In today’s article, we’re sharing Clapper’s five best trends for social media this October! You’ll notice a few hot topics from our October guide, as well as some more unique trends for social media. What can we say: we’ve got some creative creators!
Keep reading to get caught up on the latest Clapper trends for social media and learn how you can get involved!
Halloween Costume Drop 🧟
Get into the Halloween spirit with Halloween Costume Drop! With this trend, creators are using our slideshow feature to share their favorite costumes from Halloween’s past. Grab some pictures of your best costumes, find the perfect spooky song, and post your costume drop under our “Share your past Halloween costumes!” Add Yours sticker! Don’t forget to use #CostumeComeback in the caption!
#FamiliaClapper 🧡
Hispanic Heritage Month on Clapper just wrapped, but the fiesta isn’t ending! Our #FamiliaClapper hashtag is still going strong. Creators are sharing their content to connect with other creators in the Clapper familia. This hashtag has become a hub for our Hispanic community. If you want to connect with Hispanic creators from all niches and communities, you’ve got to check this one out!
Before/After: Halloween Edition 🎃
Why pick one Halloween activity when you can do them all? Before/After: Halloween Edition lets you live out all your spooky season dreams! With this trend, you share your best Halloween transformations. Decorating your space, getting ready for a party, baking some Halloween treats – it’s all fair game as long as it’s Halloween! Just be sure to use the “Share your Halloween before and after.” Add Yours and the #SpookySeason hashtag.
Then Vs Now ✨
A lot can change in ten years. Get nostalgic with this slideshow trend! Post a picture of you from 2014, then another from 2024. Or put your own spin on it and throwback to another iconic year in your life. Just be sure to use our ThenVNow Add Yours sticker and the hashtag #ThenVNow. Bonus points if you use a 2014 bop…or a song from that one U2 album that ended up on everyone’s phone.
Mi Casa Es Su Casa 🏡
Clapper launched in Mexico earlier this month! Help us welcome this new community to the Clapper fam with the Mi Casa Es Su Casa trend. All you have to do is create a video introducing yourself and sharing advice about how to grow on Clapper. Your video doesn’t have to be long either; just a minute and one quick tip is perfect! Use our Mi Casa Es Su Casa Add Yours and the #MiCasaEsSuCasa hashtag to join this trend.
