Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest: What Social Networks Should I Grow?

By Jillian Leslie | Email Marketing , Facebook , Instagram , Milotree , Pinterest , YouTube

Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest: What social networks should I grow? Or should I just focus on my email list?

I get asked these questions all the time!

There is a simple way to figure it out. And the answer depends on asking yourself one question.

What is my one primary business goal?

• To grow traffic
• To grow sales
• To grow my brand awareness
• To grow my YouTube channel

Based on what you just chose (or what combination), here are my recommendations:

MY GOAL IS TO GROW MY TRAFFIC

Here’s my recommendation on what to focus on:

• Pinterest – Best traffic driver out there besides Google
• Facebook – For some people, Facebook is a huge way to drive traffic to their site. From what I’ve found, Facebook works best if you put some money into it.

MY GOAL IS TO GROW MY SALES

Here’s my recommendation on what to focus on:

• Email list – Highest return on your investment if you’re selling a product or service
• Pinterest – People are in a “buying” frame of mind on Pinterest
• Instagram – The hottest platform out there, and exciting new sales features!

MY GOAL IS TO GROW MY BRAND AWARENESS

Here’s my recommendation on what to focus on:

• Instagram – Great way to get you and your brand out there in a visual way
• Email list – The most personal way for you to connect with your audience
• YouTube – Another personal way for people to see you and your brand in action
• Facebook – You definitely need a presence on Facebook, but don’t expect big return unless you’re willing to pay for it

MY GOAL IS TO GROW MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL

Here’s my recommendation on what to focus on:

• YouTube (duh :)) – not only do you want to grow your subscribers, but because your latest video is featured on your pop-up, it will also lead people directly to your YouTube channel. And by doing this, you also get “brownie points” from YouTube because you’re bringing people directly to the platform!

The best part is it’s super easy to grow all these platforms (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest) and your email list with the smart MiloTree popup.

MiloTree one popup you set to grow your multiple platforms at once. Plus, you can set it up in under three minutes, it’s Google-friendly on mobile, and we have a simple WordPress plugin or one line of code to install it on your site.

Best Popup For Your Blog Or Business

By Jillian Leslie | Blog , Email Marketing , Instagram , Milotree , YouTube

The truth is out. Popups work! They easily convert your traffic into followers, subscribers, customers, and income.

But the question is what is the best popup for your blog or business?

This is where MiloTree comes in, because the MiloTree popup can grow many of your platforms at once.

With MiloTree, you can grow your Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and Pinterest followers, plus your email list. And that’s all from your one popup.

MiloTree asks each of your visitors to perform one action — to follow you or subscribe. Then when that visitor returns to your site, it asks them to perform another.

So if you configure your popup to grow your Instagram following, YouTube subscribers, and email subscribers, when someone comes to your site for the first time, they will see one of your personalized popups. Then, when they come back, they’ll see another.

Here are some sample popups from MiloTree customers.

YOUTUBE POPUP

INSTAGRAM POPUP

EMAIL POPUP

One will show randomly to each visitor. Then we know which ones people have seen, and show them another one.

Plus, we’ve worked really hard to optimize your popup so it shows the same popup, but a smaller, Google-friendly versions on mobile.

This way, you have nothing to worry about showing your MiloTree popup on mobile! Your mobile audience is important for the growth of your business!

Customize and add your pop-up to your site in under 3 minutes. We provide you an easy WordPress plugin or a simple line of code to install it.
