Building social buzz: Our top 10 social media marketing columns of 2017

The social media marketing sphere just doesn't stop shifting, as new platforms arise and others fizzle. Our Marketing Land contributors covered the highlights from Facebook, LinkedIn and more.

Social media marketing is a rapidly evolving sector with so many twists and turns, it’s difficult to stay on your toes. Yet as marketers, we rely on keeping up to date with the latest social media trends in order to stay relevant. From the continued rise of live-streaming to the changing face of influencer marketing, plenty of developments surfaced in the social media space in 2017, and Marketing Land’s contributors helped us stay abreast of the most noteworthy topics.

Our readers seemed especially keen to learn more about LinkedIn’s Matched Audiences feature, partly because it had been anticipated well in advance of its release, but also because the platform was late to the targeting game compared with its rivals. Columnist AJ Wilcox explained why it’s a win for B2B advertisers and walked us through advanced email match strategies marketers can use with the targeting feature.

Meanwhile, Facebook still loomed large in 2017 and no doubt dominated our readers’ attention overall. The social behemoth announced changes to its rules surrounding ad transparency, as it continued to come under scrutiny following admitted metrics errors, as well as Russian-bought ads during the 2016 election. Our columnists covering everything you need to know about the social media megabeast, from how to increase your ROI on the platform to getting on board with Facebook Shoppable Feed ads.

To get up to speed on the past year, check out the top 10 social media marketing columns published on Marketing Land in 2017:
