What are the perfect social media posts to spark target reader interest in your book? Answering that question is an important early step in a successful book publicity campaign. By now, there is enough experience promoting books on social media that more is known. In the early days, everyone was learning through trial and error. The most productive posts will depend on you and your book's genre, but there is advice to share for authors who want to learn more about optimizing social media posts. The goals are to grow your following and build rapport with your audience so they will buy your book.

If you are outgoing or humorous in ways that are easy for many people to understand and not be offended, you have a natural knack for posting. But if you're quieter and more introspective, having some suggestions and guidelines can be especially helpful. For example, facts and figures that are interesting and informational can be good for posts. If people find them interesting, they'll share them with others. It's an easy way to reach more people and grow your following. If you're a nonfiction writer, watch for new developments in your field. You can post or comment on them easily.

Items in the news also make interesting and popular social media posts when you select them wisely. Unless your book is about politics, you're advised to avoid political posts because you can alienate readers who disagree. Thankfully, there are news items of interest that don't take a political point of view that can cost you followers. You can also speak to the media for interviews or to be quoted and post links to the coverage that mentions you. Fans will enjoy reading or watching videos, and you'll improve your stature in their eyes. The same goes for events you hold; share videos and photos. 

You can post tidbits from your book if you're a novelist or other fiction writer. For example, fans love learning about your book and its characters. You can talk about the location/setting, clothes and food the characters enjoy and other details from the story. Because social media is two-way communication, fans can post their questions, and you can answer them when appropriate. People will likely share parts of it with others as you begin to engage in a dialog. In addition to communicating with your existing audience, the goal is always to get new followers. Growing your audience helps your book promotion.
