Keeping Fans Engaged on Facebook to Boost Your Organic Reach

Dec 2019

It may seem like establishing a presence on Facebook is impossible without paid posts. Even though social media has become a ‘pay to play’ game for many brands, organic content is still useful if you are able to keep your fans engaged.

If you’re able to post interesting content, you can spark up a conversation with your viewers and encourage them to interact with each other. There are approaches to Facebook posting that you can take to increase your chances of appeasing the Facebook News Feed algorithm and reach your audience effectively without constantly sharing paid posts. 

Establish Your Brand’s Personality

If you haven’t already, you should decide what your brand’s personality is, and remain consistent with it. Consider what you stand for and who your audience is. Engagement in social media sparks from building your viewers’ trust in who you are. 

Keep It Simple

Don’t try to outsmart your readers by overcomplicating your Facebook posts. In order to keep your viewers engaged, you need to share things that are easy to read and understand. Typically, longer posts test to be skipped over more, so try to get your point across in the simplest way you can. 

Ask Questions

One of the best ways to keep your fans engaged on Facebook is by asking questions tailored to your brand that spark a conversation. It gets the community talking and gives you a better idea of who your current audience is. An example may be, “How many hours of sleep do you need a night to feel well-rested?” or, “Uber or Taxi?”. Another idea may be asking a question about a current event in the news. 

Share Quality Images

“A picture is worth 1000 words” applies perfectly here. Share images that tell a story, reflect your brand’s personality and will catch your reader’s attention. For more information on sharing quality images, click here

Show Off Your Company
