Social Media Blogging
Blogging content on your social media Ads has to be unique and different to get potential clients interested and help them make a choice between your business and someone else’s.

Social Media Advertising
Social media platforms generally started by connecting family and friends on a personal level but as social media has become more popular, it has now been seen as a sensible method of advertising businesses.
Facebook Ads, Instagram Ads, YouTube pay per view, Pinterest, Linkedin, and Twitter may have different audiences to target when starting an Ad campaign. Within the setup process, you can narrow down the type of people that will see your Ad from gender, age, location and even time of day your Ad will be shown. The content you add to your Ad is an important factor to show your expertise in such a small text box so you need something to grasp the attention of the user. You can manipulate the Ad so the user engages in a specific way by clicking through to your site, encouraging a sale, click to call you or direct them to a certain website page.
