Content Credits

The blog currently holds 151 Chinese articles and 151 matching English versions across 14 topic categories, covering Instagram, Threads, TikTok, Facebook, LINE and Telegram growth tactics, plus adjacent subjects such as e-commerce platforms, review management and creator monetization.

Topics come from two places: questions people actually search for ("how is the Instagram following list ordered", "what to do when Threads blocks you"), and questions we get asked repeatedly while running the service. We do not write articles just to fill out a category.

Four rules govern every factual claim in an article:

• Platform documentation first. Algorithms, eligibility thresholds and policy terms change often, so we go to the platform's own documentation and official announcements rather than trusting secondhand write-ups.
• Data carries its year. Any figure we cite is labelled with the year it comes from, so readers can judge whether it still holds.
• If we cannot source it, we do not write it. We would rather drop an impressive-sounding number than publish one we cannot trace. Softened phrasings like "industry average" or "estimated at" do not get a pass either.
• Platform versions are kept apart. Douyin (China) and TikTok (international) run on different rules, and feature availability differs by market — we spell that out instead of blurring the two.

Every article keeps two dates: the publication date never changes and records when the piece was originally written, while the last-revised date moves only when the content is actually edited.

Social platform rules shift quickly, so we periodically revisit factual claims in older articles — especially pricing, eligibility numbers and whether a feature still exists. Bumping a date without changing the content is not something we do.

We do not block AI crawlers. ChatGPT, Perplexity and similar tools are free to fetch and cite this site, and we welcome source links in their answers.

• robots.txt — open to GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User and others across the whole site (only the dashboard and API are disallowed)
• llms.txt — a summary index of the site for large language models
• llms-full.txt — the full index of all 302 Chinese and English articles
