Cracking the ALGORITHM In 3 Stages: How Your Existing Instagram FOLLOWERS Affect Your GROWTH.

Guidance on navigating the problem.

Stage 1: Two key factors the algorithm analyzes each time you post new content are:

1. How relevant your post seems to your existing followers
2. Their history of interaction with your posts

Instagram’s algorithm rewards posts that quickly gain high engagement (watch time, likes, shares, saves, comments) from your EXISTING FOLLOWERS, especially early on. This signals that your content is valuable and worth showing to a broader audience.

While there is no magic percentage, aim for high initial interaction rates of 10%+ from your followers. This means you need 100 reactions from every 1,000 followers to signal algorithm VERIFIED, depending on your total follower count.

Stage 2: The algorithm then expands the post to a broader audience.

Stage 3: If you successfully sail through the first two stages, congratulations! Your video is recognized as exceptional by the algorithm, leading to an explosion of engagement.

Question: Are you anxious about whether your content will achieve virality?

Aside from consistently creating valuable content, keep in mind that Meta and Instagram are built on interests. Your content must first meet the interests of your existing followers before reaching others.

Problems may occur if you:
1. Have been inactive for too long.
2. Post content that doesn’t match the interests of your existing followers.
3. Have a significant number of fake or bot-generated followers.
4. Changed the direction of your content and goals on Instagram, diverging from what the algorithm has established for your page.
5. ⁠Had local-based followers but has now relocated

The 4 Immediate Solutions:

1. Take your time and be patient. Optionally, you can start by unfollowing inactive followers who don’t engage with your posts, including friends and family.
2. You can enlighten your friends and family that it doesn’t hurt to like, comment, share etc instead of looking through without interacting.
3. You can keep them, but be deliberate about your upcoming goals and intentions.
4. Ensure consistency in posting to trigger a new set of interests, new followers, and hopefully, the algorithm will eventually recalibrate to the new YOU and YOUR GOAL by generating a new INTEREST CODE.
