Meta Introduces New Educational Resources to Boost Engagement on Threads
October 21, 2024 (V SOCIAL MEDIA OF HOLLYWOOD) – Meta has announced the launch of new educational resources designed to help users of its platform, Threads, improve engagement and visibility. According to the company, these resources aim to provide users with best practices, data-backed tips, and content examples from successful creators to enhance content creation and drive conversations on the platform.
In the announcement, Meta highlighted several insights already helping users grow their audience. For example, replies account for nearly half of the views on Threads, suggesting that joining conversations can increase reach. Additionally, posting frequently—at least 2 to 5 times per week—has been linked to higher impressions per post, and humorous content has shown to receive more views. According to Meta, combining text with video or images, and posting during weekends, can further boost engagement.
The new resources are available on the Threads website and include detailed advice on how to create more engaging and discoverable content. Topics that generate high levels of replies include TV and movies, fashion, sports, and travel, among others.
"We created Threads because we think everyone has something worth saying, and we want you to be able to create a community around your best ideas and most interesting thoughts," the company stated. Meta plans to continue adding more insights and stories from successful creators in the coming months.
