Frequently Asked Questions

Does posting time really matter?

Yes, but it's part of the puzzle. Great content posted at 3 AM might flop, but average content posted at peak times has a fighting chance.

Should I post on weekends?

Contrary to old advice, Saturdays are becoming effective for educational and personal growth content as users browse more casually.

How many times should I post per week?

For 2026, consistency beats frequency. 3-4 high-quality posts per week is better than daily low-effort posts.
