Five key social media tips


Don’t stay on the same social media networks, as there are many new ones that could fit your needs better. — 123rf.com

Social media tips come and go, and while keeping a collection of all of them would serve you well, there are certain tips and tricks that we absolutely must remember. Here are some of my favourites.

Sharing quizzes and memes will give someone else access to your Facebook data: The next time you see a friend on Facebook sharing one of those quizzes or personality tests, note that there’s a website listed next to the headline. That’s the one associated with the content. While not always cause for alarm, some companies create these very shareable pieces of content with one simple goal in mind – to mine your data. These companies have also learned what’s shareable and create content they think you won’t be able to resist. My simple rule of thumb is – always Google the website listed before sharing, just in case.
