New Social Media tool Koaky offers free social media exchange

As a blog and website owner the power and potential of social media driving traffic to a website is huge, and utilizing all social media streams to your advantage is one of the key ingredients to a fruitful website.

Now Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Google+, Digg and Stumbleupon are some of largest and best social media streams all website owners should be looking at to grow awareness surrounding their content. The trouble is though, managing ALL of these social media streams can be extremely time consuming, especially if you are a one man band and write the content for your site as well as periodically develop it to make it more navigation friendly. In time, you could become sick of blog ownership altogether and give it up as a bad job (which many of my friends have done).

Today then I have a little bit of news for you in the name of a service named ‘Koaky’, which markets itself as a free social media exchange and can garner a solid following for you. From free twitter followers to more ‘Diggs’, Koaky aims to cut your social media management time in half and allow you the time to write real solid content and concentrate on making your website extremely valuable in its own right (a high number of indexed pages, a solid Google page rank, a low Alexa rank).

All in all, Koaky looks like a promising tool and it is free to sign up and take part in. Unfortunately, to sign up you’ll need to request an invite in order to join, which takes around 24 hours. This is a strange method of sign up, because Koaky doesn’t actually request information from you regarding age and gender (or any ‘spam filtering’ information), making the invite stage one step too many. Mind, I think it might be worth the wait.
