B2B Twitter Alternatives: Mastodon, Post & Others Offer New Marketing Opportunities
The surge of Twitter usage in the business-to-business world has opened up new and exciting opportunities for companies to engage and promote their products, services and ideas to a wide audience. However, there are increasing concerns over user privacy, censorship, and the amount of time and resources spent curating content for the platform.
In response, and as an alternative to Twitter, several new social networks have emerged for B2B enterprises. Leaders in this space include Mastodon and Post, but many others are striving to outpace these networks and become the go-to platform for B2B marketers and entrepreneurs.
Mastodon
Mastodon is a decentralized, open source and distributed technology with a global user base. It has no centralized server, no banned topics, and is free from many of the issues affecting Twitter. With its user base estimated to have grown to over three million users in 2020, Mastodon is becoming a popular and viable alternative for B2B professionals looking for an alternative to Twitter.
Post
Post is a private network for B2B professionals. It has been designed to create a space for technology professionals, entrepreneurs, and venture capitalists to share ideas, collaborate, and form professional relationships. It is private, secure, and free from external influences, while also offering advanced analytics and personalization options.
Other Alternatives
There are numerous other competitors in this space, including:
- ByteBoard – a private network for software and web developers.
- Clubhouse – a private voice chatroom platform.
- Discourse – a user friendly forum-style platform.
- Slack – a professional collaboration and messaging platform.
These networks all offer new marketing opportunities for businesses and entrepreneurs looking for an alternative to Twitter. With their strong privacy settings and exclusive user base, they are the perfect place for B2B professionals to connect and build relationships.
