#socialbloggers 98 // Social Media n Stuff

1

Hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi. Social media is cool but hard work.

I’m not a people person so I find it hard to do the social things. I set all these goals to be more active but it’s so draining for me to do.

I can schedule tweets and reply to some, but unless I’m in the mood, it’s not something I can do easily.

I see some bloggers who Tweet all the time and I get so jealous about how often they do it and how easy I find it. I work at it constantly though and hopefully it will get easier over time!

EXTREME TWEETERS – HELP ME.

This chat was interesting. It’s interesting that so many people like Instagram the best and struggle with interaction on there. How many of you lot leave comments on Instagram photos? I know I just like and them move on! It’s weird how it seems easy to reply to a Tweet, but to comment on an Instagram photo seems a lot more effort. Maybe it’s because the user experience doesn’t seem so seamless. Or something. Sssssseeeam.

Okay let’s go.

2016 (6)

Q1: What’s your favourite social media and what’s the most common struggle you face whilst using it?

A1: my most favorite social media is Instagram (FO SHO). My biggest struggle? “IS THIS INSTAGRAMMABLE?” #socialbloggers

@Noor_Unnahar my fav social media is Snapchat…struggle is only my real life friends and all my exes are following me #socialbloggers

Instagram but I can’t seem to grow it #socialbloggers @Noor_Unnahar

— Lou | NaturallyBeige (@naturallybeige) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A1 instagram, defo! Biggest struggle is finding a balance between ‘aesthetically pleasing’ and real life! #socialbloggers

— lily kate france (@JoliHouseBlog) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar Instagram. And the fact you can’t click links and getting followers is the hardest thing ever #socialbloggers

— Tamzin? (@TamzinSwann) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar love Instagram but feeling so uninspired by it right now #socialbloggers

— Laura Nolan (@Laura_Nolan22) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar I enjoy Twitter the most. I’d say the struggle is showing your personality in 140 characters #socialbloggers

— Bex (@bubblybex3) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar #socialbloggers A1: My fave SM is Twitter cos it’s so interactive, but Tweets can get lost in the feed quite easily

— Aoife Ryan | Blogger (@aoifeweefa) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A1: My favourite social media is Twitter! I struggle most with tweeting on a regular basis! Uh time zones #socialbloggers

— Jenn ? (@ASpoonfulOfSugr) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar IG! Biggest struggle is keeping to my colour theme. But everything I own is pink so it’s not too difficult! #socialbloggers

— Kat ? (@themousechick) 19 March 2016


Q2: Is there any social media you abhor or just don’t like much? Why?

@Noor_Unnahar A2: I’ve never got on with Snapchat! But never say never #socialbloggers

— lily kate france (@JoliHouseBlog) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar Facebook..too much irrelevant information and photos

— Natasha (@natashakhalidxs) 19 March 2016

Snapchat because I always forget about snapping stuff #socialbloggers @Noor_Unnahar

— Lou | NaturallyBeige (@naturallybeige) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A2) I don’t like Facebook that much, never anything new, just older relatives going on about their lives #socialbloggers

— Pinja? (@pinja_k) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar Facebook I never use it! Always forget about snapchat too! #socialbloggers

— Laura Nolan (@Laura_Nolan22) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar Pinterest …I pin shit that I never even go back to reference. And only have it cuz people swear it’s magic. #socialbloggers

— Thetongueinchic (@tongueinchic_) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A2: I’ve never used Pinterest. I find I’m on social media a lot so I try to stick to Twitter, IG and Facebook! #socialbloggers

— Kat ? (@themousechick) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A2 I see a lot of people using Pinterest but I don’t really get it at all! #socialbloggers

— Oliver Ranson (@Ollyr94) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar #socialbloggers A2: Facebook. Almost impossible to get visibility unless you pay for ads. Which I refuse to do.

— Aoife Ryan | Blogger (@aoifeweefa) 19 March 2016


Q3: If you could invent your own social media channel, how would that function? And what would you name it?

@Noor_Unnahar Q3: Essentially Instagram but with clickable links and more affective hashtags #socialbloggers

— Gwennan Rees (@20sMeltdown) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A3 Wow, I can’t even begin to describe it in 140 characters! #socialbloggers

— Oliver Ranson (@Ollyr94) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar #socialbloggers A3: not sure but I wish hashtags & mentions worked on Snapchat!! ??

— Aoife Ryan | Blogger (@aoifeweefa) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar Something that would collate blog and article content, rather than it just being about sharing links! #socialbloggers

— Kat ? (@themousechick) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar I’d bring back old school MySpace #socialbloggers

— That wise lady (@pinknotpartying) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A3) Oh that’s tricky! I seriously have no idea, feels like we have it all already! #socialbloggers

— Pinja? (@pinja_k) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar somehow a mixture of Instagram, Twitter and snapchat #socialbloggers

— Laura Nolan (@Laura_Nolan22) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A3) Unmoderated SocialMedia channel w/blogging+comments+CreativeCommons sharing of photos+videos. HappyShare #SocialBloggers

— Panty_Buns (@Panty_Buns) 19 March 2016


Q4: What would you do if all the social media platforms shut down for a day or two?

@Noor_Unnahar #socialbloggers A4: Im sure Id live!! There’s a lot more to life than social media ??

— Aoife Ryan | Blogger (@aoifeweefa) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar Or might i do my homework at last? 😀 #socialbloggers

— Kinda Barbie (@KindaBarbie) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A4) I think I would actually watch movies, read, bake… do stuff I now feel like I don’t have time for #socialbloggers

— Pinja? (@pinja_k) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A4 it’d force me to stop procrastinating and revise more! #socialbloggers

— lily kate france (@JoliHouseBlog) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar binge watch PLL go on a long dog walk and a long ride out on my horse #socialbloggers

— Laura Nolan (@Laura_Nolan22) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar Art! I love painting and drawing 🙂 #socialbloggers

— Kat ? (@themousechick) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar blog #socialbloggers

— Bex (@bubblybex3) 19 March 2016

@Noor_Unnahar A4 I would get withdrawal symptoms and wouldn’t know what to do. Is that bad? #socialbloggers

    I like Twitter and Snapchat the most. With Twitter, I can get updated even on social issues and what’s “in” and Snapchat, you don’t have to post aesthetically pleasing photos and I can be myself

    I love instagram, I think it’s definitely my fave – just wish it could have clickable links to blog posts though! I also struggle with Twitter, I just can’t keep up with it x

    My favourite is definitely Instagram, I find a lot of other pages boring. There is more interaction at times. But, it is hard to keep those numbers up as one post can bring lots of new followers and a different post can cause you to lose them. But, I find not taking it too serious helps really and just having fun and then you find brilliant people 🙂 x

    I am trying to build my Instagram and Twitter as they are my favorites. However I completely agree with the frustration of Instagram not allowing clickable links and Twitter’s 140 character limit!

    My favourite is definitely Instargram, it is easier to catch up. Most of the time I just like the photo but there are times where I feel like commenting. “What time should I post” is one of my struggle 🙂 I can live without social media. For this chat, I set up my alarm for not forgetting to join this chat however due to some terror attack in Istanbul, government limited the access to Twitter and Facebook until today (so I missed it again) and I was fine with it. At least there are other things I can check 🙂 x

    If all the social media platforms shut down for a day or two or for a week or a month, I think it would be so refreshing to concentrate on real life and what’s in front of us again. We’re now prisoners of our devices.

    I’ve been spending 90% of my social media time focusing on Instagram since that is what I as a user enjoy more! But now I am lost and really need to learn how to build up my Twitter since that is where so much traffic can come from! I’ll have to look back through your older posts for some help in that area!

    Interesting to see all these answers! I think my favourite is instagram, just because I love taking photos and looking at photos haha! I try to comment on them, but I’ll end up having a good day or two and then not comment on any for ages. It does feel like more effort than tweeting a reply does! (but I suppose that’s why it’s lovely to get insta comments!)
