Avoid using offensive humor. Steer clear of humor based on race, gender, disability, religion, or other sensitive topics unless you’re absolutely certain it aligns with your brand values and audience preferences.

One way to avoid offending your audience is to always be mindful of the language and tone you use—keep it respectful and inclusive. It's also important to stay away from controversial topics unless they align with your brand values and audience. A good tip is to know your audience really well, so you can tailor your messaging in a way that resonates without stepping on any toes. And don't forget to proofread your content before publishing—sometimes the smallest mistake can be misinterpreted.
