What social media works best with blogs?

-
-
My opinion, as of now-- Best to worst
-
Objective: Attract readers.
-
The benefit from any of these depends on the number of contacts you have. So it pays to build up your contact list. In all cases, people can pass on your post to their friends by clicking Like, Love, +1, or something else.
-
Facebook
Share a link to a blog post with the right interest groups. Good targeting.
Facebook lets you reach people in groups, even if they are not on your contact list. And you can reach people who have shown an interest in the subject you are posting about.
-
MySL
Share a link to a blog post with SL friends and followers.
-
If these people click Love they send the post to their friends and followers. The catchment area is entirely within Second Life, but may be well targeted on people who will be interested in a particular post.
-
Since people can comment on you post, you may trigger a conversation with people strongly interested in the subject. That looks like a good way to get the attention of new readers.

- That question is really bad. Just the kind the journalists ask in the old world media.
- But it gives an opening to rework the question.
- What do you mean by best?
- To answer that, you have to ask "What is the objective?"
