What is a repost? Today this word is very popular. While reading any articles or comments on the Internet, you can often stumble upon such a request as: "Make a repost."
In this article, we will take a closer look at the meaning of this concept, and also discuss the scope of its application.
What does repost mean
A repost is an opportunity to share someone else's publication on your own page on a social network, leaving it in its original form while maintaining a link to the source.
Today, you can “repost” certain notes on various social networks, including Vkontakte. Moreover, you can save the information both on your page and share the note with a friend.
How to repost on VKontakte?
Under the post you are interested in, hover your mouse over the arrow and you will see people who have already repost.
See screenshot below:
After clicking on your computer screen, a menu with three sentences will appear:
- Post a note on your page.
- Repost in a group by going to the "Community Subscribers".
- Send a note by selecting "Send a personal message" to your friend.
If necessary, you can repost in VKontakte with a comment by entering it in the top line. In addition, the user has the ability to attach an image, document, photo, audio or video materials to the note being sent.
What is a VKontakte repost with a timer? Not so long ago in VK it became possible to set the time at which the note will be posted on the page. To do this, select the appropriate time in the menu, and then define the audience.
Today, reposts help keep information relevant to users, spread important news, advertise a product or service, and also make money.
Also, reposts play an important role when you need to notify as many people as possible about an event: a wedding, fundraising for treatment, launching a business project, etc.
