Commenting BACK On Social Media

Hi there. I know many of us post on social media and oftentimes wait and hope for someone to do two things:

  1. Comment (and like or +)
  2. Click through to our website (buy)


Let's talk about the first one. If someone comments on your social media post are you commenting BACK or are you hitting "like" or "+"? I've been watching this lately and notice that there aren't as many comments back to the person who took the time to leave you a comment...even if it's on social media.

Ready to put this into action?

Just like we learn to engage here at WA and on our websites, I think we should be engaging with people when they leave us a comment in one of our social networks. In fact, sometimes what I like to do is to leave the author a question, that seems to compel them to respond. And then I respond back.


I think this also goes to how we post and even if we're asking for comments or leaving opportunity for questions. And we then respond.


What do you think? What do you do when someone leaves you a comment? I like being liked but I also like when someone talks to me...that's a plus!
