While the big brands are ruling social media with huge budgets &amp; expert advice, it may seem like there isn\u2019t any more room.<\/p>\n<p>We assure you, there\u2019s always space for more. Before we&nbsp;get into more detail on how you can use social media, let&#8217;s tell you how you can strategise by learning&nbsp;how to use the different social platforms to target different sectors.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/wdd.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10887\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/wdd.png\" alt=\"wdd\" width=\"755\" height=\"511\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few ways you can optimize the social media channels available at your fingertips for your web design &amp; development service!<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Facebook \/ Twitter<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Facebook &amp; Twitter are great platforms to reach masses. You&#8217;ll find almost all types of audiences here hence we say it&#8217;s perfect for all types of sectors. Here&#8217;s how to get started on these platforms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Create&nbsp;a Facebook &amp; Twitter page \/ profile<\/li>\n<li>Start by uploading a cover picture &#8211; it is the first thing a page visitor will see &amp; you need to impress<\/li>\n<li>Engage your followers&nbsp;with&nbsp;updates on what you\u2019re currently working on, tips on how to design \/ develop, pictures of your work etc.<\/li>\n<li>Always respond within a timeframe of a few minutes to be perceived on social media as a brand who communicates with your audience<\/li>\n<li>Start Advertising with whatever little budget you can afford to allocate<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>YouTube<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While your web design is not like a culinary business where you can record recipes &amp; methods, you can certainly use YouTube in the following way:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To upload videos of development hacks,&nbsp;how-to videos tutorial videos etc.<\/li>\n<li>To establish yourself as an expert in the field<\/li>\n<li>Share these videos on your social media channels for maximum visibility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>LinkedIn:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>LinkedIn is fantastic for professionals. We suggest using this platform to target&nbsp;professionals such as doctors, lawyers, teachers, principals because LinkedIn&nbsp;is where you&#8217;re most likely to find this group. It&#8217;s easy to look for your audience based on their occupation.&nbsp;LinkedIn, unlike other social media channels is more focused on business than just chatter. You can use LinkedIn to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Set up a page to get found<\/li>\n<li>Put out updates about your latest work, company profile, openings<\/li>\n<li>Use the See Who\u2019s Viewed Your Profile feature to identify prospects<\/li>\n<li>Use LinkedIn\u2019s InMail feature to&nbsp;contact them for potential projects<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>Google+<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Get on Google+ &amp; post the same updates you post on your Facebook &amp; Twitter pages. The aim is to have an updated, active Google+ page. What&#8217;s the benefit of this platform for your business?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Google+ is a must if you want to have a strong SEO presence<\/li>\n<li>Hangouts, the video calling feature can be used to have trainings across various locations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Pinterest<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Pinterest is a fantastic tool to showcase your work. Think of it as an online portfolio. You can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Create different boards showcasing work from various projects<\/li>\n<li>Upload high definition images<\/li>\n<li>Follow other web designers<\/li>\n<li>Add keywords in description of your pins to be found in&nbsp;searches<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Whatsapp<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Whatsapp is on the go, it&#8217;s direct, it&#8217;s quick &amp; almost everyone is on it! You can get instant responses and queries. The one-on-one communication is great for sending across quotations, work samples &amp; more.&nbsp;Whatsapp can be a very strong marketing tool.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It&#8217;s direct communication with your target audience<\/li>\n<li>You can send files, pictures, videos of your products across the world<\/li>\n<li>Offer live\/ real time support<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Quora<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Quora is a platform for users to ask as well as answer questions. We say it&#8217;s a good platform to target techies since a lot of questions are tech-oriented.&nbsp;Quora, again is a great place for you as a brand to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Show your expertise<\/li>\n<li>Answer questions &amp; make your skills known<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While you don&#8217;t have to use all the platforms, you can pick the ones best suited to your business &amp; work with it. If you do have your presence on multiple platforms, you don&#8217;t have to stress about it. You can repost the same content across different platforms in the fashion that&#8217;s best suited for the platform. By that we mean, that you can share your content on Facebook as an image, as a more detailed paragraph on Quora or as a video on Facebook. This ensures that you&#8217;re leveraging&nbsp;the best feature of each platform to forward your content.<\/p>\n<p>There are more ways you can leverage social media for your business but we hope you use these to begin with.
