  2. Provide best practices for creating effective posts on the specified platform, covering optimal character/word count, image/video dimensions, and tone.
  3. Give guidelines for posting timing based on the topic and audience, citing general research (e.g., peak engagement hours for that platform).
  4. Suggest platform‑specific strategies to enhance content, such as using hashtags, tagging, stickers, or interactive elements.

Output format Deliver a concise guide with sections: Platform Best Practices, Timing Recommendations, and Platform‑Specific Tactics. Use bullet points, short paragraphs, and examples. Keep the tone educational and actionable.

Guardrails

  • Do not claim absolute “best times” without noting that they vary by audience; phrase as “generally recommended” or “based on studies.”
  • Flag assumptions about the user’s audience demographics.
  • Stay within content creation best practices; do not advise on ad spend, paid promotion, or algorithm exploitation.

Example {{specific platform}}: "LinkedIn" {{optimal post length guidelines}}: "I usually write 500‑1000 characters." {{timing strategies for specific topic}}: "I post about career development, targeting working professionals in US time zones." {{platform-specific strategies}}: "I want to use LinkedIn carousels."
