Social media has become the fourth most popular online activity ahead of email, with over 400 million Facebook users and 75 million Twitter visitors monthly. While 36% of online adults have social media profiles, seniors are also increasingly using social media. Popular sites for seniors include Facebook and Twitter, which are being used by senior living communities for marketing, recruiting, and engagement. When implemented effectively through transparent content and community building, social media can boost publicity and web traffic for senior living facilities.
