World Social Media Day 2021

What is World Social Media Day?

Launched on June 30th, 2010 by Mashable, world social media day is a day to celebrate the impact of social media on global communication.

 Social media impacts personal lives and businesses by bringing people closer together and making businesses (and brands/celebrities) more accessible. Social media platforms have helped people to find interests or products more quickly and conversely, help to give businesses more information about a current/potential customer; what they’re interested in, and where they are located. It is now much easier for businesses to define their target audience as it helps to determine whether they would be a perfect consumer for their product or service.

 These days, it could be considered strange if a business isn’t on social media. Social media platforms have helped to expand business outreach and get products or services known to different locations around the world, something which wouldn’t be possible if traditional marketing was still being used at scale, as it previously was before social media use introduced.

Social media has also impacted individuals because it helps them to communicate with each other better and helps families to connect globally. Social media has made communicating certain issues around the world a lot easier as well as encouraging people to celebrate online events. Before social media updated enough for businesses to use, people had to call a customer service line, send an email or visit the establishment. Social media has brought more direct engagement between businesses or businesses to consumers. It’s created a faster and easier way for businesses to engage with their customers and increase visibility.

Why do we celebrate World Social Media Day?

 Social Media day is celebrated because it’s our main source for communication with people, businesses, influencers and helps companies build reputations and create connections for those who use it as the main platform. It’s has become a huge source of news, shopping, and general events or updates so we should enjoy the positives that it brings.
