Fashion is exuberant. It is, in fact, all about being social and sharing one’s creativity with the rest of the world. So it is no small wonder that most fashion bloggers invest much time and effort in creating a buzz on social platforms.

Be consistent with your social URLs and your website link-back. Each platform should prominently feature your website URL for SEO juice and link-back power.

Research shows that when hashtags are incorporated in the middle of a status text, they leave a bigger impact. And appear less annoying.
