Twitter or Facebook?
Should you use Twitter or Facebook, or both social media accounts? Here are some facts to help you decide:
- A recent study has discovered that links that are included in Twitter Tweets get clicks more often than links in a Facebook post.
- Twitter has about 321 million registered users, and Facebook has about 2.38 billion users.
- You can post images and video on Twitter.
- Facebook has fewer outages than Twitter.
- Facebook appeals to a larger age range of people.
- Twitter is used more by businesses because it is quick and offers more return for your investment.
- More people use Twitter on their mobile devices than Facebook.
- You can do more with Facebook, like playing games, etc.
- Both Facebook and Twitter can be integrated so Tweets can be posted to Facebook.
- You can buy ads on Facebook for even more exposure.
Facebook and Twitter are the top two social media networks. If possible, you should use both to promote your website and reach a larger audience. However, it is important to keep them updated and to post to them often. If someone visits your Twitter account or your Facebook Page and nothing has been posted recently, it does more harm than good because your account or page does not look active.
You should monitor your accounts and respond to any messages promptly. Set yourself up as the expert who people go to when they need information in your field of expertise.
