💡 Pro Tips
Front-load posts in 100 characters
Only ~100 characters show before "Read more". Lead with the offer, event, or update so it lands instantly.
Keep the description informational
Google rejects URLs and promotional fluff in the description. Use the 750 characters to clearly explain what you do.
Reply to every review
Responding to reviews builds trust and signals an active profile. Use the generous 4,096-character reply limit to be specific and gracious.
Use natural keywords
Include terms customers search for, but write for people. Stuffing keywords can hurt both readability and ranking.
Add a clear next step in posts
Pair your post with a call-to-action button (Call, Book, Learn more) so the message drives action.
Stay consistent across locations
For multi-location brands, keep descriptions and posts on-message and within limits everywhere.

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.
