ChatGPT for content analysis and article outline; Grammarly and Hemingway for grammar check; Figma for visuals; CapCut for video editing

the simpler the better, clearly describing the content, with casual and friendly tone of voice e.g. for a feature survey: 'Decide on the future of XX with us' for a feature launch: 'Say Hi to {feature name}!' for a blog post promotion: '10 link-building tactics that work wonders'

Yes, it's one of my favourite parts of the job

Micro-influencer marketing for sure!

Don't waste time on paid backlinks , link farms, and PBNs, even if the sites seem to be authoritative

Facebook for me! Every time I post anything on our company page, I get bombarded with bots messages 'We're shutting down your page in 24h for policy violation'.
