Just like the wedding photography industry, social media is constantly evolving. It seems like every week there are updates and adjustments to the various platforms (some of them are great and some require you to modify your strategy).

Social media platforms like Facebook have (quite literally) billions of users spending hours on their sites each and every day. Facebook is a fantastic venue to use to implement social media marketing for wedding photographers. Once you start posting, though, you will soon realize that the engagement you see varies dramatically. A lot of this has to do with the algorithms Facebook uses to distribute posts. However, even up against the ever-changing algorithms that are used, there are Facebook business page tips and strategies to maximize your engagement.

Facebook is an ideal social platform for wedding photographers to use to share their images and content. With constant changes and adjustments, it is essential to maximize your presence on Facebook and encourage interaction on your business page.
In our previous posts, we discussed how important it is to share your wedding photography with your ideal clients on Facebook. We also shared how to increase engagement through the text you write. Today, we will take a look at how you can increase interaction on your posts through Facebook’s tagging features.
When you tag people in your wedding photography posts, you increase the reach of your photo dramatically. In most cases, tagging people causes the photo to show up in their news feed. When it appears in their news feed, they can interact with it and share it with their followers. This means your images and content are in front of a larger audience than just your followers.

Facebook has long been a popular medium for professional wedding photographers to post and share their images. The social media giant has changed dramatically over the years, and it’s no secret the amount of engagement that each post sees is significantly lower than it once was.
With engagement dropping, it is more important than ever for photographers using Facebook to post their wedding photography pictures to understand how to maximize engagement. In our previous post, we shared how to maximize engagement on your business page with your images (after they’re color corrected by a wedding photography editing service). In this post, we are looking at tips to increase Facebook engagement as it relates to what you write.
The data is in… shorter posts create more engagement on Facebook. Posts that had 81-249 characters in the text received 60% more engagement than posts with 250+ characters. And, posts that contained less than 80 characters in the text received a huge 166% increase in engagement over posts with 250+ characters. To put that in perspective, that is almost three times the amount of engagement!
