How do they do that ?

I came across a handy little toy the other day that has some interesting applications for those playing in social spaces for fun and profit. It’s called User Name Check.com

Where is Your Username registered

This funky little application searches a TON of the more popular social media, networking, book marking and multimedia websites to see if a given username has been taken. While that is, on the surface, pretty cool, there are a few things your can do with it such as:

  • Researching company/website names – if you are starting a new company or website, you could definitely use this in co-ordination with domain name research to ensure the best possible choices. If there are SMM elements in your marketing plan, certainly something to look into.
  • Securing all profiles for SMM campaigns – obviously if you have a new client/business/website and are including elements of a social media marketing campaign, this tool is wicked handy. There are so many listed that it makes securing all the relevant ones a much easier task. It also helps when researching the potential usernames to ensure you get one that is fairly Virgin across the majors.
  • Researching targets for marketing campaigns – let’s say you’re crafting some link bait and want to target various social media influencers, this tool would be great to stalk them and really understand what types of content might appeal to them. Cyber stalking is made easy with this little bad boy.
  • Monitor the competition – you can also use it to keep a close eye on the competition by identifying profiles and setting up some monitoring.

This little toy should definitely find its way into your social media marketing toolbox. Great for business and stalking too.

Have a good week-make it a great one
