I'm not super-clever or anything, but I use it to get the word out about things I love (posts, giveaways, publisher news, etc). My FB feed is pretty much the same as your Twitter feed, though---nothing but automated posts. I think you just have to decide what you want to do and then go for it. And not worry about it too much. :-)<br /><br />Nicole @ <a href="http://feedyourfictionaddiction.com" rel="nofollow">Feed Your Fiction Addiction</a>Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addictionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637114079800138680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2719681682618841725.post-31979218207296432212017-03-22T07:56:11.021+01:002017-03-22T07:56:11.021+01:00I have a FB page for the blog and a Twitter accoun...I have a FB page for the blog and a Twitter account, both of which I use to share my posts. I do have an Instagram account, but I never use it. I've never gotten the hang of it, especially since it seems like something I can only do from my phone not from the computer. Even though I share on FB and Twitter, I don't know if it does any good. I don't get much traffic or interaction from either source.Jen @ bthreviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05033876906709771911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2719681682618841725.post-66693797222882275572017-03-21T05:01:26.815+01:002017-03-21T05:01:26.815+01:00I'm actually kind of terrible with social medi...I'm actually kind of terrible with social media too! I just can't keep track of stuff on Twitter. Currently my blog doesn't have a Facebook and I'm not sure if it's worth the time it effort for me right now. I'm slightly more active on Instagram but sometimes I just don't feel like I'm dedicated enough to social media to make it a big thing. /sigh. That being said I'm going to try to be more active on the blog! <br />Great discussion, Cynthia!<br /><br />Ps.

But I also HATE Facebook. Hate hate hate. So I stick to Twitter. I DO have a FB page for my blog, but I really just schedule things to post there and don't go on it unless someone comments and I get notified. Have I mentioned that I hate FB? Also, I kind of hate Instagram. Well, it's complicated. I like it in THEORY. I love pretty book pictures. BUt it is soooo time consuming! So why bother? I never get a lot of likes anyway, it seems whether I post a crappy picture or a decent one, it gets the same people's views, so who even cares at this point? I am never going to be some kind of social media personality, because I don't have the time, or frankly, the confidence. So... I am just kind of resolving myself to do what I can, when I can. And I say you should just do whatever works best for yoU!

So, we talk about books, or movies, or characters. I use it mostly for sharing some thoughts or discoveries. It could be YouTube channels or videos that I found. Or, recommending some blogs. Stuff like that. I have a Facebook page for the blog, but only family and some friends follow me on there. So, it has not been about creating more of traffic flow to my blog. <br />Dinasoaurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18303683677407160128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2719681682618841725.post-28414094043006660912017-03-16T17:00:52.353+01:002017-03-16T17:00:52.353+01:00I hear you!

My twitter presence is minimal (mostly re-tweeting political commentary these days), I don't have a blog FB page, and while I agree that IG has pretty pictures, it doesn't seem very productive to me. I can only think of one blog whose FB page I follow, and it's not a book blog. If my blog were my business, I'd approach it differently, but I don't feel a need to try to drum up traffic.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06296827820807569574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2719681682618841725.post-1114292026690624932017-03-16T12:37:57.135+01:002017-03-16T12:37:57.135+01:00I suck at Twitter.

I have a FB page but not much interaction. I think it is a way that some people just follow my blog - more like people who actually know me. Definitely due IG with your travel pics - I would love to see them!!Grace @ RebelMommyBookBloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10129217535499024513noreply@blogger.com
