Good tags, great blog format, and I immediately saw a typo where “dal” should be “deal”. Every word is capitalized in your bulleted lists, was this intentional? I like that you emphasized how traditional media should be replaced.
Hi Ami,
Overall good job on your blog post. I really like how your blog is very simple but it has really good information. What really made me intrigued is the myths about social media and I wanted to know more about it. I completely agree with your point of social media not needing to be “viral”. That is so true because if you have good techniques such as reaching the right audience you can make an impact! and that going viral is just luck when it really isn’t. If you are smart with your social media you will get where you want to go.
Hi Ami,
I really liked that your blog post didn’t have a lot of words but still conveyed a lot of useful information. It’s easy to read and really esthetically pleasing. I also liked your use of tags.
