The same editing is repeated as many times as the number of channels.
There are three things you actually do when you upload a video. All you have to do is upload the file, paste the caption, and set the reservation time. The problem is these three Start over from the beginning for each channel The point is to do it. If there are three channels, the same editing is done nine times, and the screens to check later are spread out in three places.
What's more troubling is that this repetition makes the phrase identical. When you get to the third screen, you'll usually paste the caption you wrote on the first screen. However, each channel has different character limits and link rules, and if you post the same article as is, your reach will be reduced.
I counted the reservation steps listed in the official help.
I did not feel it, but confirmed it in writing. In the scheduled posting document of each platform's official help, Only numbered steps We counted them and did not arbitrarily combine or split them. Logins and screen navigation were not counted unless the document had a number.
| channel | step | document |
|---|---|---|
| Step 8 | How to create and manage scheduled posts and Reels on Instagram | |
| Facebook Page | Step 7 | Schedule a post and manage scheduled posts for your Facebook Page |
| YouTube | Step 6 | Schedule video publish time |
| Threads | no document | I couldn't find any official documentation guiding the reservation process |
A total of 21 steps Three channels with reservation documentsIt is the sum of . Threads was subtracted from the total because the document could not be found, and the reservation instructions that appeared in the search were all third-party tool documents, so they were not used as a basis.
A window will open depending on the channel you selected.
BlueCanvas aims to reduce this repetition. BLUE POSTWe created it and are using it to operate our channel. There is only one creation screen, upload the file once and set the reservation time only once.
There is no need to memorize what else needs to be filled. When you select a channel The box required for that channel will then open.
- If you choose YouTube A title field opens. You can use up to 100 characters. If you leave it blank, the first line of the text becomes the title.
- Select Threads or Facebook Page The first comment box will open. You can use up to 2,000 characters, and the link is included here.
- The number of characters is based on the selected channel. Count each one. Instagram 2,200 characters, Threads 500 characters, YouTube 5,000 characters.
However, the first comment It doesn't go up automatically. After publishing, copy it from the record screen and post it directly. I even wrote that on the screen.
The text for each channel is written as “Write differently for this channel only.”
If you write a common text, all channels will use it. Up to this point, it is no different from pasting. Where it changes is the preview.
After selecting a channel from the preview, “Just use this channel differently”When you press , the text box dedicated to that channel opens. This method leaves the common text as is and replaces only the selected channel. 「Revert to common text」Press to return to the original state. Because the number of characters is re-counted based on that channel, you can see on the spot whether the common text exceeds 500 characters in Threads.
Today, prepare just one video like this.
I'm not saying you should change tools. If you prepare the next video in the order below, you can immediately see what is being repeated in the current method.
- First select the channel you want to upload to. Unconnected channels are excluded from consideration.
- Write the common text once, and write down only the channels you will use differently. You don't have to rewrite everything.
- Set a reservation time once. If each channel goes up at the same time, confirmation is completed at once.
The writing screen shown in this video is a reproduction. The three channels connected to the BlueCanvas account are Instagram, Threads, and YouTube. The Facebook page is also supported, but it is not connected, so it is written as unconnected on the screen.
