Now, everyone is aware of social media. However, how can businesses make use of social media? What is the definition of social media marketing? Social media marketing is a marketing strategy that focuses primarily on connecting with the target audience via social media platforms/channels such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, and others to increase brand awareness, improve sales, drive web traffic, and so on.

Designing interesting content, listening to what people are saying on social media platforms, monitoring and interpreting analytics reports, and implementing social media campaigns are just a few examples of social media marketing methods.

Today's social media is largely word-of-mouth advertising. Getting people to engage with you on social media helps to spread the word about your company and the products and services you offer.

• SEO strategists must also be able to collaborate with social media marketers to receive the social signals required to ensure their company's top search rankings.

For business, social media serves two purposes:

• Are you taking part in the discussion and sharing?
• Are you paying attention to what's being said about you?
