Social media helps people stay in touch with each other more easily, as well as reconnect with people they may have once known but lost contact though you may live far away from each other. It plays a very important role in making events. For example, you have to plan for a school event but you can’t do so during school timings. So, you can communicate via social networking sites without having to pay. They are also becoming increasingly important for business. You can post an advertisement on facebook which can be seen by millions of users without having to pay much of a cost.
Through social networking sites, you can find jobs. It helps in spreading news. For example, the new prince of UK, George Alexander Louis’s birth news was put on many social networking sites. People who did not know of this news came to know it. So, it is also a means of information.
Social networking sites help you express your feelings freely. Some people are naturally shy and can’t express their feelings.
Social networking sites even help us for entertainment. We can also see videos through them.
Social networking sites are good till people do not add strangers.
Some examples are MySpace, Tumblr, Facebook, Twitter, Vine, etc.
Social networking sites even help in improving your language. Personally, my English has improved by seeing my posts on facebook. It is because foreign people comment on pictures and the words that they used came into my daily language.
They develop abilities such as photo shopping, video making, etc.
Newspaper companies such as new York times have pages in facebook through which many people can get news instead of buying the newspaper.
Debating can be done through posts.
Social networking sites are even used for reservations. We can send a message to the person via facebook and you may book an appointment.
