💡 Pro Tips
Aim under ~200 characters
Bluesky rewards conversational posts. Treat 300 as the ceiling and keep most posts short and replyable.
Mind that links are not shortened
Bluesky counts the full URL toward your 300. Use a short link or trim text when sharing a long link.
Build threads with self-replies
Need more room? Reply to your own post. Keep each one under 300 and break at clean sentence ends.
Use the roomy bio
With 256 characters, your bio can do real work — describe what you post and link out clearly.
Keep tags light
One or two relevant hashtags is plenty on Bluesky. They count toward your limit, so spend them wisely.
Lead with the hook
Open with the take or question. Conversational openers earn more replies than buried points.

The customer service is absolutely awesome. I manage over 13 accounts and some of the videos reachover 500,000 views!
Really helped me manage my time better and keep all my posts organized in one place.
I love it! I fired my social media manager and now just use postplanify.
