I assume you have already done it if you've tried everything, but reels are a strong tool rather than posts (which can be strong too but I believe not as much)
Posting something in a specific hour can help too (note that I am not an expert, but this is what I have discussed with other people and experienced..)
For example, there's content more likely to be interacted with at 13h and not at 17h. It also depends on traffic I suppose, don't think posting it at 2am will do any good.
thank you, though my reels aren't really reaching people... i use relevant topics, hashtags, popular audios ect.. ive tried the timing thing but idk if its doing anything
Do you use a lot of hashtags? I've heard, but I am not any sure, using too much isn't great, and using 5 at most is ideal, if that makes any sense
oh, really? why?
ive seen posts of others creators do great with like 20 #
Dont know how true are this sources
But both have the same point
I have seen a lot of posts with a lot of hashtags, too. I've also seen that a lot of these have the hashtags in the comments, I don't know the point of that, sorry, but it might have something to do.
But this is what I've heard and read
I don't know if someone here can confirm this 🤞
Personally I use 3-5 relevant tags per post to avoid breaking any of instagrams guidelines
try some flashy editing on some food reels and it will probably do good
I think thats the current meta
Just try and make the posting presentable if its a food blog. I think blogs like this have a certain type of aesthetic if u have any reference or inspiration then great
thank you guys! im trying all this stuff currently, rn not much is happening but imma try to stay consistent and hope 4 the best
That is the most important part, consistency. You can use all the tips and tricks in the world, results may vary, but being consistent is probably always going to be the best method to growing, however slow that may be lol
