Analytics
must
be used to identify the right time to post. The content
should be scheduled at apt
and
regular intervals. This
is
better done
using scheduling tools.
The
most

though

may backfire.
In
order
to avoid excessive damage from such incidents,
audience's reaction to every
post
should be assessed.
