10 Types of Content That Adds Versatility To Your Social Media

Within social media marketing, posting quality content is an essential priority in any smart business’ strategy. No matter the platform or business, sharing content is how your business actually engages potential consumers, giving them the opportunity to interact and take interest in your business. Content is what draws attention to your business, peaks curiosity, and drives traffic that will actually convert into recurring sales. 

As social media is becoming one of the biggest outlets of success in digital marketing, content is also simultaneously becoming the core center of the strategy. As businesses begin to focus on posting quality content according to their specific target audience, results such as increased engagement, loyalty, and reciprocity will come in building these relationships on social media with followers. 

But with social media gaining traction for businesses for their engagement, the pool of brands actively posting on these platforms has also exponentially increased, making it even more difficult to be discoverable to your target audience versus potential competitors. 

So, as a business, what can you implement into your digital strategy that will not only boost the quality of your content, but also make you stand out to consumers?  

The answer is posting creative and different ways to present content. Through various modes of content, you have the opportunity on social media to build your brand’s presence and voice, while still grabbing your consumer’s attention in a unique way. 

Here Are 10 Different Types Of Content That Your Business Needs To Create and Utilize On Social Media:  

1. User Generated Content

User-generated content is a simple yet successful type of content that can diversify what you post on social media. This content is something that is created by someone else, like your consumers for example, then you repost it and give credit to the original creator. UCG is a great way to build loyal relationships with your followers, and demonstrate that your business cares about them. Furthermore, this content can be very quick and easy, because all your business has to do is find and post it. While still keeping your posts new and different, it can also show your support and voice on social media as a business. On the Social Rotation platform, user-generated content can be effortlessly uploaded just by utilizing a URL link, which then creates a ready-to-go post for your social media. 

2. Quotes

Quotes are great to add into your social media because they are inspirational and motivational to your followers, across all types of businesses. Quotes can be posted just as the text itself, or could also be paired with visuals related to the meaning or your brand’s identity. Similar to UCG, quotes are another great method to both diversify your business’ content while also establishing your brand’s authority and social media identity. Within Social Rotation, there are two motivational quote packs with countless done-for-you posts. Or, you also have the option to create, customize, and upload your own quotes through Canva on the Social Rotation platform.

3. Podcasts

As you may already know, podcasts have gained a lot of popularity and momentum over the past few years. Although many businesses do not have podcasts themselves, it can give your brand a lot of exposure to your target audience in places other competitors may be missing. Podcasts can also be used as a type of social media content through RSS feeds, which converts it into content that can be posted onto your feed. After the podcast is live, all your business has to do is paste the URL link into Social Rotation, and the RSS feed will do the rest.
