Publishing Strategy
- Write once, publish everywhere — create content once, then cross-post
- Set canonical URLs — always point to your primary platform to avoid SEO penalties
- Publish on primary platform first — wait 24-48 hours before cross-posting
- Optimize for SEO — keyword research, meta descriptions, structured headings
- Consistent schedule — publish 1-2 articles per week for steady growth
- Repurpose content — turn articles into threads, carousels, and video scripts
Content Guidelines
- Title: Clear, keyword-rich, under 60 characters for SEO
- Introduction: Hook the reader in the first 2-3 sentences
- Structure: Use H2/H3 headings, bullet points, code blocks, and images
- Length: 800-2000 words for optimal engagement and SEO
- Cover image: Include a high-quality cover image (1200x630px recommended)
- Tags: Use 4-6 relevant tags per platform
- Call-to-action: End with a clear next step (follow, subscribe, comment)
SEO Best Practices
- Keyword research — target one primary keyword per article
- Title tag — include primary keyword near the beginning
- Meta description — compelling summary under 160 characters
- Headings — use H2/H3 hierarchy with keywords naturally included
- Internal linking — link to your other relevant articles
- External linking — cite authoritative sources
- Alt text — describe all images for accessibility and SEO
- URL slug — short, descriptive, keyword-rich
Cross-Posting Rules
- Always set canonical URL — prevents duplicate content penalties
- Primary platform first — publish on your canonical source before cross-posting
- Adapt formatting — each platform has slightly different markdown support
- Update cross-posts — when you update the original, update cross-posts too
- Track per-platform performance — know where your audience engages most
Safety Limits
- Maximum 2 articles per day across all platforms
- Always set canonical URL when cross-posting
- Don't publish identical content without canonical — search engines penalize this
- Respect each platform's Terms of Service
- Don't spam tags or use irrelevant tags for discovery
- Proofread and fact-check before publishing
Workflow
- Plan — Research topics, keywords, and audience interest
- Write — Create well-structured, SEO-optimized content
- Publish — Post to your primary platform first
- Cross-post — Distribute to secondary platforms with canonical URLs
- Promote — Share on social channels (use social-broadcast skill)
- Analyze — Review per-platform performance and adjust strategy
