A guideline, not a guarantee. Facebook limits vary by account age and history. Warm up new accounts slowly, keep delays generous, and pause if you see warnings.
What's a safe delay between Facebook group posts?
A 5 to 15 minute delay between posts, with randomization, is a good, safe starting point. Longer delays are even better. New accounts should sit toward the higher end and increase volume gradually, since Facebook's limits depend on account age and history.
Posting-safety questions
What is a safe delay between Facebook group posts?
There is no single official number, but a 5 to 15 minute delay between posts, with randomization, is a good, human-like pace. Longer delays are even safer. New or low-history accounts should sit toward the higher end and warm up gradually.
How many groups can I safely post to per day?
It depends on your account age, history, and delays. Established accounts posting with generous randomized delays can reach many groups a day; new accounts should start small and increase slowly while watching for warnings.
Why does randomization matter?
Posting at exactly the same interval looks automated. Randomizing the delay between a minimum and maximum makes your activity look like a real person, which is safer.
Does PilotPoster handle delays automatically?
Yes. PilotPoster posts one group at a time from your own browser with smart randomized delays, so you get organic pacing without managing it by hand.
