This will allow you to have better control over your social media campaign which is essential to digital marketing.

3. Social Media Platforms
The importance of social media for any company, brand or business is critical to having a successful marketing plan. When we first start our platforms the first three sites we need to sign up first for our Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. Twitter is one of those social platforms you just can’t stay off of and with over 300 million active users, you will find a sizeable part of your target market on Twitter! It also helps amplify your voice on the Internet and helps market your business or product. Facebook is a tool that you should never overlook. With over a billion users worldwide that your business can target, Facebook can be a great way to reach them. If you are looking to promote anything from a blog post to a product Facebook is the place you can utilize different marketing strategies such as Facebook pages and targeted marketing tools that Facebook provides. Instagram allows us to post content such as videos and pictures to use a marketing tool.

4. Followerwonk
Followerwonk was created to help you improve our social media strategy, such as by digging into your Twitter analytics data. The three main things Followerwonk does it:
• Find – use the tool to search Twitter bios and compare accounts.
• Analyze – breakdown your follower list by bio, location, who they follow and many other criteria.
• Optimize – match your strategy to follower gains and losses, to understand what type of content performs best.
This is a great tool to use for building your brand on Twitter the only downside is that you cannot utilize its tools for other social media platforms.

5. Canva
We all know the better a site, blog post or social media post looks increases the engagement and click rate. But if we’re not a pro at photoshop or graphic design it can be quite difficult so that’s where Canva comes in handy. This app allows you to quickly and easily make incredible graphics that can used for social media content or a blog post.
