Which social media platforms should makers actually be using in 2026? On this episode of Creative Makers Podcast, we break down the major social media platforms—YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and more—and talk about which ones make sense for makers, woodworkers, CNC shops, laser owners, and 3D printing creators.
We’ll cover the rules of each platform, algorithm changes, content length, posting frequency, and what type of content performs best. From short-form viral clips to long-form educational videos, we discuss how to create content that builds an audience, drives engagement, and supports your brand or business.
Whether you’re just starting out or trying to level up your maker content, this episode will help you decide where to focus your time—and where not to waste it.
