The One Piece Of Social Content That Always Grabs Their Attention

Whether you are blogging or building a web site their is one piece of social content that will always grab a visitors attention and that is a graphic, picture of photo. Many people are visual and while the written word can send a message, a picture, as they say, can tell a thousand stories.

Humans are strange creatures. When it comes to pictures, it needs to be funny, cute, dangerous or just plain stupid – and I mean that in the nicest way. Social content that involves images that people can talk about will get shared. Cute animals, particularly if they are doing something strange, or acting human; funny cartoons; people jumping out of buildings and people doing something crazy to themselves like tattooing ads to their heads; these will all get shared
around the social networks.

If you think about it, finding a picture or graphic that fits one of these topics could be a social marketing dream. Place your site URL in one of the corners, or blazon it at the top or bottom, then let it go viral thoughout the social webisphere. Social content submissions like these can work wonders for your web site.

The next time you come across something that looks a little crazy, or a little too cute, think about whether or not you can capitalize on it through your social content programs. Opportunities don’t often come around like this, when they do you need to jump on them.
