Sticking With Social Media……….

Whilst sat in our offices happily working away for our client’s: blogging, optimising, managing and strategically planning (gosh we do sound like master minds, which we are) we have put together a few short pointers, which we feel if you adhere to, will take you to the moon and back with your Social Media accounts.

Pinterest:

• Avoid human faces. Images without human faces get repinned 23 percent more often than images with faces.
• Look for red. Images that are predominantly red or orange see twice as many repins as other images.

Facebook:

• Be positive. Positivity is more appealing and inspiring for your fans, and it will encourage them to share your post.
• Provide a link. Drive fans to your website. After all, your Facebook page exists to support your business.

Google+:

• Tag people. When appropriate, tag brands and people in your posts to encourage them to comment or engage with you.
• Include large images. Don't settle for the tiny photo that automatically appears when you include a link in a post. Upload a larger one to grab people's attention.

Twitter:

•  Good Grammar: Don’t let the 140 character limit be an excuse to cut corners and look messy. Try fit in appropriate grammar and don’t abbreviate words where possible
• Encourage RT’s: To encourage Re Tweets, there is nothing wrong with asking your follows to do so. If asking for a RT then try to keep your tweet no more than 100 characters, this leaves room for quotes and comments.

Social Media is all about conversation and sharing. If you are finding that Social Media is taking up too much of your time then do consider a Social Media Agency. Agencies, like One Media Solutions, are here to help free up your time and run social media campaigns consistently on your behalf.
