YouTube and Instagram are not the only social networks where it is important to be present. There are many others that excel at connecting people and getting them to interact. So here we take a look at the other social networks where you should have a presence.

 

Facebook, the must-have

 

Facebook currently has more than 2 billion active users spread across the globe. It is of course the most popular social network in the world. As an individual, you can post photos, videos and messages and share them with your friends. You can also keep up to date with the news of your friends and family. But Facebook is also very useful for businesses. It is a powerful channel for communicating with customers. There are countless companies that run targeted advertisements on it. Some even use Facebook as their customer service platform.

 

Twitter or microblogging at your fingertips

 

Twitter is a social network that has entered the field of sharing short messages of 280 characters at most. These so-called "tweets" can be accompanied by photos, videos, links or gifs. Currently, more than 300 million people use this microblogging platform every month.

Twitter users mainly use it to broadcast news and to keep up to date with developments on a given topic. Many users also use it to share short statuses with their community.

 

 

LinkedIn, the social network for professionals

 

LinkedIn is a social network with 546 million accounts entirely dedicated to professional relationships. It allows you to quickly build a CV online and connect with other professionals. LinkedIn is also known to make life easier for job seekers in their search. On this social network, professional news is shared. You can also find feedback and exchange with other subscribers on subjects related to your profession.

 

Pinterest for those looking for innovative ideas

 

Pinterest is another social network worth checking out. It specialises in sharing videos and photos on a thematic board. You can hang your favourite photos on the board that corresponds to a given theme such as cooking, home or fashion. There is a reason why more women than men use Pinterest. Nevertheless, the number of male users is increasing, as they are eager to find ideas and inspiration for decorating their homes, maintaining their gardens or perfecting their DIY skills.

Pinterest was founded in 2010 and now has over 250 million users. By joining this community, you can even sponsor pins and boost your website traffic through organic posts.
