Many Small businesses are using Social Networking Websites to promote their Business. This kind of advertisement has become incredibly popular because its extremely easy, fast and in most cases free of charge. Businesses are able to build pages which include various practical and essential features such as; photos, videos and music on the site to alert the general public. They can easily share information and interact with so many users from different cities, countries and even continents 24/7.

Yes i Definitely agree, for a small business, social networks became a free, easy and a popular way of advertising. It doesn't cost anything to a business to put up a Facebook advertisement, and not only that, but you can target it towards a specific group of people!
Facebook is also being used a lot in the entertainment industry where night club owners, DJ's post their parties and get to advertise them for free for their contact list of their promoters contact lists. There are also a payed advertasiment where we can create a marketing campanign and send out e-flyers for an specific Facebook Network. Do you think it will take long until they start to sell tickets for those events?

Yes - I agree that SN's are definitely a great tool for smallto medium sized businesses, dj's and especially non-profits.
I currently voluteer for Habitat for Humanity and found that one of our most successful marketing tools for our last event was.....Facebook! We used the tool to spread the word and I specifically asked people that I knew where hip connectors to help and promote the event. I was really impressed with both the support from other FB friends and the ability for the viral marketing to take place using this tool!
