Tips are ok, but this DOES NOT work for creative artists and designers. We are way too busy making high quality work than posting 10 times a week, getting the "right angle" for a "like". Instagram has turned into an "entertainment app" for clicks, rather than being creative, bonding with new friends, family, photos, etc. Its lost that workshop feel.

Instagram's algorithm has changed from "being there to bring people together" into "being there to isolate people". You literally have to fight against the algorithm in order to reach people. The new algorithm is designed to put you down and get you to spend more and more time on the platform trying to grow. Appreciate the tips but using social media should not be this stressful. Its supposed to be fun. I think I might give up the gram soon.

@Eagle_Owl2 Жыл бұрын

@@littledarlingwendy yeah. I know IG can be toxic in the way beauty standards and life styles are presented. But since I almost only follow art accounts it was always a quiet nook in the internet where I could just scroll through artwork, enjoy and get inspired. Now it's only fast-paced reels that either show no result (since artists have to post so often) or show it for only a split second. I actually like progress photos or videos, but they used to be an extra to the finished piece you could swipe to if you want. It feels all too hectic

@inkspirationaldesign Жыл бұрын

I find the time required to jump through IG’s hoops with more posts, reels more frequently might work for people who can mass produce their work like yourself. But for handmade arts & crafts and those that do renovations etc don’t have the luxury of time. Our creative endeavours take up so much time. I know for myself I spend as much if not more time making reels and editing photos with engaging captions than I do making my stuffies. I’m considering other platforms.

@1cosmicchaos1 Жыл бұрын

Seems like Instagram is changing so often and it's going to frustrate people. Not because they don't want to post but because they don't understand what they should be posting unless they are constantly keeping up with the trends and changes.

@Fidi987 Жыл бұрын

This is again one of these videos saying "become a workerholic for your hobby". If this goes on, who can blame people for leaving these "social" media sites? Instead of saying "post the best photo of your week so that your followers get constant inspiration of very good photos" it is saying "just crank out everything you got for the algorithm". I mean, thanks for the info, but for most hobby posters, this is just leading into some kind of burnout, leading people to connect photography or videography with stress instead of joy.

i think that and the insta algorithm just simply favors random insta accounts

@mag9797 Жыл бұрын

i think it has to do with individual interactions. I am less likely to comment and actively engage with an artist who posts every day, generic or similar drawings, but if the artist pulls out a masterpiece once a week i will coment and engage twice as much. It depends on which insta inner circle/community youre in at the end of the day

Yes I definitely see this aswell in the artist and creative community. I think people really forget that it's important to show something good. I've tried posting daily but noticed my content quality was getting worse and I didn't like the look of my feed at all. I think how your feed looks is very important for an artist. Now I try to post only quality posts as much as I can. Also... I rather engage with my existing followers and new followers who are actually interested in what I do than have a lot of likes from people who are just passing by. As an artist I think you've got to ask yourself what it's really about. Do you want to grow, no matter what, just for the sake of growing or do you want to grow a community that is actually interested in your art.

Hi Vanessa💕 I was doing my research on Instagram growth tips yesterday and I found your video. I watched it while taking some notes. After watching it, I quickly went to my Instagram and posted a reel using a template, short caption and no unnecessary hashtags, like you suggested since my video and caption already had the important key words. It currently has 1.2k views 😍 My business page is still really small (192 followers only) and prior to following your tips, my reels were getting stuck around 100 views. thank you so much I'll keep applying your tips 🥰

Thanks for sharing your experience with trending audios! Personally, we haven’t seen this pattern for our account, and find trending audios still help. At the same time, we diversify our content with original content as well.

Posting manually or times takes exactly the same amount of time. I hear so many don’ts that are outdated and so many do’s that are very time consuming that I wonder if Instagram is still even valuable for small time artists like me. Instagram still has no clue what my niche is, after years of consistently posting the same content it still exposes my posts to the wrong people. Instagram is changing algorithm so often that it’s crazy to keep up with it. Instagram has no clue what it wants to be and that’s the real issue. It should have stayed a photo app, that worked well. Now, it’s just not working for most anymore.
