Are longer posts better than short?
Read this article by Agora Pulse. My conclusions:
- Long is good for articles
- Author did research to say short LinkedIn posts did well
- I don’t like this test because it tested the wrong idea… articles vs posts, very different things when short or long, but the stats on short posts is interesting
Do hashtags matter?
Hashtagging does seem to still work according to Captevrix.
What are good angles for personal posts?
I read this guide from Lempod. Highlights below:
