Not exactly.
Social media itself isn’t a social science — it’s a technology and a platform (like Instagram, X, YouTube, etc.).
But it is studied under Social Sciences like sociology, psychology, media studies, communication studies, and even political science.
So think of it this way:
Social media = the tool.
Social science = the field that studies how people behave, interact, and influence each other on that tool.
It’s more of a subject within social science, not a social science by itself.

Social media optimization (SMO) refers to the creation of online content that is likely to be shared through social networks.

That said, social media optimization is gaining importance as social sharing is increasingly being integrated into search results.
