An inactive account with no content can make people think your station is closed or abandoned.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, you can send us your photos, updates or news and we will share it on Kayakomat\u2019s central channels. That way, you still get visibility &#8211; without the need to manage your own page.
