Today someone asked me why they are "not earning money even though [they] are interacting with others?"
I explained to them this strange but simple construct:
INTERACTING - when you make a post/comment and others respond.
INTERACTORS - the members of your audience that respond from you.
TIME - the observation of sequences and loops.
"AND?"
You might think, but look at the definition and ask yourself, "is your actions causing reactions?" most likely not. Your actions are not just the post and comment it is the wording order, the meaning, the point, the #tags/tags, the flow of your content & even what TIME you do all of this. Is it getting confusing or just too much? Okay, I'll break it down for ya!
Posting in your time frame can be tricky, because not everyone is on the same time zone. To get started in any time frame (Early Morning 2:30 am - 5:59 am | Morning 6:00 am - 9:59 am | Brunch 10:00 am - 11:59am | Lunch NOON - 1:59 pm | Afternoon 2:00 pm - 4:59 pm | Evening 5:00 pm - 9:59 pm | Night 10:00 pm - MIDNIGHT | Late Night 12:01 am - 2:29 am) try these tips:
--> Post a post every 15 minutes. these posts can be anything including "Purple" as an entire post. The action that gets the most views+comments/shares+likes/upvotes = target demographic. The demographics will show you which area of time works best for you. Continue this until you post at the beginning of a certain 15 minute window and by the end of the window, you can see results out starting interactions.
-->Keep in mind this may change as everything throughout time normally does. If you notice actions during certain times of the day, are not gaining reactions (views/comments/shares/likes/upvotes) then try changing the time per day. In Example, maybe 30 minutes later on Monday's but only 15 minutes sooner on Tuesday's.
--> Comments are just as important on what time frame you comment back. This is slightly different thou.
A) If you have an automated response bot, you may still need to respond again after the bot.
B) If you don't have automated response bots, you can respond during a set time frame that is easiest for you. Most responses you'll need to make is not time related. You can respond during two time frames (separated) in a day & after a while people will just understand that's your "work" time.
C) Even though you don't normally need to be quick to respond, the faster the response normally the better. A well timed response is 5 minutes after the reason for response to 15 minutes after the reason.
A TIP by me :: start off as option (B) then when you are pro do (C) once you have employees, hire people to just respond (A).
NOW do you understand how interacting and interactors are time related? I hope so.
Go out and try to gain new/more interactors!
