Vertical “short videos” such as TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels are the most influential format in current social media marketing. But since users can easily swipe to the next video with a single finger, if you can’t capture their interest in the first few seconds, they won’t watch until the end. In this article, we will explain the composition points of short videos to keep viewers from leaving.

“The magical first 3 seconds” in short videos

The winner of a short video is determined by the first 3 seconds (or 1 second) after the video is played. If you are swiped here, your rating from the algorithm will drop and your video will no longer be spread.

Ideas for posting time to increase engagement on X (formerly Twitter)

Thu, 03 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0900

In order to disseminate information on X (formerly Twitter) and reach many people (increase impressions and engagement), the time of posting is as important as the content of the post. In this article, we will explain how to find the optimal posting time to suit your target audience and operational points to maximize engagement.

Why is posting time important?

Although X’s timeline is optimized by an algorithm, the initial response immediately after posting (the number of likes and reposts) greatly influences the subsequent growth in impressions. In other words, the first step to creating buzz is to post when your followers are most actively viewing their timelines and get instant responses.

Latest SEO algorithm trends for fall 2026

Sun, 30 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0900

The world of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is constantly changing, and it’s not uncommon for past common sense to no longer apply. As of fall 2026, Google’s search algorithm continues to evolve to become smarter and more focused on “user experience.” In this article, we will explain the latest algorithm trends and countermeasures that site operators should take immediately.

Three important trends in SEO algorithms for fall 2026

1. Rigorous evaluation of AI-generated content (full-scale operation of SGE)

Google is standardizing an AI-powered search experience called “Search Generative Experience (SGE).” As a result, zero-click searches are increasing because AI answers simple information (weather, calculations, word meanings, etc.) on the search results screen. In addition, “commonplace articles (mass-produced, low-quality content)” that are simply automatically generated by AI are now strictly excluded through spam updates.

Campaign planning to encourage user-generated content (UGC)

Fri, 28 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0900

In SNS marketing, the importance of user-generated content (UGC) is increasing year by year. This is because the real voices of ordinary users (word of mouth and photos) have a stronger influence on consumers’ purchasing decisions than unilateral communications from companies. In this article, we will explain the key points of campaign planning to naturally encourage UGC and create buzz.

Why is UGC important?

UGC is the “strongest word of mouth.” By spontaneously spreading impressions about products and services on SNS, you can increase awareness and credibility without spending advertising costs. In addition, secondary use (reposting, etc.) of the collected UGC as creative for official accounts and websites will help reduce content production costs.

Tue, 14 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0900

The importance of engagement on Reels

Instagram’s algorithm determines how viral a video is by comprehensively scoring how users interact with it (time spent, likes, comments, saves, shares, etc.). In particular, Save (stock for later viewing)'' and Share (share with others via DM or Stories)’’ tend to be highly rated.
