Social Media Advertising

In today’s digital world, social media advertising is non negotiable. Its importance cannot be downplayed and, as such, to be at the top of your game social media advertising must be mastered.

Let’s be honest: it’s harder than ever to get your content noticed online. Social media advertising is a prime way to start making progress in this area. Consequences of missing out on social media marketing can be dire, and can seriously effect whether a brand, site, company or individual succeeds or fails within the marketplace. You’ve heard it said before – if you’re not on the internet, you don’t exist. This very mentality can and should be applied to brand strategy when setting up and preparing to execute any kind of campaign. Put simply, social media advertising is a must.

Social media advertising, sometimes called social media targeting, is a campaign put in place to target certain demographics on social media platforms. The campaign consists of advertisements, and in order to effectively carry out these campaigns, social networks can tap into user information to actually amplify advertisements that are proving relevant to their users. The outcome is spectacular; when an advertisement is playing into a specific target market and demographic on a social platform, that social advertisement skyrockets, benefitting both advertiser and social network.

The benefits of advertising on social media speak for themselves:

Content marketing on social networks is one of the best strategies for its ability to yield backlinks and SEO traction
Influencer marketing can provide fast results due to the hype surrounding the influencer promoting your brand, product, or company. Note, though, that this strategy is most effective on a per post basis

What are the top social networks for Ecommerce advertising?

Facebook Advertising Strategy: Facebook is probably the most important platform for social ads. This social network implicitly understands how to build audiences, target users, retarget groups depending on feedback information, and measure success for each advertiser. Facebook ads must be budgeted so as to create a strategic process for your campaign. Another significant feature on Facebook is the Carousel ads. Carousel ads are popular and desirable because they expose users to more content and visuals than your regular old advertisement. Finally, Carousel ads lower your CPC.
Instagram Advertising Strategy: Instagram is probably the second most popular platform, since it’s so visual and aesthetically pleasing. Facebook Ad Manager is used by Instagram which makes it a good second step in your process once you’ve set up your Facebook adverts.

These videos can be displayed as regular posts, but the most popular method is by employing Instagram Stories. One Instagram Story on the right page, with the right links and redirection, can change your game.
Twitter Advertising Strategy: Twitter is still a happening place! Massive success can be found on this platform. However, simply investing money on a campaign isn’t enough to give your brand the push it needs to really succeed on Twitter.
