What you should be posting on social media

I recently saw a very interesting video on what to post on social media channels. I don’t use them very much myself, but I thought many of you would find this interesting.

Here are a few ideas you could post:

1. Share a good resource
2. Repost another person’s post (Make sure you read it first!)
3. Make an announcement
4. Reveal something personal
5. Ask a question
6. Provide a discount
7. Reply to a question
8. Report on what you’re doing now
9. Offer congratulations
10. Wish someone well

Here is the link to the video:
God Bless!

    To lighten up the mood, you can also post jokes/memes relevant to your business products/services. Diversity in your social media posts is necessary to keep your followers from being bored. Thanks for sharing!

    Nice sharing buddy. I think if we are going to share someone else post, we should rewrite it. What do you think about it?

      Thanks for the share, Elmo. This video is definitely helpful. Just like you, I also agree with Rafael in adding more lighthearted posts that are relevant to your business niche for the purpose of diversion.

      I might also add that it is important to be cautious on what we post on social media. Let me share an article that I really find such a good read when it comes to how we should treat social media.

      Stop Doing That! This is How You Do Social Media.

    In addition, you can also post variety of industry news, recipes, fashion & DIY, quizzes, heartwarming stories, entertainment news, business & breaking news, deal, coupons, celebrity gossips, and articles about sports.

    These are all really great ideas!
    I would also suggest posting at the right TIMES as well!
    Typically early morning (5:30-7a), Lunchtime (11-1p), and late evening (9-11p)!
    I find when I post during these times I get the most interaction and responses.
    Specifically during morning and evening!

    There are 2 components to Posting on social networks.

    1. What to Post
    2. When to Post.

    Regarding the latter, I came across this very useful article recently, Hope it proves useful to you too.

    I think that it is always better to use images in social media. Images have much reach than any other type of contents. By the way, your suggestions are also helpful.

    Some great tips here, Thanks! We should keep posting some good relevant images too. Perhaps have the question written on the image, or a humorous meme or something like that
