The internet meme is the classic characteristic example.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Others spread like crazy thanks to social influencers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Host a Social Media Giveaway or Contest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Giveaways and contests are considered as viral content on social media. Most people, in general, are always ready to win something for free. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So when someone sees a giveaway or contest on a platform like Facebook or Instagram, the least they would do is &#8216;check out the post.&#8217; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A tiny action like this will increase engagement on the post, making it more viral on the platform. The more viral your giveaway post gets, the more discoverable it will become, leading to more social traffic around your post. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vyper.io\/c\/16002yupzn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.vyper.io\/a77a9044-b021-48bf-9f4d-c8c16bcb77ba\/-\/stretch\/off\/-\/preview\/1024x1024\/\" alt=\"VYPER Music Contest Demo\" class=\"wp-image-7170\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So how do you move this traffic to your website? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can <a href=\"https:\/\/vyper.io\/blog\/blog-giveaways\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">embed the giveaway entry form into your website<\/a>. Then, request users to visit your website to enter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Social media users that discover your giveaway post can simply visit your website to enter and stand a chance to win big!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also allow users to submit multiple entries by completing <a href=\"https:\/\/vyper.io\/blog\/use-cases\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">bonus actions<\/a>. These bonus actions can be crucial tasks such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Follow us on social media<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Submit your email address to enter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Visit our website \/ read this blog post<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Download our app<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>By using bonus actions, you will be able to achieve multiple goals (boosting followers and email lists) from a single campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Integrate Social Media Share Button<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine after reading a piece of interesting content, you want to share it with your Facebook or Twitter friends but can\u2019t find any social sharing buttons. It\u2019s a terrible experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With social media buttons on your blog, your blog readers can share your content with their audience easily instead of copying the blog post\u2019s URL and paste it on their social media posts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the readers click on the social sharing buttons, the web page link and the blog post title will be automatically fetched and published quickly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can add multiple social sharing buttons within your blog by using <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/avada.io\/shopify\/social-share\/\" target=\"_blank\">supportive social share apps<\/a> that provide various eye-catching and customizable social share icons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>You can scroll to the bottom of this post to view our blog&#8217;s social media share buttons.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Optimize Your Post for Each Social Media Platform<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can drive website traffic through any kind of social media platform, but they have different rules and operational principles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, it\u2019s essential to <a href=\"https:\/\/attrock.com\/blog\/how-to-write-content-for-websites\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">create and optimize your content<\/a> for each social media site.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some unique practices of the most popular social media sites that you can follow:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Facebook:<\/strong> Facebook doesn\u2019t limit the length of your text posts. Videos and photos perform best with a relatively short copy used as a clear and strong call-to-action (CTA).&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Twitter:<\/strong> You can only publish posts with the limit of 140 characters, excluding photos and links. Therefore, remember to write a concise and clear copy. It\u2019s better to use URL-shortener like bit.ly to shorten your links.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Instagram:<\/strong> Instagram has a 140-character limit for your profile introduction. To optimize this short line of introduction that attract people when they first visit your account, you need to understand your purpose on the platform. Keep it short and wisely tell about your account.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>LinkedIn:<\/strong> According to <a href=\"https:\/\/buffer.com\/library\/optimal-length-social-media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Buffer<\/a>, the optimal length for a LinkedIn post is around&nbsp; 25 words. It\u2019s the platform for business networking with many professionals; your copy should be clear, relevant, and useful.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Youtube:<\/strong> In your video description and title, identify 1 &#8211; 2 main words that describe your video. Avoid inappropriate words in your video description. It violates Youtube\u2019s policies. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Schedule Post Publish Time to Your Audience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s crucial to publish your content at the right time when your target audience is most active.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you search the best times to share on social media, they can vary from this group of audience to the others. Millennials will be online at a different time with Gen X professionals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, the times to attract these two groups of audiences will be much different.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it can be different in each type of business. Thus, to make sure you can attract your audiences when they\u2019re online, use the analytics of your Business pages. Most social media platforms allow you to create Business pages from which you can track your online performance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The analytics will show which time your target audience is interacting with your posts. You will see a consistent time of a day or day of the week when your posts gain the most engagement. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/avada.io\/shopify\/docs\/how-set-specific-publish-date-blog-post.html\" target=\"_blank\">Schedule your posts at the right times<\/a> so that you can save time on publishing and reach more target audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Include Rich Media to Your Social Post<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s proved that social media posts with visual elements will attract viewers much better. For example, Facebook posts with photos gain 39% more engagement. If you\u2019re promoting on Facebook, it\u2019s essential to <a href=\"https:\/\/avada.io\/shopify\/docs\/how-set-social-sharing-image-shopify.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">share your content with images<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure the media that you add to your posts are relevant and high-quality. In case you can\u2019t create images yourself, there are many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.freepik.com\/popular-photos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">royalty-free stock photos<\/a> for your convenience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.vyper.io\/48b26d74-83ab-4cfc-b870-c7f532059199\/-\/stretch\/off\/-\/preview\/1024x1024\/\" alt=\"Hot Since 82 Tiger King\" class=\"wp-image-7180\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: <strong><em>HotSince82 Instagram<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Popular UK DJ, Hotsince82, photoshopped his face onto one of the most Meme-able images of 2020 (Joe Exotic, AKA The Tiger King).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many popular figures and influencers take a similar approach to creating rich media for their social media accounts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use Hashtags<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hashtags are especially effective on Instagram and Twitter. Using useful, relevant, and active hashtags in your post can make it reach more audiences as they\u2019re usually searching for things on social via hashtags.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t flood your posts with irrelevant hashtags even if they\u2019re trending.
