Do’s:

Content is king when it comes to social media. Make sure your posts are relevant and engaging.

Maintain and post on your social pages regularly. But don’t over post.

Be active on your pages and engage with your followers regularly by responding to questions, comments, liking, reposting or re-tweeting.

Link and share articles, sites, blog, videos from other relevant sites that your target network will find useful.

Be personal but not TOO personal. Not everyone in your network wants to see pictures of your cat. Or what you ate for breakfast.

Proof read all your posts. Checking for errors in your posts maintains a level of professionalism with your followers.

Remember your audience. Not everyone shares the same sense of humor or views on the world.

17

DO THIS!

Don’ts:

Don’t over post on your social media pages. Too much content will annoy your followers.

Don’t post irrelevant content, if your page represents your business then make sure all your content supports it.

There are a lot of angry people on the internet. If they don’t help you grow your brand, don’t follow or engage them.

Don’t ignore direct messages or comments from followers. Engaging with your target market will help grow your business.

Don’t post content that will alienate you from your followers. If you think it might upset people, it probably will.

Don’t steal other users posts or content. If you are sharing content created or posted by someone else make sure you share it properly.

DON’T DO THIS!

Follow: Users can follow a social media profile or page that they like. This will give them access to your content and allow them to see and share your posts.

Like: Used across most social media sites, the like is the easiest way for users to comment on the content they are seeing. If they enjoy a post they will like it.

Tweet: The term used to describe a post made on Twitter. It can be something original or something you have shared from someone else (Retweet)
