Here's how I leverage each platform to amplify my website posts, YouTube videos, and development projects while tailoring my approach to each platform's unique audience and culture.

Cross-Platform Synergy Strategy ๐Ÿ”„

Content Repurposing

  • One article becomes multiple posts: LinkedIn gets the professional angle, Instagram gets the visual summary, Threads gets the key insights
  • YouTube videos spawn social content: Behind-the-scenes on Instagram, professional insights on LinkedIn, code snippets on GitHub

Audience Journey Mapping

  1. Discovery: Users find me through platform-specific content
  2. Engagement: They interact with posts tailored to their platform preferences
  3. Deep Dive: Interested followers visit my website or YouTube for comprehensive content
  4. Community: They join my broader network across multiple platforms

Platform-Specific Best Practices ๐Ÿ“Š

Content Adaptation

Each platform gets tailored versions of my core content:

  • Audience-appropriate language: Business terminology for LinkedIn, casual conversation for Facebook, technical jargon for GitHub
  • Platform-native formats: Professional posts for LinkedIn, visual stories for Instagram, threaded discussions for Threads
