| Platform | Aspect Ratio | Ideal Length | Post Frequency | Content Style |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Instagram Feed Primary platform | 1:1 / 4:5 | Single image | 1-2x/day | Curated, aesthetic, high-quality |
Instagram Reels Algorithm favorite | 9:16 | 15-30 sec | 3-5x/week | Trendy, engaging, quick hooks |
TikTok Virality engine | 9:16 | 15-60 sec | 2-3x/day | Raw, authentic, trend-driven |
YouTube Shorts Discovery tool | 9:16 | 15-60 sec | 1x/day | Educational, entertaining, value-driven |
Twitter/X Community building | 1:1 / 16:9 | Single image | 3-5x/day | Conversational, witty, interactive |
Pinterest Long-tail traffic | 2:3 | Single image | 5-10x/day | Inspirational, aspirational, high-quality |
Starter (0-10K followers): Instagram + TikTok. These two platforms have the best discovery algorithms for new creators.
Growth (10K-50K followers): Instagram + TikTok + Twitter. Add Twitter for community engagement and brand outreach.
Scale (50K+ followers): All platforms. Add YouTube Shorts for long-term SEO traffic and Pinterest for passive reach.
Create one base photoshoot (100 images), then adapt into 20+ unique platform-specific posts. Maximize efficiency without sacrificing quality.
Base Asset: 100 outfit images (1 shoot)
5 outfits × 20 angles = 100 total images
Repurpose Into:
Total Output: 56 pieces of content from 1 photoshoot
Manual approach: 56 posts × 20 min each = 18.7 hours
Repurposing approach: 4 hours shoot + 3 hours editing/adaptation = 7 hours
Savings: 11.7 hours (62% time reduction)
Captions:
150-200 characters. Ask engaging question. Include 10-15 hashtags (mix of big + niche).
Best Times:
9 AM, 12 PM, 7 PM EST. Weekdays perform better than weekends.
Content Strategy:
70% lifestyle/aesthetic, 20% educational, 10% promotional. Reels get 3x more reach than photos.
Hook:
First 3 seconds determine success. Use text overlay with bold claim or question.
Sounds:
Use trending sounds (update weekly). Check TikTok Creative Center for top sounds in your niche.
Hashtags:
3-5 max. Mix trending + niche. #FYP doesn't actually help despite myths.
Titles:
Keyword-rich, under 50 characters. Include numbers ("5 Ways to...") for higher CTR.
Thumbnails:
Not visible in Shorts feed, but important for search/suggested. Use face close-up with text.
CTA:
End with "Subscribe for more" or "Follow on Instagram @handle" to funnel traffic.
Format:
Short punchy text (under 280 chars) + image. Threads (3-5 tweets) get 2x engagement.
Engagement:
Reply to comments within 1 hour. Quote-retweet fan content. Be conversational, not promotional.
Frequency:
3-5x/day minimum. Twitter favors active accounts. Use scheduling tools to maintain consistency.
Reels get 30-50% of all Instagram impressions. Post 3-5 Reels/week for maximum growth. Copy trending formats from Explore page.
Use Instagram's Collab feature to co-post with similar-sized accounts. Instantly exposes you to their audience. Aim for 2-3 collabs/month.
Post 5-10 Stories daily with polls, questions, quizzes. High story engagement signals Instagram to boost your feed posts.
Use hashtags with 10K-500K posts (not millions). Create 5 hashtag sets, rotate them. Track which sets drive most discovery.
Jump on trends within 48 hours of emergence. Check TikTok Creative Center daily for trending sounds/hashtags in your niche.
If viewers don't stay 3+ seconds, TikTok kills reach. Start with bold statement or question. No intros!
Reply to top comments with new videos using TikTok's "Reply" feature. These often outperform regular posts.
TikTok algorithm favors consistency. Post same type of content 20-30x before pivoting. Confusing content kills growth.
YouTube Shorts show in regular search. Use keyword-rich titles/descriptions. Research with YouTube autocomplete.
Shorts viewers convert to long-form subscribers at 10x rate vs ads. Always CTA to subscribe in first 5 seconds.
Post 1 Short daily minimum. YouTube heavily promotes channels with upload consistency. Use scheduling.
Once at 10K+ subs from Shorts, pivot to long-form content for higher monetization. Shorts build audience, long-form builds revenue.
Reply to tweets from larger accounts (50K+ followers) in your niche. Witty, valuable replies get seen by their audience.
Write 1 educational thread/week. Threads get 10x more impressions than single tweets. End with CTA to follow.
Tweet "controversial" takes or questions that drive replies. Replies = engagement = algorithm boost. Stay authentic to brand.
"New post on Instagram 📸" with preview image. Drive followers to primary platform while maintaining Twitter presence.
Strategic cross-promotion converts casual followers on one platform into super-fans following you everywhere.
These platforms have best discoverability. Most new followers start here.
Funnel Strategy:
Add CTA in video: "Follow my Instagram for daily content @handle" OR "More tips on Twitter @handle"
Put links in bio to other platforms
Comment pinned post: "I'm most active on [primary platform]!"
Feed posts build deeper connection. Move Reels/TikTok followers here.
Funnel Strategy:
Stories: "Just posted on TikTok! Go watch and like 💕 [swipe up]"
Feed captions: "Saw this on TikTok? Follow there for more @tiktokhandle"
Bio: Linktree with all platforms listed
Direct communication channels for brand deals and product launches.
Funnel Strategy:
Instagram/TikTok: "Join my exclusive newsletter for BTS content [link]"
Twitter: "DM for brand collabs" + email in bio
Offer exclusive content/giveaways for multi-platform followers
Run monthly giveaway: "Follow me on Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter for 3x entries!" This tactic can convert 20-30% of single-platform followers to multi-platform fans.
500K+ combined followers across 4 platforms
"Multi-platform saved my business twice. When Instagram engagement tanked (algorithm update), TikTok kept me afloat. When TikTok threatened US ban, I already had 200K Instagram followers as backup. Never depend on one platform - it's business suicide. Plus, brands pay 30-50% more for multi-platform packages."
Start with 1-2 platforms max (Instagram + TikTok recommended). Master content creation and posting rhythm on these before expanding. Trying to launch on 4 platforms simultaneously leads to burnout and low-quality content. Add new platforms once you hit 10K followers on primary.
Change captions, crop ratios, and presentation style. Same image can be: aesthetic post (IG), trend adaptation (TikTok), inspirational pin (Pinterest), conversational tweet (Twitter). Audiences rarely follow you on all platforms, so 90%+ won't notice repurposing.
TikTok for raw discovery, Instagram Reels for monetization, YouTube Shorts for longevity. TikTok can take you 0-100K fastest (3-6 months), but Instagram has better brand deal opportunities. YouTube builds long-term passive traffic. Ideal: Start TikTok, monetize Instagram, compound YouTube.
With automation and repurposing: 8-10 hours/month. Break down: 4 hours content creation, 3 hours adaptation/scheduling, 2 hours engagement/analytics, 1 hour strategy. Use tools like Buffer, Planable, or N8N for cross-platform scheduling. Manual approach would take 40+ hours/month.
Yes! Instagram favors aesthetic/aspirational, TikTok wants entertaining/trend-focused, YouTube values educational/valuable, Twitter prefers conversational/relatable. Same photo shoot can serve all, but framing changes. Example: Beach photo = "Living my best life" (IG), "Beach day outfit check!" (TikTok), "Vitamin Sea 🌊" (Twitter).
Partially. Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest support auto-posting via APIs. TikTok requires manual posting (API limited). YouTube can be automated. Best approach: Schedule Instagram/Twitter/Pinterest, manually post TikTok during high-traffic hours (6-10 PM). Takes 5 min/day.
Instagram: Engagement rate, reach, saves. TikTok: Watch time, shares, FYP appearances. YouTube: AVD (average view duration), CTR, subscriber conversion. Twitter: Impressions, engagement rate, profile visits. Track weekly, compare to previous period. Focus on engagement over vanity metrics (follower count).
Don't force all trends everywhere. TikTok trends stay on TikTok (unless they cross over). Instagram Reels trends are usually 1-2 weeks behind TikTok. YouTube Shorts don't need trends - focus on evergreen searchable content. Twitter has its own meme culture. Let each platform breathe.
