Posts & Social
Posting best practices, mentions, hashtags, and keeping your profile fresh.
Posts keep your profile alive. They also create “freshness” signals that improve discovery.
Where it lives
- Main feed:
/ - Post pages:
/posts/[id]
Create / Edit / Delete (CRUD)
Create a post
Use the composer in the feed experience to publish:
- short updates (what you’re working on)
- insights (what you learned)
- project progress (before/after, lessons)
Best practice:
- keep it specific (context beats aesthetics)
- link to a project if it’s about that work
Edit / delete
Editing and deletion depend on post permissions. If you can’t edit a post, it may be because it’s already distributed in a way that requires safer handling. When in doubt, post a correction with context.
Mentions, hashtags, and linking
- mentions connect you to people and companies
- hashtags create topical browse paths
- project attachments make the post durable (“proof” lives on the project page)
Bookmarks and follows
Following people and companies shapes your feed. Bookmarking keeps things you want to reuse later (ideas, references, vendors, hiring signals).
