- I'd focus on optimizing the website for both desktop and mobile devices, as device distribution is almost equal. I'll prioritize important content and calls-to-action for easy access on both platforms
- Since maximum engagement occurs on LinkedIn, I'll concentrate on incorporating eye-catching visuals and leveraging popular hashtags and trending topics on Twitter and Reddit to increase content visibility and attract more followers
- Efforts to reduce bounce rate will involve improving website navigation, clearer call-to-action buttons, optimizing meta descriptions and titles, and crafting crisp content
