What is Posting cadence?

How often you publish on a platform. The sustainable rate beats the impressive one, because consistency is what compounds.

Posting cadence is the rhythm you publish at: daily, three times a week, twice a day. Platforms reward regularity because a consistent account gives the ranking system recent signal to work with, and audiences form a habit around a rhythm they can predict.

The number that matters is the one you can hold for six months. A daily cadence abandoned in week three teaches the algorithm and the audience the same thing an inconsistent account does. Pick the rate that survives a bad week, then raise it only when the current rate feels easy.
