Blogging Tip #2: Pick One Social Media

I know, you feel like you need to be on every social media. Everyone else is, right?

Wrong! Most people are not active on more than one social media. If they are, they are either not getting anything done or they have a team of people making that possible.

Multiple Accounts
Yes, it is okay to have an account on more than one social media. You never know when one is going to take off and you may want to switch. However, stick with one as your primary source of engagement.

Which?
Which one should you choose? Simple. Where is your audience? It doesn’t matter how cool Twitter is or how much you love G+. If your tribe is on Facebook, you need to be there too.

Expert
Choose one social media and become an expert on it, and it alone. Learn the ins and outs. Connect with people and build your online community.

Blogging Tip?
Social media is key to getting your message out there. Blogging and social media go hand in hand. You write the amazing post on your site, but it goes viral via social media.

Bottom line, you need to pick one social media and get to work.

    Insightful article. You are correct that one social media will usually be a persons’ most used. For me, I get more interactions with FaceBook. However, Twitter has its own peculiar benefits. I rarely use Instagram… it is just a picture “thing” to me. I find that Twitter is useful at times, but I do not get much interaction out of Twitter. FaceBook is my favorite; and much more user-friendly in my opinion.
