Definition of Social Media?
Social media is today’s most transparent, engaging
and interactive form of public relations. It combines the
true grit of real time content with the beauty of authentic peer-to-peer
communication.
Social media is not about what each one of us does or says, but
about what we do and say together, worldwide, to communicate in all
directions at any time, by any possible (digital) means.
Social Media is a new marketing tool that allows you to get to
know your customers and prospects in ways that were previously not
possible. This information and knowledge must be paid for with output
of respect, trustworthiness, and honesty. Social Media is not a fad, but
it’s just the beginning of the marketing revolution – not the end.

Step 1 Understanding how social
media can work for your e-publication.
Thefirstplusthatsocialmediawillbringtoyourbusiness
and online publications is reach. The social media technology is ca-
pable of reaching for you a global audience. Your e-publications are
no longer faced with the issue of being limited to country borders
and physical distribution. Your articles, products and content will be
shared and reached globally.
The second advantage is accessibility. We all know that
social media tools (like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and much more)
are accessible to everyone with an internet connection. This means
that people, once they get in touch with your e-publication, content,
products will share them and spread the word – this at little or no cost
at all for you.

Usability is another strong point of the social media – you can
get your message across easily – as social media does not require
training, specialized skills – so this means that anyone will have
access to whatever you desire to promote.
Astrongpoint,thatismostspecificforsocialmediaonlyis
immediacy. If for your message in a printed magazine or catalog had to
wait days, even weeks to reach the desired target – social media
enables instantaneous responses.
This means that once you have released your e-publication your content
can get out there almost instantly.
A very important thing that social media can do for you and
your e-publication is the connection that it establishes between you
and your audience.
They will feel closer and more familiar towards your e-publications. In
other words – they will feel like they matter - and this matters!

Step 2 Optimize your e-publication
for social media.
In order to reach your target groups on Social Media platforms and
engage sharing your e-publication or contents of your e-publication,
you should consider following:
a) Articles/ products – the articles, products and promotions that
you have inside your e-publication should have social media
buttons – so that your message can be shared.
b) Links – You can insert links in your e-publications so that your
readers and customers will get easier to where you want them to go.
As example you can create a link to send them to a certain contest,
product, article and so on.
c) Videos – Videos are a great way to share any message – your
audience will be thrilled and they will share it further on if it is
something relevant to their interest. Making it relevant it`s your job.
d) Interactivity and games – bringing interactivity in your e-publication

Having something new and interactive is like a breath of fresh air,
both for readers and customers. This is also very likely to be shared
on social media – it can easily become “viral”.

“Google” says – 78% of customers prefer mobile optimized content.
Users leave when content isn`t digital friendly.

devices is important.
