I just wanted to leave a comment saying what a great blog post this is, even though it’s a bit older. The sociable plugin is a great one to have and my tests have shown that lists are much easier to get social media attention as well.

I like the one about the ads. I hate it when I’m on a social network like Myspace and then it covers the whole page with a full advertisement. It turns me off big time. Although, I do believe that content, headlines and pictures are the best way to capturing an audience.

Almost every trait of a good social media is covered. Great post. I think eye-popping headlines, interesting illustrations and ability to vote are 3 of the most important factors.

I think the example of Now Public is a fantastic example of a social site that leverages user generated content in a great way. I’m particularly a fan of their user profiles that incentivize writers to write more. http://www.nowpublic.com/ Of course Yelp is pretty good for this as well.

You hit most of the things right on the head here. I think the blog is a big one because it is a way to engage your website visitors in a social way on your site and keep them coming back to see what else your going to post in the future.
