15 Types of Content for Social Media

Share with those you care

Here are 15 tried and true types of content that will keep your posts fresh and diversified.

We have all seen it before… A social media account that posts the same things over and over.

It’s either variety that keeps people engaged or “killer” articles. Unfortunately most of us do not have time to write “killer” articles on a daily basis. 

Alternatively, if you don’t have the time, or would prefer someone with more experience, you could opt for a content development company such as Globex Social Media Writing Services.

 

The list below could be used for almost any business:

  1. Customer highlights – Feature your customer and give them some free publicity 😉
  2. Holiday related storyChristmas is here and how could that relate to your customers or potential customers?
  3. Case studies – show how you solved your customer’s problem because someone else could relate
  4. Ask a Question relevant to your industry or products
  5. Humorous OR cute images as they relate to your industry or customers
