Social media

Using social media sites is a good way of increasing the popularity of magazines. Facebook and Instagram being the main sites. This will give customers quick and easy access to information about the magazine. There are many other social media site however Facebook Instagram and Twitter are the most used by the audience of the magazine (younger generation) social media is a suitable way of connecting/reaching out to the audience. Advertising through television adverts or and other form would make less population for the magazine as it is not a suitable way to reach the audience as normally the younger generation are interested heavily in there phones and computers and connect with each other frequently online therefor e website advertisements would also help a lot in increasing audience and sales. An online version of the magazine would be helpful and make it easier for some to access the magazine.

FacebookFacebook is good for sharing good to give links and share photo full detailed information. On Facebook you can also make event which is useful for fans of the magazine to keep up to date with things that are taking place related to the magazine, genre and content.

TwitterTwitter is also a popular social media site that would be useful in promoting a magazine many people have access to twitter. It allows you to follow accounts you may be interested. This is also a good way to get information to people. It is a good way to communicate with the target audience because it is aimed at a younger generation who are usually heavily connected using social media sites such as the ones listed.
