Best Practices For Creating And Sharing Content

Having a well-executed social media strategy can go a long way in increasing awareness around your blog, helping you grow a larger audience, and connecting with your followers better. 

Here are our best practices for creating and sharing content: 

1. Take Advantage Of Your Existing Social Media Content

If you've already created and shared good posts in the past, they can now be repurposed as Evergreen content and be easily integrated into your Queue! 

All you would need to do is re-share content from your connected social media profiles. With your audience growing, content that served you well in the past can be put in front of your newer followers and bring additional engagement and traffic to your blog. 

2. Use Your Existing External Resources

Start bringing in your blog posts and sharing them with your audience. Set up RSS auto-importers to check your blog and automatically publish every new entry as it comes up. 

In fact, import your existing blog posts too, either one by one or in bulk, to make sure that newer followers get a chance to check out past blog entries they might not know of. 

3. Start Working On New Posts

New content is hard to figure out. That's why we wanted to help get you started with some quick, ready-to-go posts that match the Categories we've recommended. 

Once you've got SmarterQueue publishing and have more time to focus, start working on your next batch of posts: 

• Cross-posting is very important. Use all the major Social Platforms and get followers from each to follow on the others too by being social.
• Use media, as visuals are very important in getting engagement. Try to use video content for Facebook, great original images for Pinterest,  while both would work for Instagram. 
• Try to use images that are tailored around the preferred dimensions for each platform. 
• Recycle your content, especially if it’s good content. The same piece of content can easily go out around 6 times a year for good results.

4. Get To Know Your Audience Better

Try to figure out what content works with your audience by using Variations. This will allow you to A/B test multiple media and captions to see what your audience responds to. 

You can always look at what your audience is doing by Analyzing a Social Profile. You will be able to see what types of posts are getting attention, what content works better, which of your hashtags are generating more engagement, as well as what are the best times to post. 

5. Look At Other Successful Blogs

A few of the posts require you to add relevant links or images, such as posts in which you would be promoting a blog entry. Remember, posts with media always get more engagement as compared to plain text, so make good use of the images.

Some of them would require that you enter your Blog/Product name in the space allotted as shown below:

The template is ready to import based on the recommended Categories for the posts, however, you would have to select the dates and times for when everything should be published. 

You could also simply add these posts to your Queue, but not before making minor edits to give a more personalized touch. 

💡 When editing, you might see special characters shown in the text component of the post. Depending on the software you use when opening the CSV, any emojis in the posts might be displayed as special characters. When importing in SmarterQueue the emojis will be displayed instead.
