The Davis College maintains a social media presence on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. We follow WVU social media guidelines. If you’re interested in creating a social media presence for your division or program, email Leah Smith.
Already manage social accounts for a Davis College affiliate? Below are some general tips:
- Generally speaking, we recommend posting 1-2 times per day on Facebook, 2-4 times per day on Twitter and 2-3 times per week on Instagram. If you don’t have original content, feel free to re-share posts from our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts.
- Engage with other WVU colleges and programs. Comment on and like their posts. Re-share items that are suitable for your audience. All of these are great steps toward growing your followers. Don’t forget to tag others (WVU colleges, community partners, etc.) in your posts when appropriate.
- Avoid sharing flyers or images with text on them. They can’t be read by screen readers and are not compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Instead, use a representative image and include important information in your post text.
