You should do fine with a strong technical background. Research Yahoo contest rules, develop any apps as you may want to add to your Facebook page, create pages for Google+, Twitter, etc... and look at what other websites are doing. Some create blogs, some write articles. We believe it's really more of an art than a science at this point... Welcome to this new world, enjoy!

There are quite a number of websites online that you can use. Try to look for websites that offer a link between social media marketing and SEO. You will need to use the major social media website such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to drive traffic to your website.

Social media marketing is very important to enhance and support search engine optimization efforts as once a page of a site or a link is found by social media users, it can then go 'viral' pointing many links back to the website which in turn is seen as a sign of popularity to the search genies and giving a boost in rankings to the said site.
