Whether you are an individual or a brand, if you’re active on the social web, you have a wide range of services to choose from to express yourself online. Facebook, Twitter, WordPress, Delicious, YouTube, Flickr and LinkedIn are only a few of the several services out there, each tailored to offer specific ways of engagement. If you are the average user, you are on atleast 3 of such social networks, and it is a challenge to create an all-in-1 presence to share your collective identities from across these services. It’s also a challenge to easily share with friends and fans the various social profiles that you belong to and encourage them to visit and engage on all of them.

GizaPage.com developed its social network organizer to serve this very purpose. GizaPage helps users and brands manage their online presence by consolidating their many social media profiles side by side under a personalized URL.

The premium features that are being introduced today were created with an objective to give users and brands more tools with which they could present and market themselves on the social web. A special thanks to all our users who chipped in with feedbacks and suggestions that have helped shape these features.

1. Custom URLs (normally $4.95 per month – free for a year if you sign up before September 2009)

For users and brands who want more personal branding on their social presence, GizaPage introduces Custom URL mapping – using which you can map your gizapage to your own http://yourdomain.com and if the domain is in use, to an alternative sub-domain such as http://social.yourdomain.com. Friends would now be able to access all your social profiles directly from your personal domain or sub-domain.

2. 1Click GizaCards

For users and brands who wish to encourage friends and followers to engage with them across all their social footprints, GizaPage introduces the 1Click GizaCard which can be embedded as a hyperlinked image or HTML code into blogs, social profiles, email signatures, word documents, etc. Using 1 click, the card opens all the social profiles of the user or brand organised side by side on a GizaPage

3. Custom backgrounds and profiles

For users and brands who want to make their profiles look unique, GizaPage introduces custom backgrounds and profiles to help them express a little more about whom they are, the way they want to.

4. Basic statistics

For users and brand who wish to analyse the effectiveness of their social presence, GizaPage introduces basic statistics that allows users to get an overview of the number of visits to their gizapage and also individually to their respective profiles.

5. Account updates via email

Users and brand owners will also receive network updates via email that will summarize their account activity on GizaPage. The update will contain basic statistics, new friends, added profiles, connection requests, among other notifications to give users a snapshot of their account activity.

.

We hope you find these features useful and look forward to your feedback, comments and suggestions on them and also on new features that you’d like us to consider for our future upgrades.

Our promise is to continue developing unique products and features that help you create your web 2.0 social identity and get organized on the social web.
