How to Get Perfect Social Posts Every Time

Ever wonder what makes some posts go viral while others go completely unnoticed? Thanks to the magic of big data we have a small glimpse into the world of viral social media posts. Here are some take aways:

Facebook: Keep it positive, include an image, link back to your website, and make sure to keep your messaging short suggestive - send them to your site for more!

Twitter: Use bit.ly to increase shares, also keep abbreviations and crazy capitalization to a minimum. And don’t forget to ask for retweets! Read more on this here.

Pinterest: Can you believe that images with red/orange in them get shared more than others? How about the fact that images without heads get shared 25% more than images with heads. Weird, but true.

Google+: I have a Google+ page and do not use it. Do you use yours? How has it helped your business? The tips above are similar with the tips I tell my clients - tag others, use good images, and use hashtags.

And of course don’t forget to post during the times when most people are on that platform. ICYMI: Read that article here. Happy marketing!
