All these three Social media sites are important for any type of business.

 

Though if we have to select one from these then I would go with Facebook due to its popularity.

You have to think first "Why I need to choose this channel"

All the channels are effective, but you need to know & understanding how to use them in smart why.

what I suggest, if you have any campaign, you need to choose all the channel but don't use the same content or banners, try to have a varied of content and banners having the same "Slogan" for the campaign.

A very tough question....

I would choose one networking site based on my client requirement..

For example,

If my client has local store, then i may prefer to target more in twitter.. Because, twitter can help me to target my local specific audience and hence can get some leads.....

If my client business is mainly an ecommerce site that target a country, then i will go with facebook. Because i can increase my fan community in facebook easily and hence can reach them out anytime when i add new products in website..

If my client handles a blog, then  i would suggest Google+ . This help me to index articles faster in search engines & can reflect user comments of articles on my website as well as all google products instantly including my google+ page, youtube etc...

 

Afterall, Google+ is must to increase the visibility of any type of business. Hence, I prefer to use Google+ along with twitter or Facebook....

I Like Twitter best because:

-You can easily reach ANYONE DIRECTLY, even top CEOs and get response - no middleman, no security, no barriers

-It's easy to reach your target customers and create awareness fast, on Twitter

choice of social media depends on demographic of target audience. One cannot blindly choose any platform without analyzing requirements of campaign.

Choosing between each would be difficult as well as an easy task, as each caters to different segment of my social circle.

Facebook is personal to me, so if I were to say something to my close friends .. then Facebook it is.

Twitter is more of a follower segment, if I need to get some information/news across... then its gotta be twitter.

LinkedIn is my professional circle, so if I need to brand myself or network/market with my professional peers  .... Look no further than LinkedIn

But if it a video that I created it definitely goes to Youtube  .. and depending on the nature of the video, I just amplify it in my other networks. And that goes for my image/graphics in Pinterest

Facebbok. Firstly because of their1.2 bilion users and second because of their new "claim offer" feature if you're promoting a certain service from a Facebook page.
