The findings reveal a nuanced picture of user engagement across social media platforms.
While Instagram is the most preferred platform for news among Singapore football fans, with a huge majority indicating it as their primary source, the actual user interaction on Facebook appears to be more substantial based on firsthand experience.
Instagram
- Popularity: Instagram is the top choice for fans seeking news about Singapore football. Its visual-centric format, and features like Stories and Reels, attract a younger audience who prefer quick, engaging content.
- Engagement: Despite its popularity, the nature of interaction on Instagram tends to be more passive. Users often engage through likes and views rather than extensive comments or discussions.
Facebook:
- Interaction: Facebook, on the other hand, has shown higher levels of active engagement. This platform supports more detailed discussions, comments, and shares, allowing for deeper interaction with content.
- Demographics: The user base on Facebook tends to be slightly older, aligning with personas like David, who prefer traditional, detailed news formats. This demographic is more likely to engage in discussions and share posts within their networks.
Balancing Both Platforms:
To maximize engagement and reach, it's crucial to leverage the strengths of both platforms. Facebook's interactive nature should be harnessed to foster community discussions and detailed content sharing.
Meanwhile, Instagram should continue to be used for visually appealing content that captures the attention of the younger demographic.
By understanding and adapting to the unique user experiences on these platforms, we can effectively engage with a diverse audience, ensuring comprehensive coverage and interaction within the Singapore football community.
