It's important to be aware of what you are sharing on social media. So before you post, here's a checklist to think through!
Whether you're posting from your personal account or from your church's account, it's always important to be aware of what you are sharing on social media.
So before you post, here's a checklist to think through:
Have you thought about your audience?
Always put yourself in the viewer’s perspective before you hit submit. Would this attract me? Who is my audience and would this post offer them any value?
To go along with these questions, here are three other things to consider:
Tone
Find your upbeat self and make sure it comes through in your post.
Length
Especially on Facebook, try to compose your posts so they fit in the mobile version of the site. Don’t write so long that you have to “click to continue reading.” Statistics show that fewer people will read your post if they see that task at the bottom.
Timing
When do you post and when do you typically get the most engagement? Looking at business hours, school hours, etc. is important depending on who you are trying to connect with.
