Now that I've created my WordPress, I'm wondering if I need to start using other social media platforms to promote my work. They're just so foreign to me.

I have a Facebook, where I spend most of my time. I have a Twitter which was mandatory for a college class five years ago. I've never used it.

I've never really been a fan of Snapchat, Instagram or Pinterest because they're just as self-centered "look at me" as Twitter. I have a LinkedIn but, again, don't use it, except to confirm friend requests. Since I use Google/Gmail, I automatically have Google+ but what does it do? Haven't had a MySpace since the early 2000's. I have a Quora, which someone here told me to open after I posted one of my poems but I've yet to see any redeeming value.

But, what are these other social media platforms- Reddit and Tumblr and stuff like that.

There are 17 social media platforms listed in Wikipedia. WTF??

Start with one and get it right, then spread to other platforms.

If you are trying to get better ranking on the internet , you can link your social media accounts to your website

But, I don't use those sites. I'm asking if I should.

@Melbates yes, you should. First they provide links that the search engines use to determine your rank. Second you will reach more people that will read your blog. When I do this for clients, I use the proper keywords too.

What type of work are you promoting?

The current website is just a blog about mental and physical illness. But, the one they are going to for would be to promote my work as an editor.
