Cadence is how often you publish: daily, three times a week, weekly, monthly. The right cadence is the one you can sustain without quality dropping. LinkedIn's algorithm rewards consistency because regular posting trains the audience to expect content from the account, and the algorithm extends distribution to accounts that keep producing. A weekly cadence held for a year outperforms a daily cadence held for two weeks. The threshold accounts struggle past is 2-3 posts per week, which is enough to build momentum without burning the writer out. Voice tools and batch-writing workflows exist mostly to solve the cadence problem: getting a week of content from one writing session.
Examples
- Posting twice a week for 6 months consistently beats daily posting that fades after 3 weeks.
- A founder who blocks Friday morning to write the week's content produces more reliably than one who posts when inspired.
