I am not using videos with someone speaking. However, I am planning to do use such content on another account. Actually, my reels contain only music. With FFMpeg, before posting the clip, I implement some edits concerning audio. If you want, I can share with you the full command privately. I would like you to take a look at it. Anyway, if you think that it’s much better relying on other softwares, such as Audacity, I will follow your lead. Sometimes, I keep the original audio, as well as using the suggested audio by Instagram at the begin. It also offers me the possibility to mute the sound, but I am unable to change it before two steps of sharing process. I had enabled, in the past, the cross posting option (“Reccomend reels on Facebook”). However, I got only a few views without “Like” and comments. I wasn’t satisfied with such result. Now, it is still disabled, but, if necessary, I could enable it. Where can I find the option “Sharing and Reuse”? Are you talking about allowing “Remix” feature or “Download reels” option? The third option, of course, is enabled. Usually, I prefer focusing to worldwide audience. I rely on your help and look forward to hear from you soon.
Using Audacity is recommended if someone is speaking in your videos. If you’re currently only using music, try muting the original audio and replacing it with a trending Instagram track to give your content a fresh boost. If you want to mute the video before uploading it to Instagram, try searching on Google for “remove audio from video.”
It’s common to get fewer interactions when reels are crossposted to Facebook, as engagement patterns can vary by platform. However, if you’re looking to reach a broader audience, enabling crossposting could still be beneficial, even if the results are gradual.
Since you’re focusing on a global audience, try experimenting with different posting times that align with peak activity in the countries providing the highest views overall.
It seems Instagram may have recently updated some terms/features. "Sharing and Reuse" should be the equivalent of "Sharing and Remixes." To make sure it’s fully enabled, check that all options in this setting are activated.
Aside from trying to change the audio background in the videos you post, I don’t see any other options that might help. Another possibility is that the IP you're using to post might be affecting your results. Also, in case you're posting the videos from a PC, it's better to do it from a smartphone.
Good luck!
