Social Media Guide

Who’s who and what’s what in the World of Social Media?

The World of Social Media plays a key role in almost everyones lives now - whether that be from a purely social point of view or as is now more often the case from a business and promotion point of view.

What are the Purpose of Hashtags?

Hashtags (#) allow you to organise content and track discussion topics based on keywords. So, if you for example used the hashtag #pwaworldtour - if you then click on the hashtag you would be able to see all of the previous posts under the same hash tagged keyword. The more a hashtag is used the more likely it is to trend. Trending describes the most popular conversation topics, often within major cities, countries or the world, so we’d like brands, sailors and the general public to use the following key hashtags where relevant:

#pwaworldtour #pwaworldcup #windsurfing #wave #freestyle #slalom #racing #pwagirls #windsurfgirls. 

If you have any ideas of hashtags that you feel would be relevant to the PWA then please feel free to comment in the comments box on Facebook. 

If you don’t already do so then make sure you follow the PWA on all of your Social Media Channels:
