Frequently asked questions
Which social media platforms should I use?
Focus on 2-3 platforms where your target audience is most active. For B2B, start with LinkedIn and Twitter. For B2C, consider Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook. Quality on fewer platforms beats thin presence everywhere.
How often should I post on social media?
Aim for 3-5 times per week per platform. Consistency matters more than frequency. Use a AI website builder like We.Inc to maintain a regular posting schedule.
How long before I see results from social media?
