The platform finder will help you find the right platform based on the audience you are hoping to reach and the content you choose to make. Different audiences consume digital media in different ways and producing content for certain platforms will help you reach a particular age range. If you’re interested in exploring a particular content type for your audience – audio, text, images or video – the platform finder will suggest to you the best platform for each format.
