How facebook changed the game for many

How Frequent Are Your Facebook Posts?

For any type of enterprise, it is common knowledge that the spending allowance, as well as the time being allocated on a daily basis, is unfortunately very much limited. The importance of maximizing the return for the work and efforts being put into any campaign cannot be overemphasized. “Time is money” is a very common saying for the business world, therefore, you do not want to waste both resources in a very limited world. That being said; how do you know how whether your facebook posts are simply not enough? Could it also be that the posts are way too much and are becoming obnoxiously overbearing for others? You want to ensure at all times that you are hitting just the right numbers needed to gain your client interest and to keep them interested at all times. At times, though the quantity that you post is just right, the content may be so irrelevant and – simply put, boring that you lose your client’s interest. It is important to get just the right amount and the right type of content for your client base. Though minimalistic, Facebook posting is a great source of internet reputation management as it has the power to improve the opinion that a client or potential client may have about a company or an individual. The power of Facebook cannot be overemphasized and with great strategy can be used to change great things in our day to day lives.

Posting On Facebook This Year

During the beginning phase of last year, Facebook made a very interest and prominent announcement regarding the changes that they were planning on implementing to their algorithm which inevitably obstructed some of the strategies for social media that almost all business had put into place. What this great social media enterprise decided to do was to shift the focus from brands and other media to instead promoting basic conversations between family and friend groups in order to decrease the impact that these brands were having on the company.

Though the outreach of some of the company pages has dropped some number during the past year there is actually still home as changes can still be made.  Instead of sending information into the airwaves and hoping that it will actually reach something or someone, Facebook now wants the information to be targetted to a specific business or individual which will then general engagement and followers.

 

How Often Should An Individual Or Business Post On Facebook?

Now is the question that so many usually want to know when they set a Facebook page for online management or to increase interactivity. What you must first ask yourself as an individual or as a company is how feasible would join certain conversations online be? An example to that is when you post a link, image or even a video that immediately triggers conversations online. How quickly could you respond to the post and provide further feedback or engage in conversations with online users? It would receive a greater noticeability if you were able to engage and respond promptly to the post. The same goes for certain online reviews and feedback that are made about your company and the reputation of your company. You will get greater visibility when you are able to respond right away to a comment that is made by an individual or company. On average the SME report states that brands usually post between 6 to 8 times every day on Facebook. This is also very relative to the actual size of the company as well as the demographics in question. In the event that the company is smaller in scale, you would not have the manpower to be able to handle the daily workload as well as post 8 times every day. Though there are certain software out there that can be used to schedule postings online it is important to have available staff to constantly keep an eye on the postings in order to ensure that they meet the company standards. What is most important is to keep an eye on the way the postings are being made in order to ensure that they are not damaging your brand but instead are creating traffic to your actual company database.

When Would Be The Best Time To Post On Facebook?

You now have somewhat of an idea as to how frequent your Facebook postings should be, but now it is also important to know when the postings should actually be made. Again, this is completely dependent on the staff availabilities as well as the feasibility. Comscore states that an average Facebook user will typically connect to Facebook about eight times in one day. The specific time that the clients are logging in on Facebook will depend on the timezone, the demographics, the physiography of the clients. In the event that they are students; they may be very occupied with their school workload and may not have time to log online. If they are graduates and are working full time and travel extensively, there is a good chance that they will be login in very frequently as they will be sharing all of their different experiences online. The time that the content is posted will also go hand in hand with the type of content that is being posted. The type of content that you post early in the morning, maybe around 8 am cannot be the same type of content that you post in the afternoon as the energy and interest level of a Facebook user would be completely different, one from another. Your postings online must be relevant to your clients.

Besides all of the changes that have been made in the year 2018, this powerful Facebook tool that users cannot seem to get enough of still remains extremely practical and advantageous for businesses and individuals to promote their branding and to create a platform where clients and potential clients are free to express themselves. When used strategically and with great care, Facebook has the power to increase your client database and visibility tremendously.
