PostEaseWhat a content pillar is
A content pillar is a recurring theme a business or creator posts about regularly: a category of posts, not a single post. Three or four pillars are usually enough to give an account a recognizable identity without narrowing it so far that there is nothing left to say.
A workable starting set for most small businesses
A reasonable default mix looks something like:
- Product or work in progress: what you make or do
- The people behind it, whether a team member, a founder, or a behind-the-scenes moment
- Genuinely useful tips related to your field, not just about your product
- Real customer moments, like a result, a review, or a use case
Revisit the pillars occasionally, not every week
A set of pillars should be stable enough to plan around for months, not reconsidered every week. If one pillar consistently underperforms after a real trial, revisit that one. Changing the whole set too often defeats the purpose of having a recognizable identity.
