Friday Facts - Part 2: The 3 Types of Social Networks and What to Post on Them

Once again, Klout has put out a blog post which is very useful to my readers (and even those who are not my readers) regarding the types of social networks and what to post on them.  This one was such a timely post, it couldn't wait to the next free Friday for posts.

You may be asking "What do they mean by types of social networks."  They break down social networks into three platforms: Personal, Content Sharing, and Shared Interest Networks.  Some social media outlets are under more than one of those networks.

Their explanation of social networks, what to post and tips for each network is quite interesting and valuable.

Have a good Friday!

Sharing a Klout Blog Post: New Research: Topics That Get A Reaction

While I try to reserve posts that take you to other sites to be posted on Fridays and Saturdays, this article was just too good to wait till next Friday to post.

In the recent blog post made on Klout, they disclose statistics as to what topics get the most, and least, interaction via Facebook and Twitter.

The article contains several useful infographics as well as analytics and explanations as to some surprising outcomes from the research as well.

Depending on your brand/direction, this may or may not help you incorporate topics that generate interaction with your followers - but it's definitely something to consider.
