Just ran across this really great post talking about social marketing and your profile pictures for Facebook, Twitter, Myspace and all the other places that you have profile pictures. It was talking about ten items that you don't use as your profile picture.
A few of these hit home:
1.“Trying To Be Sexy” Profile Picture. If you're not decent you're not getting added to my profile. I chose friends carefully.
2.“Blurred” or “Too Dark” Profile Picture. This one really bugs me, if I can't tell who you are, there's a good chance I'm not going to add you as a friend.
3.“Your Pet” As Your Profile Picture. "Do I know You?"
4. The "Faraway" Profile Picture. It is never fun to try and figure out who someone is.
5. The “No Picture At All” Profile Picture. This is the worst offense of all. Please put up a profile picture if you are using social media sites. People want to see you. And I have heard time and time again that people oftentimes won’t connect with people without pictures. Social media is “social.” So, show us who you are!
