Guys, we are working on an online document creator platform and we built social media channel, keep updating new contents about templates. However, we have got very few followers. How did you do to increase followers?

    Why would you expect many social media followers for a document creator platform? Maybe you should be targeting businesses or other potential users of your software.

    Ever lie awake worrying that you might be the only person who doesn't know what FOMO means?

    There are entire books and courses on the topic of social media
    management, it's not something that you can learn about through
    forum posts.

    As the previous poster stated, you need to ensure that you are
    posting on the correct platform, in your case that would probably
    be LinkedIn.

    You should post about other things besides your templates. Your
    content should be engaging, not constantly promoting yourself,
    because people don't find that interesting.

    If you product is legit and it's usable, you can create guides on how to increase income using your platform. The you put those guides on your social media channel.

    Next you buy ads on Meta, Google, Bing, etc., leading them to free content on your social media channel.

    This way you get more followers, if that's what you need.

    Which Social Media platforms are you on currently? Have you done keyword research for your product? If so I would suggest making videos and posting to YouTube with your keywords in the title, script, and description.


    Use the same keywords in your posts, videos, etc on other social media sites. Your posts and videos should explain how your product will help them and how it works. You can also give away free guides or trial of your product. Good luck!

      Twitter is the most difficult one to grow, but if you manage to do that, those clients will convert at a comparably higher rate than other platforms.

    Probably because it is a very hard market to get a foot into.

    Not affiliated with just showing as an example - https://www.canva.com/create/documents/

    The one above is free, but Word comes with most Windows OS even though more basic than the one above but it still does the basics.

    You only need to download XP virtually, (free to download still and install) which automatically comes with Word, Excell and so forth.

    As l said tough market to enter into and without a huge point of difference and or a massive advertising push it will take time.

    Look, people go to social sites to engage with friends are find funny, interesting content. Your entire strategy should be about creating those types of things - not for just anybody, but for people who might be interested in your actual products.

    Don't promote your products - at least not with the bulk of your social media posts. Post something compelling to those that MIGHT someday be interested in your products.

    If you sell bowling balls, post about interesting bowling stuff - techniques, pro bowler insights, funny bowling mishaps, etc.

    If you sell anti-virus software, post about fixing computer issues, how to set up a home network, how to set up an email account, etc

    No clue what a "document creator platform" is (unless it's something like Word and if so. good luck!), so I can't offer guidance about related things you SHOULD be posting about that people actually WANT TO view.

    One way to do this is to find people who are interested in your topic.

    Then just start following them. Once they see you following them, they can and will follow you too.

    This is a good way to get more followers.

    1-Use proper hashtags
    2-At the start,follow back everyone ,engage with everyone through comments
    3-Dont do follow-unfollow strategy,it will be considered as a spam

    To get more followers on social media, post consistently, use relevant hashtags, and engage with others in your niche. Sharing valuable content and collaborating can help, too. For a quick boost, you could try myinstafollow.com, but mix it with organic strategies for the best results.
