If you put a bad image out there, you can be remembered for that as much as you will be remembered for a good image. So those who own websites / blogs / forums need to watch how them brand themselves, putting themselves in the most favorable light, as well as presenting themselves in a very special and interesting light, so that they'll be remembered! Another important thing about branding is that an individual or company should consider what he'd like to be remembered MOST for. For instance, if a person or business on Twitter tweets about many, many subjects, it may confust his followers as to his brand. So he must think about how he wants to be branded on Twitter and what his purpose is, and stick to it. Now, as we are not such extremely narrow individuals, I don't believe we have to be completely boxed in and can only talk about one thing on twitter if we are a business or an individual, but I'm saying that perhaps we may not want to talk about 100 different things. We need to narrow our focus down to a few things. If we can't do as such, perhaps we need to get more than one account. We need to consider how others see us, and how we want to be branded. Having said all that, I still believe we don't have to be in a box and only talk about ONE subject -- for instance, if I stol potatoe chips I'd talk about more than potatoe chips. I am a blogger and tweeter that talks about many things! Maybe that's how I brand myself -- diverse! Works for me,, anyway!<br><br>krissy knox : )<br>connect w me on twitter: <br><a href="http://twitter.com/iamkrissy" rel="nofollow">http://twitter.com/iamkrissy</a> I believe all bloggers are branding themselves, whether for the better or for the worse.

Most people fail to brand themselves online because they feel that they don't have any value to offer their audience. Everyone has to get out of this mindset and start branding themselves as an expert or authority figure This is something that a lot of people seem to miss.
