Have you ever pondered on how well you can be active and safe on social media without worrying about security thread while also building a great reputation that would work for your both online and offline?

With the emergence of social media, the world has seamlessly become small and people from all walks of life has been able to connect with each other, businesses have been able to monitor their competition and real time information goes round almost immediately...

Social media is the totality of communications done through online channels dedicated to community building collaborative-input, interaction and content-sharing. Websites, applications encouraging forums, blogging, networking, bookmarking and curation are few that consist the compound of social media.

Facebook is the most popular social networking platform allowing users to connect with each other, upload photos and video, send messages and keep in touch with friends, family and colleagues. Facebook was founded by Mark Zuckerberg February 4, 2004 and since then it has connected the world together and also making internet marketing a bit stress-less.

We have other Social media platform such as Twitter, Instagram, Linkedln, Reddit, Pinterest and Google+ etc...

With the current trend of social media it is quite difficult to keep private information or live a private life outside social media because we spend most of our time now online, either making money, doing business, chatting, connecting with people or researching.

With the rise of this, there has been many cases of security thread originated from social media, due to the carefree attitude of many social media users, its no longer news that scammers uses this medium also to dupe their victims.

How can this be prevented?

1 Lets start with your profile.

Your profile is visible to the public. Hence the need to make it real is inevitable because it would defy the purpose of connecting with people. Every information about you on your profile should be real and accurate but also avoid putting out to much about you there. Always be security conscious.

2 Your Pictures.

Pictures are other ways to control the way people see you on social media, the quality and posture you take determines how vulnerable you would be so keep it smart and moderate.

3 Your Tone.

The way you sound and the tone your posts takes plays a massive role on the type of people you would attract to yourself, so sound like a King to attract Kings or Bruja to attract Brujas.

4 Value.

How much value is associated to you social media, how frequently do you comment or react to peoples posts and what reaction and comment type do you give?

5 Resources.

How much resourceful information can be linked to you, do you just post anything "postable"?

This and many more can help you control your content and change the whole narrative...
