You can say the language of social media is changing with the passage of time. These resources have proved already that they have much more ability to engage more and more visitors or viewers. Pinterest is the best example; it has generated excellent engagement of visitors by using these three resources only.
- Gain more followers: Reach out the audience by making friends, gaining more followers and subscribers is the result of your social media engagement and also how you present your business online. If your followers are not growing after your marketing efforts you should re-consider your strategy and change it if required. Try to implement something new that can engage more people.
- Embrace the change: Whenever the social media guidelines change you have to either adapt those changes or give up. In my opinion, it is better to adapt the changes so that you can give yourself an opportunity to fill the space left by those who opt to give up. For example: LinkedIn adds a feature to “block or report the profiles”.
There are many more tricks that can build more followers, subscribers and finally increase traffic of your website. You just need to re-evaluate your strategies on regular basis and try to explore new ways to extract better results from your social media marketing.
