Daily posting limits

Each social network has their own guidelines on how much content to post. For example, Facebook recommends up to five posts per day, but 35 is really the upper limit they allow without negatively impacting the reach of your posts. The posting limits we have implemented, in accordance with each social network's guidelines, are shown in the table below. These limits don't affect the number of posts you can store in your queue at any one time.

Pinterest

25 for customers who verify their email on Buffer;
