Even after spending a considerable amount of time on social media, online marketers still fail to make an impression with their pages visually. Most of the time it is because they do not give importance to the images or banner photos which can otherwise prove to be beneficial to a page.

Various studies show that people respond more to better visuals than just plain text. So, try to use images and cover photos with high resolution and clarity for your pages. On the creative side, you can add some cool effects and formats to the images to make them more appealing.

Don’t annoy your customers by posting frequently on your pages. Think about your audience and the time they spend because each social media channel has a different audience.

For Facebook, posting once a day is enough while for Twitter posting 5 times a day would be optimum. The posts should contain no more than 100 characters and should include striking images that will engage more people.

Engaging with your audience is the best practice to get noticed. If possible, be prompt in your replies. Recent studies show that the shelf life of a tweet is just 18 minutes.
This is more for a Facebook or a Pinterest comment. So make it more like a normal conversation with people. This may help you to be more popular online.
