We’re sure you’ve heard time and time again that including social media in your digital marketing strategy is crucial in 2024. But we’re going to keep telling you anyway. Because it really is that important. We’ll even back it up with stats like 43% of consumers browse social media to find goods and services.
We’ll also stress the importance of creating good content that your followers want to engage with. An average person spends just 35 minutes a day on Facebook. That means you have a very short amount of time to grab their attention and convince them that your content is good enough to earn a like or comment. Creating that quality content at a high rate is easier said than done, though. If you want to post once a day, or even multiple times a day, where are all those ideas supposed to come from? Thankfully, there’s a social media holiday for just about every day of the year. You can pick and choose the ones that best relate to your products, services or customers to create unique posts that will engage your audience and grow your following.
We’ve crafted a mega list of 2024 social media holidays starting with the month of March so you can begin this strategy right away. It includes everything from National Puppy Day to National Lazy Day (the two most important days if you ask us) and some relevant hashtags for each day. Make sure to keep a list of all your faves or bookmark this page so you can refer to it all year!
We hope this big list of 2024 social media holidays inspired you and got you thinking about how to build a solid content strategy. From the weird to the funny to the important, each occasion being celebrated on these days is an opportunity to connect with your audience. After all, 76% of social media users have purchased something they saw on social media. The longer you can keep them engaged with your content, the more opportunities you have to show them all your great products or services. Every holiday might not be relevant to your industry or specific business, but this is a handy resource to have for when you need a little help coming up with something to post.
