GUEST POST: Infographic – Perfecting Social Profiles

In a break from our scheduled programming, we now bring you a guest post from an outside contributor. Here to talk about some things to consider when creating a social network profile, by way of a nifty infographic, is aspiring tech writer Ivan Serrano:

Public interplay is no longer just about social media; it’s also about perfecting a social profile, a persona, an exaggerated, created self.

Now, with so many different websites offering so many different outlets – it’s hard to keep track. You can keep your personal friends close on Facebook, your professional friends close on LinkedIn, and advertise it all on Google Plus. But how do you know which outlet is truly best for what? How do you target specific audiences on different websites, and get the most traction doing so?

Every page will inherently be different. While your Google Plus tagline should have 10 words or less, your Facebook About Short Description should have about 155 characters. You need to make sure that you’re getting the best visual exposure, which can be tricky with different image sizes used on different networks. It’s also important to know your audiences in order to know who will be following what and how to set up your social media profile.

Here’s an infographic giving some guidelines for various different neworks:
