You don’t have to post all the time on social media. Even if you do it once a week to make it look active, you will begin to see an increase in traffic. Remember: only post valuable information. If you wouldn’t want to read it, don’t post it.

Use a social media management tool.

With these apps, you can schedule a month’s worth of tweets, FB posts, Instagram posts, LinkenIn posts in advance. And you can do it in no time, so you’re not always having to think about what to post on a daily basis. And still, you can post in real time if you come across something you want to post right away.
