This process of tagging in some ways is much like  the interactive process confronted when visiting the SMO home page wiki at &lt;a title="SMO wiki" href="http://www.thenewpr.com/wiki/pmwiki.php?pagename=SocialMediaOptimization.HomePage" modo="false"&gt;newpr.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span class="submitted"&gt;The goal of SMO is to leverage new visitors and create them into  ‘&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;loyal site community members&lt;/span&gt;’. Through all of these practices we are trying to  increase our search engine optimization therefore we must remain ‘linkable’.  Through the applications of these practices people will be  able to find us in more ways than one. No longer is it only about rank such as  social engine optimization but it is also about presence,&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt; are we locatable in  numerous spaces and if not, then why? &lt;/span&gt;This is further addressed on &lt;span class="submitted"&gt;&lt;a title="Tangeman's SMO post" href="http://mediamindshare.wordpress.com/2008/03/12/count-me-in-the-social-media-optimization-camp-any-day/" modo="false"&gt;Michael Tangeman recent blog post&lt;/a&gt; which states that since SEO’s  we have moved into SMO’s. Because of this and so much more, I think that the  practice of SMO is something that all communicators should at the very least  familiarize themselves with, in order to keep themselves involved in the  happenings of online corporate community.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span

border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well...still thinking...????.....fine....let me tell u in my own way......letz first start with Social Media,which is hitting the market nowadays much faster than RSS feed.The concept continues to evolve, and more and more internet marketers are looking for the next major way to fully leverage Social Media strategies for clients, products and services.SMO has the ability to attract a lot of web traffic to ur site in such a way which the regular search engines cannot do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we use social media tools such as blog,squidoo etc. to get as much traffic as possible to our site in order to participate in the relevant conversations then SMO is all about increasing the volume and richness of those interactions&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sites that help to SMO our web presence are:-&lt;a href="http://www.squidoo.com/"&gt;Squidoo&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href="http://digg.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Digg&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href="http://del.icio.us/" target="_blank"&gt;Del.icio.us&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/" target="_blank"&gt;YouTube&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href="http://hubpages.com/" target="_blank"&gt;HubPages&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href="http://bluedot.us/friends/dots" target="_blank"&gt;BlueDot&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href="http://www.friendster.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Friendster&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But the question which comes here is that is my website a social media friendly website and have I added the right things which will get my website into the new nurturing field of SMO?&lt;div
