Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about social media post optimization
How often should I check my post quality?
It's recommended to check every post before publishing, especially for business accounts. As you develop better posting habits, you may need to check less frequently, but it's always good practice for important announcements or campaigns.
What's a good quality score to aim for?
A score of 70+ is generally considered good, 80+ is excellent, and 90+ indicates exceptional content quality. However, focus more on the specific recommendations than just the score itself.
Can I use the same post across all platforms?
While you can repurpose content, each platform has unique characteristics and audience expectations. It's better to adapt your content for each platform's specific requirements and culture for optimal performance.
How important are hashtags for post quality?
Hashtags are crucial for discoverability on platforms like Instagram and TikTok, moderately important on LinkedIn, and less critical on Facebook and Twitter. Quality and relevance matter more than quantity.
Should I always follow every recommendation?
Use the recommendations as guidelines, but also consider your brand voice, audience preferences, and content goals. Some suggestions may not align with your specific strategy, and that's perfectly fine.
