Hashtags Narrow Down Your Search Results
Hashtags are now used all over social media rather than just on Twitter. Use hashtags that will allow you to narrow down your search results so that you only find window installation companies that people love and that are nearby.
Use Twitter’s Advanced Search Features
Another easy way to narrow down your search results on social media to only the most relevant ones is by using the Advanced Search feature that is found on Twitter. There, you can type in the keywords that are appropriate for your search, such as “window installers,” as well as tell the site what geographical area to search within in order to find only the most local options that will also be the most affordable for you.
Ask Your Network of Friends for Help
Sometimes simply asking for referrals from your friends and family on your various social media pages is the very best way to come across a company that you will love. So put it out there that you are looking for a reliable and affordable window installation company that is local. Your connections may be able to point you in the right direction, especially if they, too, have recently had their windows changed and had great results with a particular organisation.
In order to allow more people, including those outside of your own social network, help you, use hashtags that people will be able to search for. Just make sure that your profile is public. Otherwise, this technique will not help you.
Check YouTube
Many local businesses of all sizes are taking advantage of YouTube to post online commercials that promote their work. You never know what you will find. Again, just visit the site, type in relevant keywords as well as your city, and see what pops up in the search results.
You may be pleasantly surprised by just how easy it is to find great businesses on social media. By knowing how to use hashtags and how to perform searches, your Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter accounts can do the hard work for you.
