I came across a Social networking website " APSENSE " where one can connect with other professionals and boost up their business through it. But, it takes time after you update your profile picture as well .I have created my account 5 days back but still I am not able to see it and post anything there. As you need to get your profile pic approved before posting onto it. Though its a very good website. You can post your articles create campaigns there and promote them by liking and browsing other websites. You can have your brand page, product page and everything you need. So do anyone of you know about it? Or does it make any sense to get your photograph approved first.?
Personally I don't see any value in it. It's cluttered, full of junk articles, and seems to be populated with people who are desparate to connect to anyone and everyone just to spread their username/profile about. It'll be interesting to see what your experience is - keep us updated as you develop your connections and let us know if you gain anything of value from it.
Yeah you are right. I get many useless contact request just because people want to add. There are no engagement level like its in Facebook Twitter or any other social platform.Though I posted a couple of articles there and they are showing up in SERPs but I don't think that will value much.
I believe Linkedin is the #1 connection site for business professionals. It will lead you to the most connections!
