How Often Should I Post?

When it comes to blogging and social media, there is no right answer to the question “How Often Should I Post?”

The truth is this: The more you post – the better.

I can’t give you a magic number, because a lot of it has to do with the amount of time YOU want to spend posting!

But let me give you a few guidelines.

1. Facebook and Twitter – at least once a day. Even if it’s sharing a meme, a picture, or a quote.
2. Blog – At least once a week. Even if it’s a company news item, a photo, a weekly special, or a quick cell phone video.
3. Email Newsletter – at least once a month.

I know. That seems like a lot – but again – the more you post, the more effective your social media becomes. I’d highly recommend posting a lot MORE than these numbers…. but these are the minimum.

If you take the time to plan out your posts a month at a time, this becomes a lot easier. Blogs and Facebook have built in scheduling – so you can work ahead. Try hootsuite or buffer if you want to keep your scheduling in one place!

Whatever you do – post often. Post more than you think you need to post!
