OKCTalk on social media

Yeah Pete thank you for all your hard work. OKC is blessed to have this forum and the format is awesome.

This is interesting.

We posted the photos on First Christian this morning then the Oklahoman did the same about an hour later.

Look at the difference in numbers; this is typical and if anything our totals are usually higher (they are still going up). The local TV stations are pretty similar to the Oklahoman.


Twitter:






Facebook:





Instagram (Oklahoma didn't even post there):

Pete, I notice this happens to OKCtalk posts a decent amount on Facebook, but do you have any idea why FB will occasionally just drop a single image from a story into peoples feeds without the context of the story? It usually leads to several confused comments from people asking what is going on with the picture. Maybe it's just as you are uploading images FB is just sharing those out sometimes? Maybe you are posting them purposefully lol I dunno.



Here is a recent example. So this image just appeared on my feed alone. No story attached or anything. It also happened to me a week or two ago when you posted about the indoor gokart place, the picture of the model of the track just randomly showed up on my feed. And a few more times over the last couple of months.

Just curious if anyone else has noticed this or if it's just a weird FB glitch.

No idea.

Facebook is constantly changing its software, especially for businesses. All this Meta Business Suite malarkey.

I still post the same way I always have. I suspect it is just a glitch in the many changes Facebook has been making.

It's not a glitch as I notice this from personal feeds as well. If you upload more than 1 photo it will group them together in the same post, but also will treat them as individual photos/posts and randomly push it into a feed.

My recommendation would be to find the link to the main post containing all of the pictures, and then (on a desktop) click on each individual photo and add a comment with a short summary of what the post is about with a link back to the main post.

OKCTalk just blew past 190,000 social media followers.

Should pass 200K in the next 2-3 months.

Pete, Is there a way for you to know the percentage of social media followers by state? Or at least for one of the media platforms?

Yes, you can look at those metrics as the account owner.

For OKCTalk, about 95% of our followers are in Oklahoma.
