide news feeds from the major media outlets. It's easy to find your company's name among hundreds of other companies.
Yahoo! Yahoo! News provides similar services, but is focused on news about specific topics. If you search for your company's name, you'll see links to articles related to your business.
BING NEWS allows users to search keywords on its network of websites. This can be very useful when you are trying to find information on a specific topic.
AOL News provides similar services to Yahoo! and Google News. AOL isn't as well known as the other giants but it does provide a quality service at an affordable price.
Some publications permit you to create your own press releases. Most publications charge a monthly subscription fee. Many websites offer press releases for free.
These include PRWeb. Press Release Monitor. PR Newswire. Business Wire.
PR Web, founded in 1997, claims it is the largest site dedicated exclusively to press releases. It has more than 1,000,000 registered members. Access to thousands of press releases, posted by businesses across the globe, is available to users.
PR Web offers an RSS feed, which automatically updates your website whenever someone posts a press release.
PR Newswire is another excellent resource for finding press release information. They claim to have one of the largest databases of press release information.
They offer an RSS feed so you can keep up to speed with the latest news from the press release space.
Print Media
Print media might be the way to go if you're looking to reach a wider audience than just online journalists. Many small businesses don't realize how powerful they can be with print media.
Print ads are a great way to promote new products if you have a business that sells clothing, books, or electronics. You can also advertise in magazines or newspapers.
If you are looking for something different, look into the "free" section in your local paper. You may find advertising jobs in classifieds.
You can also try contacting local radio stations or television stations. They might accept press releases as part their regular programming.
Press Releases Aren't Dead
Everyone seems to be talking about mobile apps these day. But did you know that press releases are still very much alive? Press releases are more important than ever.
People expect immediate results in today's world. Your message must be delivered to the right people if you want your message to be heard. This requires that you use every channel to communicate your message.
That doesn't necessarily mean throwing money at Facebook ads. Think outside of the box and explore creative options to connect with your customer.
The bottom line is that word-of-mouth is the best method to grow your business. Your customers will tell their friends and family about your business. It is important that your customers are informed about your business before others.
