As more and more people join Twitter, Facebook and other social networks, bloggers are increasingly trying to get their content shared and it in-front of more people. And why wouldn’t they? A post is perceived as higher quality when it’s coming from a friends than from anywhere else.
So how can you increase the social reach and shareability of your posts? Here are a few tips:
Create good content.
First and foremost it’s about good content. No one likes the same content they can find everywhere else, or content that is self-indulgent.
Create unique content that informs, educates and/or entertains. Be different, be you, be successful.
Add media.
Text is great, but pictures are what most people will notice first. Add compelling graphics and/or videos to compliment your content. Try to create, or find, media that will act as a magnet and pull people in.
