This blog post is an answer I gave on Quora to the question, What Unusual Social Media Accounts do Bloggers Use to Promote Their Blog? I decided to share it here because I believe it will give you new ideas for blog post promotion. There are many alternatives to the usual choices of Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and Pinterest. In my answer I listed some of them.
Unusual Social Media
Hello
Thanks for the question.
I have a few suggestions for you but I should start by stating that unusual social media is fairly subjective. My assumption is that your list of usual would include Twitter, FaceBook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Google + and Pinterest. With that clarification, here are my suggestions:
- Mix.com ( Think of Mix.com as StumbleUpon 2.0). If these words mean nothing to you this post will help, StumbleUpon is Dead.
- Flipboard: News for our time – Technically it’s an app and not a Social Media platform.
- Steemit – Steemit definitely is a social media platform and it is one that is powered by Blockchain technology. It is the largest of the social media platforms powered by Blockchain technology.
- If you would like more information on Blockchain technology or the 12 other social media platforms that use Blockchain technology you can read my post here, The New Wave: 13 Social Media Platforms Powered by Blockchain
You can use all the platforms above to promote your blog but your first step would be to identify whether your intended audience uses those platforms.
Good luck and best wishes!
Quora
Do you use Quora? It is the perfect platform for you to ask me a question; we could then start a conversation that could result in a meeting or phone call if you are overseas. I look forward to hearing from you on Quora.
