This week I finally was able to practice writing captions for the Monday and Friday posts which are Missing Monday and then on Fridays is promoting their podcast. It has been fun being able to think of what would have the information needed for viewers to get a good synopsis of what the podcast is about and what will make people click on the link.
Thankfully my boss is really easy to get in contact with if I have any questions. From last week, I was able to ask her what kind of cover she would want for the instagram reels and if she wanted me to use the same on as TikTok. Link to TikTok site: https://www.tiktok.com/@murdermurdernews
I am still getting the hang of what is the best to have for the caption for the twitter posts regarding the podcasts because you only get 140 characters and I want to make sure I put the right information in the post. We use a website called Buffer when I can pre plan the posts and it is very helpful because she can also see the posts before they go up and if I need to change anything.
Twitter’s character count was expanded to 280 awhile ago, so you are using an old limit. You might look into using a character counting web tool like this one.
I agreed these limits can be challenging, but that forces you to be creative. One accessibility note: make sure you use camel case on your hashtags so that screen readers speak them properly, like this: #MyFavoriteHashtag
