Best Practices

• Include source links as much as possible in social media (when
posting to Facebook or Twitter).

• Facebook will automatically link a URL in a comment, in a post to
a Page, or on your Timeline.

• Images get the most Shares and Likes on Facebook.

• If building links on the web use relevant link text so instead of
writing “Click here” on a link to TerryPhillips.org you could write
“Terry Phillips for Congress”.

• Invites, Follows, and @Whoever on sites like Twitter send an
email message to the receipient (unless they disabled it).

• When posting to a Facebook page you have about 8-10 words
which will show up on the main page. Starting with a candidates
name and making your point in 8-10 words would be a good idea.
You can include more information and a link after that.

• Keep it clean. Keep it civil.

• Be awesome. This is democracy people!
