3) Instagram Facebook Twitter Youtube
4) Sun Bum uses all of their social media platforms consistently. 
5) Their last post on Instagram was 21 hours ago, their last Facebook post was 19 hours ago, their last Twitter post was 19 hours ago, and their last Youtube post was 2 months ago.
6) Sun Bum uses all of their social media accounts the same amount. They don't focus on only 1 or 2 of their accounts which helps exposure of the business. They are active on their accounts, as well as commenting and liking other accounts. The post multiple times a week on all social media accounts and have a good amount of followers.

After reviewing all of these accounts, I see that the majority of brands are focused on promoting on Instagram and Facebook. The use of other social media accounts are helpful, but the amount of activity seems high on those two social media outlets. I saw a lot of businesses promote or create events that reach out and connects them to their customers. Although some businesses had more social media accounts, it didn't necessarily mean that their activity on all accounts was high. Some brands although has only the minimal accounts, remain extremely active on posting of their brand. The layout and pictures of each website, or other social media app, created the clear focus that the brand wanted. These brands use their websites as a tool to properly represent their products and their own style they were going for.
