I can do SEO and customise a website/blog and plenty of others design pretty websites - the question is what are you actually trying to achieve.

A better brief might be what are your business goals for the website and then people could respond with proposal to answer your needs.
Maybe you missed this part "I have a requirements brief that I will be happy to send to you."???

Either way, I strongly recommend getting in contact with Indra Chandon

http://www.solutions-answers-results.com.au/

She's very switched on and will be able to do 80-90% of what you're looking for.
Thanks Leela - I'll check that out. I agree with you - I can't actually believe that there are still people out there that don't get web 2.0. It's like them saying the world is flat. These people need to look at www.garyvaynerchuk.com

Twitter has been something I've been considering too but thought I should find my feet with FaceBook first.

As for finding someone that can build a site and then manage the internet marketing of it I think that is possible but difficult. Most specialise in one field and only know a bit about the other.

All the best and many thanks,
Belinda
I think the social media that you use depends upon what sort of business you have - try them all out and see what works. I've found Facebook not very applicable for my business but it works for others. Whatever you do, do one thing - have a look at www.garyvaynerchuk.com - it's highly inspiring.

OMG - I HEART Gary Vaynerchuk ... he is one of the most hilarious speakers ever ...

"There is no reason in 2008 that you should be doing s**t you hate. STOP IT!"

Pacing the stage ... I love his energy!

Actually ... for those who haven't seen it (LANGUAGE WARNING - this is business content but he DOES swear, so avoid if you have an issue with language ... ):

I think it also depends on what you're trying to do with it ... I have found Facebook VERY useful for my business in terms of getting access to people who I would never have had access to in any other way. I've set up partnerships with some of these people and it's looking like it may lead to international speaking opportunities in the future.

Sorry backpeddling a bit here, but Lis you might want to check out this guy
"Free The Future of a Radical Price by Chris Anderson" You can download the audio for free (just search google) and probably the pdf somewhere also.

I have only just started reading it, but just thought it'd relate well to what you said in your previous post.

Process Ninja would be interested in who you eventually get working for you, and seeing the end result also. Hope to see the site in action sometime soon.
