Frequently asked questions

Which 2026 dates are especially worthwhile for X?
Anything with real-time and conversational character: Black Friday (Nov 27) and Cyber Monday (Nov 30) for offers, Halloween (Oct 31) and New Year’s Eve (Dec 31) for community posts, World Emoji Day (Jul 17) as a playful hook. X rewards fast, pointed takes on the topic of the day.
How do I get from the calendar to a finished X post?
Select dates, adjust the content idea, download the CSV — the file uses exactly the import format of the PostPublify year planner (date,time,content,platforms). After the import, all X posts sit in your calendar as scheduled drafts.
Public holiday or awareness day — which works better on X?
Awareness days: they are conversation starters, not days off. On public holidays X activity tends to be subdued — but feed competition is smaller too. The calendar lets you filter both separately.
How early should I plan X posts for awareness days?
The post itself belongs on the day — the planning weeks before. Rule of thumb: plan campaign dates like Black Friday 4–6 weeks ahead, and draft reactive occasion posts at least one week in advance (editorial recommendation).
