Just look at the common things on your explore page and copy the format/quality. I still haven't done it because I hate how it would look on my feed but It has to be done. Ive seen so many average accounts who have that one viral post that looks like a typical explore page post for that niche.
 
Also, I would take everything said there with several grains of salt. Public articles like this are always focused on creating the vibe of (everything is perfectly est up for everyone to have a equal chance, work hard and you will make it!) Its bullshit. IG does some things that are kept under the rug to manage the algo. It isn't all as simple and clean as they make it sound.

For example, they say IG doesn't do anything and that the only way to improve is to post great content. What a disgustingly politically correct statement. Yes great content is king but there are many other factors at play. IF that was true, why does IG only let my story reach the hashtag story once per hashtag? Why do all my videos get
way more impressions from the explore page than photos? Why do I have way more organic reach at each +10k followers? They didn't even mention how IG looks at how fast people like your posts... They know what the fuck they are doing.

Posts like "Tag a friend if blablahblah" or "pick one" etc... Stuff that is designed to get people to comment or tag.

#ShitWhitehatsSay Look at the rest of their site. These guys bill themselves as marketers. Some of the people on this forum have underpaid VA's that know more about Instagram than these guys.

Yeah those engagement baits work really well for me. They can double engagement, but viral posts still work better.
