Social Media encourages engagement and helps build a strong relationship with your visitors so they feel like a part of your team. Being a part of something feels great, and it is also a fundamental characteristic of human behaviour.
By properly using a blog – or news article section – on your website that’s regularly updated with fresh content and then connecting this to your social media sites, important messages and interesting status updates can be shared effectively with one single click – thereby attracting maximum coverage across multiple platforms.
Linking your website to your social networking profile(s) provides your customers – and perhaps more importantly, your potential customers – with a consistent and fresh, steady stream of information and useful links that bring them back to your website. This could be anything from latest news, coming events, awards you’ve won, big clients you’ve landed, industry specific news, special offers and anything else that’s relevant.
By way of an example, this very article was written on the Purple Dog website and when we published it, it also appears on Twitter, Facebook and other platforms automatically!
