Safety Tips for Social Networking Sites

Unfortunately beside the benefits of using Social Networking Sites there are dangers. As development team of oldtraffordbook we are very interested to keep our young niche social networking site as safe as it is possible. We are at the early phase of development (pre official launch) but safety, reliability and trustiness matters in oldtraffordbook.

Oldtraffordbook offers you the change to restrict the access of your personal information and your posts through “profile edit suit”. Think before you post, free of speech is a fundamental right but you have to respect others and also you have to limit the exposure of your ideas to strangers.

The US Federal Trade Commission recommeds to:


(1). Think about how different sites work before you join.

(2). Think about keeping some control over the information you post.

(3). Keep your information to yourself.

(4). Make sure your screen name doesn’t say too much about you

(5). Post only information you are comfortable – other to see.

(6). Remember that once you post information online, you can’t take it back.

(7). Flirting with strangers online could have serious consequences. Because some people lie about who they really are, you never know who you really dealing with.

(8). Be wary if a new online friend wants to meet you in person.

(9). Trust your gut if you have suspicions.
