Why LinkedIn?
Employers can list jobs and search for potential candidates.
Job seekers can review the profile of hiring managers and discover
which of their existing contacts can introduce them.
Users can post their own photos and view photos of others to aid in
identification.
Users can follow different companies.
Users can save (i.e. bookmark) jobs that they would like to apply for.
Users can "like" and "congratulate" each other's updates and new
employments.
Users can wish each other a happy birthday.
Users can see who has visited their profile page.
Users can share video with text and filters with the introduction of
LinkedIn Video.
Users can write posts and articles within the LinkedIn platform to
share with their network.
This is easily the largest social networking site in the world and one of
the most widely used. And, Facebook was perhaps the first that
surpassed the landmark of 1 billion user accounts.
Apart from the ability to network with friends and relatives, you can
also access different Facebook apps to sell online and you can even
market or promote your business, brand and products by using paid
Facebook ads.
Recently Facebook has lost the trust of millions of its users by
allowing 3rd parties to access over 87 million users’ personal data.
Tencent QQ (more popularly known as QQ) is an instant messaging
(chat-based) social media platform.
It became international (with more than 80 countries using it), after it
was launched in China.
It can be used to stay in touch with friends through texts, video calls
and voice chats.
 It even has a built-in translator to translate your chats.
This is an all-in-one communications app for messaging and calling
(similar to WhatsApp) that enables you to connect with the people of
your choice.
It was also developed by Tencent in China and can easily work
alongside QQ.
As per the BI intelligence report, the number of WeChat users are fast
catching up with the number of WhatsApp users.
Instagram was launched as a unique social networking platform that
was completely based on sharing photos and videos.
This photo sharing social networking app thus enables you to capture
the best moments of your life, with your phone’s camera or any other
camera, and convert them into works of art.
his is possible because Instagram allows you to apply multiple filters
to your photos and you can easily post them to other popular social
networking sites, such as Facebook and Twitter.
