The Importance of Posting (at Least) Six Times a Day

'Six times a day!?' We hear you ask. Yep, that's right, Six. Times. A day. At least. Why? Check out our main reasons below:

Less than six gets lost in the ether

With so much content going into platforms such as TikTok and Instagram on a daily basis, it's no surprise that fewer posts get fewer views, because as soon as you post, there will always be an influx of new content constantly pushing yours down.

To stand your best chance of being seen and getting those views, you'll need to post consistenty throughout the day, every day. EVERY DAY. If you're thinking 'Na', then this is definitely not the career for you. You may earn decent money with less but if you want to make the serious cash that could create generational wealth then get creating and start posting.

We actually recommend twelve times a day, so think of six as getting off lightly. Obviously, we'll help you with ideas; we'll lay out the road map, all you have to do is follow it.

Six or more allows you to see what works (and what doesn't)

Simply put, posting once or twice a day won't allow you to see what works and what doesn't. Because each day is never the same, to get the best idea of what kind of content will pay off, you'll need to study what happens with multiple peices of content spread throughout the day at regular intervals.

If one piece of content created around a viral trend is not getting views or interaction, try changing the time it's posted (evening instead of afternoon for example), as there will be certain types of subjects viewers may wish to engage with in the privacy of the evening instead of in the middle of a working day.

As long as you're posting, you can move things around as much as you like. Try new trends but keep others, as it may take a while for a trend to start catching on or for viewers to catch up.

Once you've been posting consistently for a month, you will be able to reliably track the success of each post and adjust from there moving forward. Hopefully by this point, things will be starting to take off for you.

Consistency is key

You must stay consisitent, as losing momentum and forgetting to post will affect how the alogrythm interacts with your posts, which may result in you not being showing to the viewers you need.

If you're brand new to creating content, creating six pieces a day can seem may to time consuming, so instead of creating six pieces every day, set aside one day a week when you can create a weeks worth of content. This will allow you to have a semi-normal life during the other six days each week.

Just post it

Do you think your content is cringe, silly or just not good? Post it anyway. Content doesn't have to be a cinematic masterpiece or have to be produced in a studio. Grab your phone, film something and post it. Post. Post. Post. Again and again and again. Every. Single. Day.

Scroll through your social accounts and find trends that work and copy (steal like an artist). Got a hobby or passion? Film yourself talking about it or showing off things you've done, achieved or created. Wanna talk about something random that comes to mind? Then go for it. The more natural it is to you the easier it will flow and the better the content will be.

If you've got nothing to say and don't want to share your interests, then just stick to the popular trends you find on social.
