Although social media is among the cheapest forms of marketing and advertising it can be demanding. Doing your due diligence on how to get the right social media platform to work for your business will save you a lot of time and resources. It is hard if you don’t know how to stay updated on the latest best practices, news, and trends that come with any social media network. Finding the right social media platform to invest in that will provide you with direct ROI and at a low cost can be tricky.

Before you choose the platform best for your business you need to know who your target audience is, your ultimate goal, and the type of business you have if it’s a B2B or B2C. People are using social media for fun and also to shop so any social media site you invest in you will most likely get new customers. These are some of the best social media networks for your business.

Instagram has over 1 billion active users and it’s owned by Facebook so it has most of the same features that will help you in brand awareness and consumer engagement. Instagram is a great social media site if you have a visual product to present your target audience. Instagram has the same advertising platforms like Facebook but, it also has its own organic benefits. Which means that you don’t have to directly pay for some of the results you achieve. Whereas you pay for advertising on Facebook to reach more followers and increase popularity for your posts and page, on Instagram you can gain more followers and likes organically.

You can use high-quality auto likes for Instagram to gain thousands of likes and followers for your profile every time you post your photos or videos. Instagram is a great option for your business since you don’t need an advertising budget and because it’s a visual platform. It’s said that 80% of the people will remember what they’ve seen and not read.
