Over the past year or two, you may have seen reports that Facebook usage is declining. Although the social network does have its issues and young people in particular are trying other sites and apps, it's important to remember that even now, the number of monthly active user on Facebook is still increasing, and with nearly two-thirds of Americans still using Facebook on a regular basis, those are numbers that digital marketers absolutely can't ignore.

Facebook marketing, much like Google ranking, is subject to ever shifting algorithms and changes in the marketing landscape.

But usually Twitter and Facebook visitors don’t roll-in in the 100s or 1000s. That doesn't mean you can't have success with a social media marketing campaign - it just means that you'll have to make it work for you.
