20 Social Media Content Topics You Should Feature
A boring Facebook fan page or Twitter account will do your company little good. Interesting, exciting, valuable content is what gets your readers to keep coming back, commenting, liking, and maybe even sharing your pages with their friends. When you think about social media and the topics you’d like to cover for your fans, think way beyond what you’d like to sell to them. Social media is about building and maintaining relationships as much as it’s about promoting your company and its offerings.
Still, it helps to come up with a list of social media content topics that you would like to share with your followers. Your list should include both marketing topics and fun, helpful, everyday topics. I’m going to share a list of topics for you to consider in planning your own social media content strategy.
