Read till the end for complete knowledge.


1) Before You Start — Decide What to Make (Niche + Voice)

Before making your page, you need to select a niche — what kind of memes your page will focus on. Stick to one niche for clarity.

👉 Some options: Political memes, wholesome pet memes, office humor, anime memes, crypto / finance jokes, etc.

After niche, decide your voice/persona → consistency matters.

  • Sarcastic

  • Wholesome

  • Ironic

  • Relatable

Start small: focus on 1–2 subtopics so your audience quickly recognizes what type of memes you deliver.


2) Essential Tools (Minimal Setup)

AI Image Generators:

MidJourney / Leonardo / Stable Diffusion / DALL·E.

  • Use ChatGPT to generate prompts for your meme images.

  • Example command in ChatGPT:
    “Make a funny meme about voters and politicians during elections, like when politicians promise free stuff and voters sarcastically judge them.”

Copy-paste the prompt into your chosen AI image generator → you’ll get the meme image.

AI Caption & Idea Generator:

ChatGPT / Claude — for captions, tweet threads, hook lines.

  • Example: Upload your image to ChatGPT and ask:
    “Give me titles, captions, tags, and hook lines that can make this post viral.”

  • Just copy-paste and post.

Editing & Layout:

Canva / Photoshop / CapCut (for video memes).

  • After generating images, edit them for your niche to make them attractive.

Scheduling & Analytics: Later / Buffer / Hootsuite

  • Scheduling: Create 10–20 posts in advance, these tools auto-post at the best time.

    • Example: Made a meme at midnight → schedule to post at 9 AM when your audience is most active.

  • Analytics: Check which post went viral, best posting times, likes, comments, shares.

  • Multi-platform: Manage Instagram, X (Twitter), TikTok, Facebook all in one place.

Content Bank: Unsplash / Pexels (for real photos)

  • Unsplash: Free, high-quality, copyright-free images. Example: “funny cat” or “political rally.”

  • Pexels: Free images + short stock videos. Example: “angry man shouting” or “dog running.”

These tools speed up workflow: generate image → get captions from ChatGPT → quick edit → post.


3) Instagram vs X (Twitter) — Key Differences

  • Instagram: Boosts Reels and engagement signals (polls, stickers, Qs). Reels/short videos give the best reach. (source: later.com)

  • X (Twitter): Promotes rich media (images, GIFs, short videos) + threads. Memes + punchy threads perform well. (source: Sprout Social)


4) Content Formats That Go Viral

  • Single-panel memes (fast & shareable).

    • Example: Cat angry at laptop → “When ChatGPT refuses to write my assignment for free.”

  • Carousel memes (story build-up).

    • Example:

      • Slide 1: Politician before elections → smiling.

      • Slide 2: After elections → ignoring calls.

      • Slide 3: Punchline → “Thanks for your vote though 😎.”

  • Short video memes / Reels / TikTok (trend audio + captions).

    • Example: Dog running in circles → Caption: “New Year Resolutions Day 2.”

  • Twitter threads with images.

    • Example:

      • Tweet 1: “How 2025 feels so far 🧵”

      • Tweet 2: Wallet empty → “January”

      • Tweet 3: Coffee addiction → “February”

      • Tweet 4: Sleeping at desk → “March”

      • Final: “Follow for more daily struggles 😂.”

  • Reaction / Remix formats

    • Example: Drake Yes/No meme →

      • No: “Work on Monday.”

      • Yes: “Scrolling memes till 3 AM.”


5) Daily Workflow — 30-Minute Routine

  • 10 min: Trend scan (Twitter trending, IG Explore, TikTok Discover).

  • 10 min: Generate 3 images with AI.

  • 5 min: Edit in Canva (add watermark/handle).

  • 5 min: Ask ChatGPT for 3 captions + hashtags.

  • Post → engage for first 30–60 mins (reply, pin comment).
