7 Trends That Will Change Social Media in 2017

Social media was a big trend setter in 2016 and will be no different in 2017. Live video content is on the rise — in fact, 14% of marketers experimented with it in 2016, according to Social Media Examiner, and 43% plan to use interactive video this year. Social media ecommerce will become a powerful avenue for sales in 2017.

Key Takeaways:

  • It’s the start of another year, which means you’re probably back in the office after vacation, hard at work on your New Year’s resolution.
  • While there are a ton of streaming sites and platforms out there, both Periscope and Facebook Live are among the most popular — and they have the numbers to prove it.
  • Good question. First and foremost, you’ll want to consider where your audience already spends time on social media — and try to connect with them on those networks.
