I was introduced to a new social network site by a first time commentator in regards to platforms people could use in order to find networks for their particular niche.

For some niches, using a big time search engine (i.e. Google, Yahoo, etc.) might not yield you the type of results that you may wish to have. Whether your topic is too broad or very specific you might not have the time – or the urge – to sift through countless of pages in countless search engines! Even, if you do have that urge, this may help you focus your energy more directly, which as a successful blogger you would like to utilize.

Find A Social Network is an up and coming website devoted to finding social niches. There is a cloud bubble of the most popular searches but the database itself is quite vast and expansive. You will more than likely find something similar, if not an exact, match to your niche.

There is also an ad site feature. If there is a site that you feel should be added, you can submit for it to be included or you could of course, add your own (if you own a network). It’s free, user-friendly and easily accessible.

I tested it out myself (I’m always on the lookout for black women business networking sites) and while plugging my topic into the search engine it pulled up various networks – some that briefly touched on the topic – others, that were direct bulls eyes for what I was looking for. It took less time, it gave me what I wanted in an easy to read format and I left this page thoroughly satisfied in my outcome.

The following is not as high as technorati or any other of the big networking sites but it’s not nearly as cluttered and you will find something that will suit your needs!
