🔟 Steps to Beat the Instagram Algorithm (and Feed the Beast)

🔟 Steps to Beat the Instagram Algorithm (and Feed the Beast)
1. Optimize Your Bio for Conversion
Your bio is your first impression. Make it count.

Example:
Instead of: “Just a foodie sharing meals”
Try: “🍴 Easy Recipes | 🧠 AI-Powered Meal Plans | 🎁 Free Cookbook Below ↓”

Prompt:
→ What’s the one action you want people to take after visiting your profile?
→ Can your bio answer “Who are you? What do I get? Where do I click?”

1. Master the Mix: Reels + Stories + Carousels The algorithm favors creators who use all tools. Each content type feeds a different behavior:

Reels = Discovery

Stories = Daily touchpoints

Carousels = Shares, saves, longer engagement

Example Strategy:
Use a 3-part system:

Reel = Teaser or transformation

Story = Behind-the-scenes or poll

Carousel = Tutorial or breakdown

Prompt:
→ What message can you break into these 3 formats to stretch visibility over 2–3 days?

1. Post When Your Audience Is Most Active It’s not just what you post — it’s when. Early likes and comments are key.

Example:
Use IG Insights or free tools like Later.com to find your golden hour.

Prompt:
→ Look at your last 10 posts — which posting times got the fastest engagement?

1. Use Engagement Velocity to Your Advantage Posts that get quick interaction get pushed to more people.

Example Strategy:

DM your close followers with “I just posted, let me know what you think”

Or use Story stickers to tease an upcoming post before it drops

Prompt:
→ How can you create a “warm-up” before your next post to boost initial attention?

1. Leverage CTA Comments Instagram wants interaction. Give people a reason to respond.

Example CTAs:

“What’s your go-to ingredient when you’re low on time?”

“Drop a 🍜 if you’ve ever ruined a meal and recovered”

Prompt:
→ What one-question comment could spark a real answer from your audience today?

1. Write Save-Worthy Captions Saves signal long-term value to the algorithm.

Example:
Post: “3 Surprising Ways to Use Cinnamon (That Have Nothing to Do with Baking)”
Caption: “1. Add to coffee grounds before brewing... 2. Mix with honey for a sore throat remedy… 3. Simmer with citrus peels to freshen air.”

Prompt:
→ Could someone use this tip later? Would they want to save it?

1. Feed the Beast Daily Even if it's small — a Story, a poll, or a reply to comments. Consistency builds momentum.

Example Strategy:
Monday: Reel
Tuesday: Poll + DM follow-up
Wednesday: Carousel
Thursday: Live tip
Friday: Freebie or behind-the-scenes
Saturday: Rest or reshare
Sunday: Story Q&A

Prompt:
→ What’s one action you can repeat daily that doesn't drain you but keeps you visible?

1. Use Hashtags Like a Pro Avoid random ones. Use community-driven tags where your niche hangs out.

Example:
Instead of #food or #fitness, try #mealprepideas or #busymomcooks

Prompt:
→ Who are you trying to reach? What would they search for?

1. Create Story Polls & Stickers Instagram prioritizes interactivity. Every sticker tap counts.

Example Strategy:
Use this sequence:

Poll: “Do you cook on Sundays?”

Slider: “How confident are you in the kitchen?”

Quiz: “Which spice helps reduce sugar cravings?”

Prompt:
→ What’s one fun or useful question you could ask today to encourage a quick response?

1. Blend AI + Public Domain for Smart, Evergreen Content This is your edge. Create something unique, fast, and valuable.

Example:
Take a vintage cookbook from the public domain, use AI to modernize it, and brand it as your own content gift. You’re now the authority.

Prompt:
→ What timeless niche content could you remix into something modern, branded, and shareable?
