What does social media incorporate?

Social media is a broad term as it covers a large range of internet tools and platforms. It can be hard to get to grips with what each platform offers, so we’ve provided a short summary of the key platforms your business should be familiar with:
Facebook – Facebook pages allow you to share posts, articles, images and videos with your followers, providing an easy way to get a conversation going with customers, improve loyalty, ask for feedback and build up a community.
Twitter – Twitter allows you to post 40 characters in a single tweet, and can be used to announce new products, share news in your industry or offer discounts.
LinkedIn – This is a social business network. Developing a strong reputation by joining LinkedIn groups aligned with your industry and answering questions in forums will be beneficial to your business.
Google Plus – This is a social network which can be categorised as a hybrid between Facebook and Twitter.
Pinterest – A digital bulletin board which is a highly visual way for people to share interesting online content.
