You can grow on instagram, also depending on the niche, but to grow you need to put a lot of effort in. No effort no grow! Always be up with the algorithm change , adjust and then keep moving. It’s possible but it’s definitely more difficult
Meanwhile I pull in $10k from passive income off IG. It’s never always or never. It’s the person and their ability and skill set and COMMUNITY. If you guys focused on community you wouldn’t need stupid algorithm hacks. Build a community. Be an actual expert. Provide tons of value for free. Then build in passive income streams.
Depends on your content. I have a few pages a couple are art only which for those - instagram is currently the best place to share and interact with others
@@heyDominikmy experience is the reversed actually. Pre feb 2023 my monthly reach was at a steady 1.5-2.5m…nowadays it’s more like 200k. That change was basically overnight lol. I must be missing something big!
Thank you for taking the time to break things down. I really appreciate it. I saw someone comment that it was too wordy and I couldn’t disagree more. I know some folks don’t have the capacity to watch anything past 5 mins. I get it but if it doesn’t apply let it fly. Find someone who fits with your attention span.
Can you make a video about the removal of the recent hashtag search. Instagram shows only the top posts. When you search a hashtag you get only 20 pictures. Its crazy...
I thought I was crazy when that was the impression i got too, like something ain’t mathing out here. I feel slightly more confused than before I started
It sounds like we should be listing out keywords at the end of the text instead of hashtags since it's more about SEO and searching words and not a hash tagged phrase with no spaces between each word. Is that wrong to think about it or does making it a hashtag still help in search? I'm not interested in ranking, I'm interested in attracting people that will enjoy my content and/or hire me for work.
Nooo do not do this! You want to use keywords naturally in your text. Listing out keywords like hashtags is spammy (and also, you might as well use hashtags at that point). Hashtags aren’t dead. They’re just like tags used in UA-cam and blog SEO
Nice suggestion! I will try it. I also have a question: could you speak about adding a location to a post? And by location, I mean anything from your actual location (if it's seen/not in the picture) and quirky locations that would be relevant to the picture but not an actual place (like sayings), or if it's worth adding a popular place, but not your location (like Los Angeles, etc.). There's a lot of questions to uncover here.
Not now its like you said there are milestones. For me I saw 80% more growth after reaching 1000 followers. It took months but then one of my videos blew up past so many million and I only used four hashtags describing it as the algorithm already knew me.
Hi Dominik, I thank you for your research and for posting consistently useful info for us. I have a small suggestion for your future video production. In this one, the blue light that is over your right shoulder is really distracting, especially in a darker room where you film. I suggest removing that for future videos, and maybe being more aware of the light sources that are behind you. Thanks for considering this 👍

Everyone is posting multiple times a day, so your post will get buried. You have to grind like theres no tomorrow to even get slightly noticed. They focus on pushing already stablished content creators with a large following. Then theres is the problem of getting shadowbanned with no explanation or fix to this issue. Hell, they wont even warn you or tell you what youve done to sort it out. No point promotlng on insta since SEO doesnt even work in the first place. Insta isn't what it used to be and you'll be better off promoting on other platforms.
I have a theory that they changed and instead of telling people how to use the after the change, the advice has been to stop using them. Reason being that they became a spam tool and the change was to combat that, so if everyone knew the new way of doing things the problem would happen all over again
I have one question! I'm an editor, I do reels on quotes with songs.., My question is, should I use Instagram trending songs in my reels or should I use original audio?
the only part of video which i found useful was when u were about to tell high volumn hashtags but like other content creators out there ur content has nothing to offer us
That spotlight/glaring headlight behind you was unbelievably annoying. Especially when watching in the middle of the night from bed in a darkened room. Definitely messed with my circadian rhythm.

I hate the fact that I can't see the most recent post with that hashtag
So to sum this up: Use hashtags that are actual search terms rather than random phrases
Social media loves to give us freaking anxiety 😅
Everytime I’ve chosen topics for my reels they have performed the worst. I’ve stopped using that topic option
Probably cause they are not really fitting
Of all of the videos I've watched about this subject, you broke it down and explained it perfectly. Thank you
Instagram is not like it was before 2020, it's useless growing there rather you can focus more on other platforms like UA-cam and TikTok
kind of true, but since the beginning of 2023 Instagram's been killing it tbh

What good is SEO on Instagram when the platform isn’t very helpful when you use the search feature.
your info is SO HELPFUL Dominik. Thank you! You cut straight to the point and actually research unlike everyone else
I'm an artist and I only use art hangtag but since a month I no longer get any likes only from my actual followers .. Any suggestions ?
Focus on reals and stories instead of posts for a while😉

That’s a really long video to just explain that before it was sort of about # spray, and now it’s better to focus on targeted # specific to the post
Hate that hashtag dedicated pages are no longer available. It just goes to a search page.
Can you make a video about the removal of the recent hashtag search. Instagram shows only the top posts. When you search a hashtag you get only 20 pictures. Its crazy...
So we will still have to use hashtags to give relevance but it doesnt matter as a hashtag itself. 😂

Soon as you add location you get mad spam

Dude u talk way too much without saying anything profound. Shorten ur clips and say whats really important.

The hashtag ladder is actually valid. In the SEO world, it’s called keyword clustering.
Anyone who tells me they aren’t a guru has my trust

Thank you for backing up your info with illustrations.Credible!
why do they always change things
Great video man.
Thanks a lot, man! 🤘
So difficult to grow Instagram
thank you for the video - great content but that blue light behind you gahhhhh turn it off haha
I was waiting for this video brother 👀
I know. I have bugged your brain
CAN YOU GET TO THE POINT QUICKLY BRO DAMN
Somebody change the CEO please 🥺
I love everything about this UA-cam channel but bro this literally no reach on UA-cam compared to 3 months ago
Bro next time just remove the light behind you its so enoying
Thank 😂so much 😮
I have one question!
I'm an editor, I do reels on quotes with songs.., My question is, should I use Instagram trending songs in my reels or should I use original audio?
Do a 50:50 split and see the results after a few weeks
Great video lots of information in here 🤘🏼
Appreciate it!!
Hey Dominic , does your posting time still matter? How do you know when the best time to post for your account is.
yes, but not as much as it used to!
That’s not a knife!
Can someone pls tell me what is the right resolution for Instagram , I just can’t figure it
Out
Like the recent post, but they just deleted that option. Figure out a way to find the content that was just posted and like them.
Life without hashtags is a clean life :D
😆 I‘m not saying they’re totally irrelevant tho!
Does this work on reels too?
the only part of video which i found useful was when u were about to tell high volumn hashtags but like other content creators out there ur content has nothing to offer us
Crazy content very entertaining
Great video ❤️
Thank you! Glad you liked it!!
That light behind you distracts.
I also think the YT algorithm knows that the light distracts viewer and may punish your reach.
So what do you do with topics when nothing matches your content?
Leave them out and just use hashtags!
great! love this video
I fucking love this guy so much !! ;DD
To get viral, I should set my page private or public!??
Private bro
Can you please tell me the topics for motivation nieche?
Bro maybe you need to stop moving so much and blubbering while talking
How to see recent hashtag posts on Instagram?!
You cant. They removed it. Sadly.
so much work for a fill likes 😫
wordy...be more clean with key notes only!
What happen to your body are you unwell
That spotlight/glaring headlight behind you was unbelievably annoying. Especially when watching in the middle of the night from bed in a darkened room. Definitely messed with my circadian rhythm.
U messed with ur own circadian rhythm by watching a video when u should b sleeping. 🤦
you haven't say anything....
thank goodness lol gets kinda repetitive when posting two 3 times a day @autobyswizz
