Social media has not only transformed our social lives, but it has also revolutionized the way businesses work.

Social media acts as a major medium of communication between business owners and consumers.

While users may be the same, the way to target audiences on various platforms can be different. It also depends on the business niche, as to which platform will suit a particular niche much better than the others.
