Social Media Holidays

February 9, 2016 by DreamPix

heartEvery day is a holiday – just look at “What’s Trending” on Twitter for proof … top trend today is #pancakeday! While some of the national days we observe may seem silly, they do offer business owners a marketing opportunity that can be capitalized on.

These holidays give us something to talk about when the conversation might otherwise be stale. Celebratory days help social media in three specific ways:

  • Prompt fresh ideas
  • Create buzz
  • Improve SEO by nature

As Valentine’s Day approaches and we march forward into 2016, I thought it appropriate to publish a list of other recognized days on tap for the year as it may come in handy for social media campaigns. Thankfully I have a 15-year-old daughter who is well on top of notable events such as No-Shave November.
