In spite of the rising recognition of Sociable Media and Sociable Social networking Sites, these sites have confronted a number of threats of hacking. Because these sites is used as an excellent platform for maintaining ties, they can still possess some weak factors that make it a favorite goal of hackers. Well-known social networking sites like Facebook, twitter, LinkedIn, or Myspace require users to store personal or also confidential information, and also give their future goal that can be counterproductive and probably will be employed to commit particular criminal offenses on ones' property especially when they are away.

All Sociable Networking Sites are facing privacy concerns and everybody may agree that it eats up time, effort and money which should have been spent on selling houses or finding listings. Like a sinkhole, it will eat up a person's time, money and effort especially if the person doesn't have much self-control in limiting one's use of social media only something necessary forgetting that real estate is not solely performed virtually but in reality.

Some say that ads on social networking sites are annoying. But the house is always divided when it comes to this - the other side would disagree especially if they spend a lot on mass advertising while the other side whose time is money thinks it's maddening. Real estate professionals may be well-informed and updated with the 'next big thing' but the buyers especially the first time buyers who are young couples might not be that acquainted with the new technology that IT, programmers, or bloggers are writing about.

So, how do you change these negative effects to success? Put the World wide web to do the job for you. Yes, social social networking sites can be employed to market properties that targets specific audience. Yes, home buyers and home sellers can be hip and will have accounts in Facebook, twitter, or Myspace, but let's face it. Buyers and sellers are serious enough to social network on Facebook and Twitter, but buy from or sell properties on the Internet.

With or without social networking accounts won't affect your selling real estate, but without Internet presence your real estate business will be negatively affected. Remember that the single biggest factor in selling homes to Internet buyers is the quality of leads and that response time is the main factor that matters.

Every thing has each positive and negative side. But we couldn't say anything is successful unless of course it has served its purpose. We choose Facebook to reconnect with old friends. We go to Twitter to say what we are doing. And we hit property websites to sell or buy properties. End of the story.
