Benefits of social media

Disadvantages of social media

- Obscure algorithms and shadow banning may cause your messages to not be visible to your followers
- People use social networks to communicate, advertising is unwanted in most cases
Your activity on social networks
It is advisable to create a page or profile on various social networks. In your communication you can announce promotions or new products.
The viral effect is larger when your contacts share your activities with their own contacts.
