World Social Media Day occurs annually on June 30th.
On June 30th 2010, Mashable launched Social Media Day as a way to recognize and celebrate social media’s impact on global communication.
Love it or hate it – social media has changed the way that the world communicates. This way of communicating has vastly changed our lives and whilst there are well documented negative aspects to this type of communication – we want to focus on the positive effects!
What is Social Media?
In a nutshell, it’s online communication used by people to create networks and communities, to share information, ideas, messages, photos and videos. Think Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, You Tube, Pinterest …the list goes on!
Take a look at the Dairy Diary Facebook and Instagram sites where you will find regular recipes, news and product updates in addition to competitions and giveaways!

Five Positive Benefits of Social Media
1. Maintaining Relationships
Particularly during the pandemic, we saw how communicating online can connect us to our loved ones – wherever they may be in the world. Sharing photos, videos and talking online can be a great way of keeping in touch.
2. Make New Connections and Find Support
With so many online communities available, people can meet and interact with like-minded people who share common interests, problems, goals, and attitudes.
3. A Tool for Learning
Social media can help to broaden perspectives and expose users to different viewpoints and ideas.
4. Information & Awareness
It is important to assess the source of the information but social platforms can be a place to find out what’s going on and a way to get information to a lot of people quickly.
5. Interact with brands you love
Social media allows businesses to speak more directly to their customers and interact in a positive way.
