* Twitter * Instagram * Facebook * Snapchat * Youtube
Twitter;
Create an account advertising a brand/ have your own account to tell people about what you’re doing.
E.g. If you’re a singer you can tell your fans when your next album is out or where your performing your next concert etc.
There aren’t many videos on twitter, so it makes it slightly worse because the advertising etc isn’t as good as it could be/ isn’t as shared as much as it could be.
Instagram;
Create an account to show people pictures of the brand you’re advertising/ have your own account to show people what you’re doing.
E.g. if you’re a famous Olympian you can show people pictures or videos of your training or medals. Also someone could create a fan page to also show they’re progress etc.
Instagram has many videos which makes it better because it shows more advertising so brands etc are more well - known.
Facebook;
Facebook has many advertisements and pages you can look at, they have these to show people the products they’re selling – so they hopefully get more buyers. Also famous people may have facebook to tell people what they’re up to etc.
E.g. River Island might have a facebook page that people can like then they can see what new clothes are in River Island or what sales are on etc.
Facebook has a lot of videos which makes it a better network, because you see more of what is going on with your friends because of the videos they put on. You can also say funny vines etc which people share and you can also watch and enjoy, so it makes you want to go on facebook more.
Snapchat;
On snapchat you communicate with others by either sending a photo of you or video to have a chat with someone. You can also set a story of whatever you want so everyone can see it.
E.g. Sending a snapchat of where you are shows people what you’re up to.
Snapchat has photos as well as videos; videos make it better because you can see whats happening instead of just a photo, so you have better interaction with others, which is what snapchat is intended for.
YouTube;
This is for advertising, a company can create a video to show people what’s new etc. E.g. A company that has just created a new movie might create a movie trailer so people can watch it. The point in the movie trailer is to persuade people to come watch their movie.
Youtube is just videos. This makes the app better because it shows you things like movie trailers and music videos etc, this allows you to be more update with things, which makes the app not only better but more popular.
