That right there really helped me out! And thank you so much for responding and being patient with me, it truly means a lot. Usually people just ignore me. <3 Oh and by sharing icons do you mean the facebook and the twitter icons at the bottom of the comment box?

I specialize in B2B wriitng – so I’m not sure I’m the best person to ask. Keep publishing and see how your audience responds. In the beginning, it’s less about making one post a traffic magnet and more about developing an audience one post at a time. Just keep blogging and promoting!

Also – use social media sharing icons rather than HTML links at the bottom of your post. The links you have there to Twitter, Instagram and YouTube aren’t live.

Courtney

I am very new to blogging and just promoting myself through social media in general, and wanted to know if you had time to please check out this blog post I did for Jennifer Lawrence. I feel that I did all of the points that you said, but I am still not attracting people. Can you please tell me what I am missing?
Thank you! Mina

You’re correct – hashtags are Twitter specific, although they can also be used on Google+. I wouldn’t recommend using them in your blog posts because it might confuse your readers.

Hashtags are a way to categorize information – so if you are doing a lot of posting around fiction writing, you’d want to find and use hashtags related to writers and buyers for your genre. The same goes for memoirs or humor. It’s a way to increase your reach and share your tweets with a specific audience.

I hope this helps!

Courtney

Thanks for the group links – and the Facebook Graph Search tip. I know there will be more ways to use that tool as the weeks go by.

Isn’t that just for Twitter? I’m not even clear on how Twitter hashtags work…eek!

For me, Facebook has been quite hard because most people, even marketers, see it as a place for personal interactions. Anyway, here are the groups where I found like-minded individuals and discussions:

Community Manager, Advocate and Evangelist: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3553055120/
#ToolsChat: https://www.facebook.com/groups/197056753708451/
Inbound Marketers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/60589985516/

If you already got the Graph Search functionality, you can always do a search on the Groups that influencers in your industry are part of. This is actually how I come across the 3 groups above. :)
