Hour of the day
1."When I started using TikTok, I posted at random times, like 2 AM, but it didn’t work. So, I tried posting at 6 PM to see what would happen. Next thing I knew, I got 500k views. I applied the same concept to Instagram, and my first reel went viral with 500k views. You need to experiment with different times to see what works best for you. I tried a new time for fun and got 8k views, but when I went back to my usual time, it hit 2 million views. Timing is 100% key on Instagram."
2."I can confirm this — use these hashtags in this order: #fyp first, then #explore second to last, and #explorerpage last. The rest of the hashtags should be related to your video. For example, if it's a boy crying because of his mom, the hashtags should highlight the key points, like #cry, #boy, #mom."
3."Instagram isn't like YouTube Shorts — you can use any audio you want."
4."As for YouTube Shorts, I'm still figuring it out, and my results are at the bottom. I’m still learning the algorithm, haha."
