Social network accounts

[Massy]

Just wondering whether this subject has been brought up here before?.

My question is...

What would a social network account be worth with a certain number of targeted friends in it?, an individual account I'm talking about!.

Just curious as to what value you may put on say an account that had 500 poker playing friends on it?.

Personally I think the value should be quite good, what are your thoughts?.

Notice to mods.. Please move this thread if its in the wrong place.

I think this would be very low value tbh, its just another form of low value spam and even if you wanted to generate a fb account with 500 targeted poker friends yourself it wouldnt take very long

I think to see the value as being low and nothing but another form of spam shows you are not on the marketing track at all, in fact, not one little bit.

Firstly, to build an account of 500 takes effort and work, its not done in 5 minutes, have you tried it?.

Secondly, how can you possibly see it as another form of spam?, ok, sure, we have all seen the spam posts and mails from so called gaming friends, but Im talking from a pure and proper marketing point of view.

PS, If no one can see what I mean here, Im certainly not going to spell it out :]

I have many fb accounts with well over 500 targeted friends and it really doesnt take that long, its just an incredibly monotonous task so the only reason I would consider purchasing ready made accounts is for this reason, to avoid tedious work that gives you wrist ache from clicking

People sell fb accounts all the time with a few thousand friends and they really dont sell for much, this info is publicly available in affiliate marketing forums, you see how much they sell for and it isnt much

If you have many, as you say, fb accounts with 500 plus friends in there, that are worthless
, why have more than one?.

If those accounts that you do have are so worthless to you, it only shows what worthless your targetting methods were!!!, or, of coiurse, those that you bought the accounts from!.

Anything that shows and produces low value, fb accounts or otherwise!, shows and provides that low value for a reason, but that low value should never be taken as true across the board!

fb is a free form of promotion so why not take advantage of it, I didnt buy the accounts. I wouldn't waste my money. If fan pages with thousands of targeted fans literally sell for only a couple of dollars then why would you think an account with only 500 targeted friends would sell for a lot?
