     You cannot just broadcast your content into social-media, but not read, reply, and engage yourself — and be successful.

     You need to be social, too. You need to read, reply, and engage, too.

     Extant centralized social media is good for marketing (your content), not for the distribution of your content.

     So, many have a site that they own for distribution and use extant centralized social-media to market and get people there to the site they own.

     (Note from @reiver : I know a number of people who have been doing this for a while.)
