You know you need to be on social media. YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. Some of the most popular sites out there on the web. Even Snapchat, even though Instagram is crushing it, it’s still doing really well. They have over a hundred million active users daily. But as a beginner, all of this is overwhelming and complicated. So how do you start? Hey, everyone, I’m Neil Patel, and today I’m gonna share with you how to get started with social media as a beginner.
0:30 How to Start Social Media Marketing Tip #1
The first thing you need to do is pick the right social network. Yes, there’s a lot of them. Whether it’s Facebook, whether it’s LinkedIn, whether it’s Twitter, it’s up to you on which network you want to be on. You could be on all of them but if you’re in all of them you’re not gonna spend enough time to make these profiles amazing.

But now that you have a right one, the second thing you need to do is start creating content. Yes, you’re like hey I have no friends, I have no following. It doesn’t matter no one’s gonna follow if you don’t have any content. So start creating content. That starts off with completing your profile.

Now that you’re creating content, the next thing you need to do is build a connection. And you need to build a connection with people, it’s a social network. Just because you’re on a computer doesn’t mean you’re not connecting with humans. So make sure you’re friending all the people that you know, following them. You’re engaging, right you’re building connections.

And the last tip is don’t go for follower count. It’s all about having valuable connections, personal ones. Because if your first 100 fans or followers aren’t that engaged with you, all these social networks have it in their algorithms where they’re looking at a percentage.

What about dropship website which social media is best for marketing and how can i get traffic from other source
Hi Neil,
We handle a blog for movie fanatics.
Which platform we need to be on?
Yeah, it is hard not to go for the sale straight out the gate. One point though: More followers= more people see your posts. Due to all the restrictions lately I am now building Pinterest but even they are getting strict now they have their own ads.
Hi Neil! What social media will you recommend for a legal services business looking playing in the B2B and B2C space?
For blog which social media is best?
Hi Neil,

Neil take me under your wing as a protege!!!!
Hi!..I have a website which helps to create online quiz and tests..so which social media platform should I use?
Hi Neil, I am running IT Recruitment firm, where i get more clients ?
Neil, I can’t tell you how much you have helped my business grow this year. I’m a telepsychiatry practice based in Miami and my demographic is mostly millennials, who are SO passionate about mental health. Psychiatrists typically are older, retiring, and don’t have as much of an online or social presence. It is really fueling my growth. What I am completely stumped by – Is what content to put into video format (YouTube). Nobody wants to hear symptoms of depression, nobody wants to hear boring things. What can I talk about? What can I do that would be fun? I think videos would set my business on fire! Also, how do I decide if my videos should be made for YouTube vs IG Stories vs FB Live – How do you decide which video platform to focus on? – Btw – You’re amazing, I went to SC but grew up in Fullerton so mad props ?? Thanks if you read this.
Hello sir, I am looking forward to start my blog by end of this month. I have learnt alot about hosting seo in past few months. And i like how your content really help in that regards… I was looking forward to signup with bluehost hosting. Their while signing up an options is to add Basic bluehost seo tool for 2$ a month which allows the following features:-
Search engine submission
50 page analysis
Weekly scan
10 keyword ranking reports
2 competitor reports
Monthly email report
Marketing report with 5 recommendations
So do you think it would be worth it? or should i spend that bucks elsewhere? There is no info about this in internet anywhere so i am unable to decide.

Thanks for all the great videos Neil. You Rock!! I have an environmental education center non profit and do wildlife rehabilitation. Struggling to have social media formats that really engage and develop interaction.
Hello Neil, thanks for you time replying to my question; I didn't try FB ads yet because I am not good at it. But, I will hire someone on Fiverr to run an ad for me. This way I can test my course landing page. It looks like my course description page needs a better copy since Udemy stats is showing me a conversion rate of 1.67% when driving 460 visitors over last 30 days. I already hired a girl on Fiverr to revise the copy. Once I get it, I will try FB ads for sure. Thanks for your help. I will follow you on FB.
