FAQ
How many groups should I join?
Start with 3-5. Quality engagement in a few groups beats passive membership in dozens.

How often should I engage?
2-3 times per week minimum. Consistent, valuable participation matters more than frequent posting.
What's the best group for beginners?
Dumb SEO Questions for SEO help (no judgment), The Daily Carnage for general marketing, or Rachel Pedersen's group for social media manager career advice.
