Nothing much when it comes to an update. I reached a milestone with the most likes on a post I've seen, even with reduced posting and reused content. It seems that the engagement stats are getting better and better as time goes on. The only real change is the daily swapping out the captions...
Rough beginning to the month but I've managed to surpass 1900 followers. I've hit 400 views at one point but views dropped for a few days (200-350) because I've been reposting the same 2-3 videos.
The saves have climbed to an average of 4 saves/post. I've switched up the post captions here and...
Starting to see the average views on videos rise to 300. so there's another bit of a hurdle to jump over. Not at 1900 yet, but will be there shortly. Starting to consistently get comments on my posts now. about 1 or 2 whenever I use a comment based CTA.

Scratching 400 it seems. A set of video series has been essential for keeping the posts fresh and engaging.
Likes are hovering around 20 per post.
Posts are averaging about 2 saves each.
The retention curve seems to be tightening up near the beginning due to the text on-screen.
I'm steadily...
Experimenting with my workflow. Starting to make more use of drafts and am focusing on crafting better descriptions.
Cracked 300 views on another video again. Also, finally reached 1800 followers. I recently noticed that I'm gaining more followers on a day-to-day basis. I'm not sure if this is...
Cracked 300 views on a few new videos. The likes seem to be accelerating. I'm looking forward to see where the account goes.

Engaging description, with a clear call to action.
Retention rate is still at around 50%, but I'm...
More likes more comments. I would say that the likes are multiplying...and the watchtime is getting better on the content. I'm at around 50% retention in the 3 secs of the video and still trapped in the 200 view prison. I've got a few videos flirting with 300 but for whatever reason won't cross...
I'm still trying to figure everything out. It doesn't seem like my content is being pushed out at all.
My likes and comments are increasing by a factor of 2 or 3, but I'm still in that 200 view prison.
The account is slowly growing. I'm talking maybe 5 followers per day.
I want to post...
Nothing really new.
Followers are slow to come

The next phase is to understand the best posting times.
at around 5 followers/day. posting 3-4 times during the peak windows maximizing watchtime.
I noticed that my shorter videos have a better retention. I have content that's at about 35% retention but I'm shooting for 70% retention for the first 3 seconds. r
Still at around 200 views per video...
only one for now. average joe journey. thank you for the reply.
The focus of this journey is on growth and not monetization.
I will keep your question in mind when it comes to future updates. You can monetize a small niche, though. Just target the right audience and play the game properly...
Video replies, if possible, are a great way to increase views and engagement. They extend the life of a video and create another CTA opportunity. 3 original posts today. Still in the 200 view range. Main issue seems to be the retention rate.
Plan on posting 3 highly engaging viral style posts...
Took more steps to improve content quality. added auto captions and a trending sound to a post. will see how it does. also identified some niche specific hashtags that I'm going to make use of from now on.
Still experimenting with the content format.
Amazing engagement with a niche-based information carousel.
I'm reposting some of my older videos and keep hitting that 200 view threshold. The exposure is great, but I definitely will be taking more steps to improve the quality of content.
getting a few followers per day. posting 4 times per day. still at around 200 views per post. been throwing new video concepts out and will keep experimenting with the content.
