Why my reels not going viral

[besard_thaci]

Hello to everyone!
I manage an instagram page. I started the site by buying 10k followers. Now before I buy followers I throw the reels and they go viral, but after buying the followers the reels are not going viral, do you think it can be fixed over time, or if I make sponsorships with money on instagram they will to show me my posts more to people? Please as I want to invest a lot of money on my site to grow it

Any answers?

I'm not sure i understand the question very well, but you should know that fake followers will destroy your reach and ER.

I did a quick chart to explain how does the Instagram algorithm work,

Things are a lot more complex but this is how it works in simpler terms.

Now, when you got inactive fake followers, that messed up your FIRST BASIC cycle.
Since the first 20%-30% of followers aren't liking or engaging with your pictures, that makes Instagram feel
that the content isn't good enough and it doesn't push it forward.​

What I mean is does Instagram suspend me from having an increase in my page, since I have bought followers. Or is it more important not to buy more followers, and try to bring in more real followers and my site will be revived and my posts will start going viral? Can you tell me something please, thank you for the answer.

This is next level!

that’s the best explanation I’ve seen

at the beginning the reels had a lot of interaction now like the shorts on youtube there is too much competition

Yes, those followers are inactive and aren't engaging with your reels so it does impact your account negatively.
If you could do something to make those followers watch and like your reels, that would help a lot.

In my opinion, your account has been shadow banned-restricted visibility to the people/followers, which is why your reels are not going as successful as before.

Shadow-ban usually lasts a couple of weeks. So, learn from this.

If you want to invest money in your account, there are other ways: like paid ads and asking IG Influencers who have followers in millions to promote your account and in return, you could pay them.

I mean my account will be restored as before after some time, if I continue to follow the rules and post regularly. No problem I bought followers?

thank you for the share!
I've realized that some of my reels get a lot of non-followers AND my followers on the first seconds/minutes of my upload. And many others get sent ONLY to my followers (which is bad) on the first few minutes of my video being uploaded. Do you know anything about this of why? Also, curious to know what happens if you only publish it to REELS but not to your grid/your followers... Sometimes I get 0 views and sometimes thousands. Any idea?

This is the best explanation you have really taken the time to break things down and explain them in a way that is easy to understand

really fascinating idea to break it down like this. Unfortunately this is a real problem.

You bought fake followers. Fake followers are there only to grow your numbers. They don`t engage, they don`t help you with anything. Actually, they mess up your engagement rate and you got to situations like this. You need to clean up the account, unfollow the fake followers and start following real people, that like and comment.

its not related with buying followers or not. Instagram gives a chance to shine to accounts starting to post reels. Probably in the beginning instagram put your videos to the explore pages but after a while it took it back. Its not because you bought followers

doesn't buying followers affect engagement?

And also if you're reposting some reels, then you should also see this thread:

Bots are not real followers all are fake and fake engagement I have also experienced, my account has one day decreasing all likes and views so don't buy followers the organic way is long term but it is constant and real , it takes time for growing

Fake followers will destroy engagement so I don't know if it's profitable to keep investing in that account at all.
