“Integration, Education & Socialization”
One of my fave chapters of The Art of Social Media has to be Chapter 5 “ How to Integrate Social Media & Blogging” I don’t know if it’s because I have just started by blogging journey or if because this chapter seemed to be more “Peg” than “Guy”.... There again are some basics such as the importance of curating yourself, adding drama be it through a photo , video etc. but they also review some great tips that some people may not have considered, simply overlooked or perhaps meant to but just never got around to it.

It’s all too easy to fall down the rabbit hole that is social media so we have to remember that nothing resonates quite like putting a face to that twitter handle or FB page etc. it helps build on that relationship. One of the final tips in the chapter gives you the 10 step process to “Peg your Post” which in a nutshell is integrating social media & blogging. Peg Fitzpatrick explains how she promotes one of her blog posts ( which of course involves using Canva one of Guy’s projects) it is a very in depth process but for anyone committed to becoming a blogging success I think it sets a good foundation to try and cross promote it in order to increase views, clicks followers etc. It is obvious that Peg is knowledgeable about blogging, Instagram, Pinterest and a myriad of other platforms and has successfully found a formula that works for her .
