    9. Measure customers’ engagement

    You have to perform an experiment to find out when and what type of contents get people to respond the most. Try split testing on what kinds of post boost engagement significantly. If you have 10,000 likes, you probably don’t have that much of an engagement. Therefore, you need to publish a content based on a schedule. You can pick specific days and times to post a special type of content. For example, post pictures or videos every Monday and Friday, and long text on Tuesday and Wednesday. After you give it a try for several weeks, switch the schedule to find out which performs better.

    10. Make people feel to be a part of your community

    The other way to boost page engagement is to let people know what goes on in your page, whether you celebrate the anniversary of your business or reaching a milestone.

Therefore, you’re obligated to make an exciting content, excellent customer service, and make sure to be a good sport for your customer when it comes to dealing with business.
