You must be always looking for the best social networks to grow your business and always want to go out
for the one thats going to be the next hit like Facebook ,Twitter and Linkedin…
i am going to give the list of the 7 top and upcoming social networks you wont like to miss in year 2013 to
grow your business or professional network.
The list is exclusive to the year 2013 and start with
1 : PHEED
The pay-as-you-go social network. Why ever share your gorgeous photos, funny videos and brilliant
observations with the world for free on Facebook and Twitter and even Youtube, when you can sell them?
That’s the logic behind Pheed, a social network launched in October 2012. It gives users — currently

2. mainly celebrities, musicians and entertainment types — the option of monetizing their ―pheeds.‖ For a
monthly subscription fee, ranging from $1.99 to $34.99, ―pheeders‖ can offer subscribers access to a
media-rich stream of text, photo, audio, video and even live broadcasts. Stars like Miley Cyrus and Paris
Hilton are already on their board.
2. THUMB
Personal crowdsourcing. Say you have no idea what shirt to match with your new jeans. Snap a photo,
upload to Thumb and crowdsource the decision. Simple questions typically generate hundreds of thumbs
up or thumbs down, plus comments, from the network’s very active user base, sometimes within minutes.
Appealing to the twin social impulses of vanity and voyeurism, Thumb generates serious engagement
among users (reported to be around four hours a month, second only to Facebook among established
networks) and seems poised for growth in 2013.
3. MEDIUM

3. The invitation-only social network. Social networks have dramatically lowered the bar for sharing
information with people around the globe. But has the bar slipped too low? That’s the question posed
by Medium, a new, invitation-only network from the creator of Twitter. In an attempt to wean us off of cat
photos, Gangnam Style and Justin Bieber updates, Medium emphasizes longer form, carefully crafted
content (like this story on growing up in Saudi Arabia) from users with something of deeper value to share.
In many respects, it resembles a carefully curated blog network. While creators are limited to the select
few, everyone can read and comment.
4. CHIRPIFY

4. Buy with one Tweet. Remember how revolutionary it felt when Amazon introduced 1-Click payments for
online shopping? Chirpify takes that concept into the social media era. Sellers offer stuff for sale on
Twitter or Instagram (T-shirts, concert tickets, new albums, whatever). You reply with the word ―buy‖ and
it’s yours. No credit card. No ―proceed to checkout‖ or ―add to cart.‖ The entire transaction is conducted
through your Twitter account. Apart from buying and selling, Chirpify can also be used for fundraising,
giveaways and – most fascinating of all – peer-to-peer payments. Need to pay a buddy back for this
morning’s coffee? Just tweet ―pay‖ and the amount to his Twitter handle. Chirpify is free to use but takes a
5% cut anytime you get paid.
5. FLAYVR
Bringing order to photosharing. Smartphones have made it ridiculously easy to take photos and video,
but gorgeous shots from last week can end up lost deep inside the camera roll. Flayvr may be the most
intuitive and aesthetically pleasing of a wave of new social apps bringing law and order to your collection.
Photos and videos are automatically organized into eye-catching albums based on date, complete with
location and even titles sucked in from your iPhone calendar. With a tap, you can share the album as a

5. splashy HTML5 webpage via social networks or email. It’s also a great alternative for privately sharing big
collections of photos.
6. CHIRP
Sharing using sound. For sheer ―wow‖ factor, Chirp may take the prize in 2013. Say you want to instantly
share a photo or link with a roomful of people. There are plenty of options out there, but they all have
drawbacks. Networks like Instagram or Facebook are members-only. Email requires typing in multiple
addresses. Bluetooth has to be paired device by device. Chirp, however, is different. Your phone emits a
high-pitched, two-second-long, robotic squeak. Other phones within audio range pick up the sound and
instantly download the photo or message. Chirps can be shared in a boardroom or a crowded bar, broadcast
over loudspeakers to reach huge audiences or even embedded in YouTube videos or TV programs.
7. CONVERSATIONS

6. Social networking for companies. Full disclosure: Conversations, a tool that brings social networking
into the office, is made by my company, HootSuite. Having said that, I’m not the only one excited about it.
ReadWrite called it ―AIM on steroids.‖ Instead of getting lost in long email chains, team members
collaborate in real-time by posting on message boards, Facebook-style. Anyone can be invited to join a
conversation, enabling customer support teams to rally around issues, marketing teams to coordinate
campaigns, etc. Social media has revolutionized how we communicate in our personal lives – Why not
bring some of those benefits into the workplace?
Guys get working with these sites and see how you can make it work for you..
