Cheat-Sheet for Creating the Best Social Media Campaigns EVER!

Most of the time you have to read articles from many sources to find the best advice about different social media platforms. But this infographic has fantastic tips about all the social networks you need to know!

Here are some takeaways I found most interesting:

LinkedIn

People actually post there?

Kidding, of course! LinkedIn can be a useful site, it's just not very social -- and I didn't know LinkedIn has insights!

Blog Posts

The layout recommendations are spot-on.

But I disagree that blogs should be 500-800 words. More than 1,000 words usually works best for SEO.

YouTube

Add a URL to every description -- even before the text.
