6 Tips to Fix your Instagram Engagement

Ah, the ever-elusive Instagram engagement rate...

Instagram can still be the sweetheart it once used to be...but only if you give it what it wants 💜.

Here are my top 6 strategies to increase your engagement rate.

Discover Your Best Time to Post

Posting when your audience is most active is a quick and easy win. The easiest way to find out is to click on your profile>insights>followers.

Start CONVERSATIONS with stories stickers

A great way to increase engagement is to create conversations. It is a sure-fire way to gain more trust and authority on the platform.

Encourage your followers to engage by using the question, slide to reach, and poll. And get specific. For example, if creating a poll of "Have you had breakfast yet", avoid using "Yes" or "No" as the options but instead use "Hell Yeah!" or "Can You Suggest". This creates an opportunity to DM your follower.

Discuss controversial topics

This can be really tricky as you don't want to show a stance that could affect yourself. But instead, ask your followers to share their opinion on a particular topic.

Go live with a similar account (preferably not a competitor)

Ever notice you get a notification whenever someone is live on IG? Also, I'd encourage you to invite your followers to join in the chat for some questions or just to say hi. IG will notify their followers as well that this particular person is live now.

Experiment with different post types

Instagram account can get a bit "stale". It doesn't excite their followers anymore as it's soo predictable.

Engage with other accounts

@thestevenmellor posted about the 10x2 method. If you haven't heard of it, basically:

Engage with 10 hashtags of your niche and 10 similar accounts of yours - leave 2 forms of engagement on their page (stories, comments or answering others comments).

There you have it guys. These are my top 6 tips to boost your engagement.

What do you think of this, or which one is your fav? Let me know in the comments ⤵️.

P/S: Tmr I will share how your engagement rate can tank, hitting rock bottom. Don't want to miss this as I see lots of people falling for this.

How to Perfectly Optimize your Instagram Profile

Your Instagram profile needs to be ready to convert followers into customers ✅✅.

Everything from your bio to the questions you answer can significantly influence your business reputation and how people perceive you.

The first thing a visitor sees is your profile picture 💯.

Your Instagram profile picture should be visually appealing and/or representative of what you offer.

The next most important is your IG Bio!

👉 I suggest keeping your bio clean, short and provide information about what you do with a call to action to your product or service.

Especially I have noticed some fitness coaches having bio-s that's not optimized and trying to convert followers into clients. That's like literally leaving money on the table.

Don't be that person. Use this guide and view some of your competitors profile to get some inspiration.

Optimize your bio today if you haven't already, and follow me for more IG tips 💥.

How Instagram Ranks your Posts

The Instagram Algorithm is a complex system, and it's hard to trust what you don't understand. 😕 There are many misconceptions out there. Here are some common questions about the Instagram algorithm: Why did my post get buried? 👉 In general, your content is not worthy enough to keep showing it. However, this is how Instagram truly ranks your posts. Instagram starts by defining the set of things they plan to rank in the first place. With Feed and with Stories, this is relatively simple; it's all the recent posts shared by the people you follow 🎯. Next, Instagram takes all the information about what was posted, the person who made the post, and your preferences. These are called signals. The most important signals across feed and stories, in order of importance, are: ✅ Information about the post - these are signals both about how popular a post is (think engagement), like when it was posted, how long it is if it's a video, and what location, if any, was attached to it. ✅ Information about the person who posted - this helps Instagram get a sense of how interesting you might be to a person and how many times a follower have interacted with you in the past few days. ✅ Your activity - Instagram shows you what Instagram know you might like. ✅ Your history of interacting with someone. From there, a set of predictions and an educated guess is made at how likely your post will be interacted with. Keep your posts interesting, click-worthy and engaging. This will ensure that you hit all the big 4s of what Instagram is looking for 💯. Follow me for more Instagram tips, and let me know which one you feel is the most ⤵️ important for you in the comments.
