Post campaigns is the easiest way to engage your followers on social media. All you need to do is talk about your brand on your social media pages by posting links, images, and status updates. A successful social media campaign will increase traffic on your website and will increase product awareness. Likes, retweets, views, and comments allow you to gauge subscriber engagement with your post campaigns.

Tips for your post campaign
- Your posts should be thought-provoking, insightful, and relevant.
- Ask open-ended questions.
- Never let a direct and meaningful response go unanswered. Have conversations with your followers.
- While posting a status, use hashtags to monitor activity on the topic.
- Avoid using shortened URL in Facebook posts. Full-length URLs have an engagement rate three times higher than shortened URLs.
- When tweeting, however, always use shortened URLs and let users know exactly where they are going when they click your link.
- According to a TrackMaven study, posts published after work hours and have shown a 11% increase in engagement, and posts on Sundays get 25% more.
