This is an excerpt from 5 Steps To Launch A Lasting, Effective, Social Media Marketing Campaign Around Your Blog

Social media changed the way we share information, interact, shop, and simply live. It is also the reason why social media marketing replaced traditional advertising. And since everyone`s on social media these days, there’s a huge competition in the social media marketing game. Businesses fight for higher ranking on web search and in social search, as well as for higher social traffic on their websites.

However, there isn’t any proven formula for getting ahead of your competitors. Success depends on how effective your social media marketing campaign is. But bear in mind that an effective campaign requires effort and time.

To help you rank higher in the social media marketing world, here are 5 steps to launch a long-lasting, effective social media marketing campaign around your blogs:

Step  #1: Define The Goals Of The Social Media Marketing Campaign To Launch

Before you launch a campaign, the first thing to do is to define your goals, or what’s the result you expect to see. Once you’ve made it clear, you need to think about how you’ll get there.

The result will depend on several factors:

• Social media networks. There are innumerable social media platforms out there. And, you can’t spend time and energy doing social media marketing campaigns on all of them. Choose the networks where you can reach your target audience.
• Posting Time. Posting time is as important as locating the target audience. You can’t post on every hour and every single day. Instead, find the desirable posting time which is specific for every social platform, so that your audience sees you, and is able to engage with your posts.
• Audience. Promoting your business on all the networks out there is a huge mistake, and it can be irritating. Not all the people are interested in what you sell or do. You need to go where your audience is. Find those users that may find you significant, and that are likely to buy from you. These are the people who will engage and bring social traffic and money.

When you defined your goals, you need to have an attractive content to offer.
