📢 Do You Use Social Boosting After Publishing Blog Posts?

Hey, Product Hunt community! 🙌 Recently, we've started exploring how social boosting can impact the visibility of our blog posts, and I wanted to share some thoughts. While SEO is key for long-term growth and driving traffic, social boosting can be a great way to accelerate the initial phase and achieve quick engagement. For us, this means investing in paid promotions on social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn) to reach a wider audience right after posting a new blog. Here’s what we’ve noticed: Faster initial traffic – Paid promotions help us reach users who might not have seen the post otherwise, leading to more views and interactions right after publication. Targeted advertising – With well-defined targeting, you can direct posts to those who would benefit most from your content, increasing the chances for engagement and sharing. Increased visibility for SEO – While paid posts don’t directly impact SEO, increased engagement can indirectly help your post get noticed by search engine algorithms. However, the question arises – does social boosting really provide long-term results, or is it just a short-term tactic that fades once you stop paying? And how important is it to balance between organic and paid approaches? I’d love to hear your thoughts! Do you use social boosting for promoting blog posts? What are your strategies, and have you noticed a significant impact on engagement or SEO results? 🤔💬
