Hey guys it's been a month since I started uploading reels on insta and gradually my viewership declined and I'm not getting views though I was getting reach at the starting.
Is there anything to focus on while uploading reels to gain reach.
Like the algorithm is playing with me or I'm uploading in niche where competition is too much??
Kindly suggest me.

that’s a decent amount. Do you repurpose other people’s content or use AI for your reels?

I find calling out my niche when setting up a new channel really helps in the first 60 days or so. “Gardeners have you …..”

Questions are also a really good way of getting engagement. “Gardners what’s wrong with this tomacco plant”
 
don’t panic
it’s pretty normal for reach to fluctuate
if you keep posting you will see it improves

I would advise you to be consistent and not give up. You will eventually get a high number of views.
 
Check your retention watch time and shares Instagram usually reduces reach when viewers do not engage strongly with the content
 
-How many reels have you posted till now?
-How many reels you post per day? What is the Frequency? What time you post it on?
-What is your niche?

I have posted about 40 reels.
Per day I would post 1 or 2 reels a day and my niche is motivation page I would post it mostly in daytime.

40 reels a day are too much.. You should post like 3 or 4 max.... I hope you get reach soon
 
Check which reels perfomed well for you then try to replicate what worked instead of trying 10 new different things
 
Yeah, this happens a lot I would focus less on “beating the algorithm” and more on the first 2–3 seconds, watch time, and whether people share/save the Reel. Try a few different formats within your niche too. Sometimes the algorithm isn’t angry at you, it’s just being dramatic
 
i think you have to try posting consistently but focus more on watch time or retentions and impressions than just views also test different hooks and posting times

Meta is applying this trick so that you promote your contents and they get money. Ai is doing this constanly. Try to make quality content and keep posting constantly. Increase your engaement. Don't panic! I hope you will get more views as well as followers soon.
 
Are you reels actually worth watching ?

Have you tried to do daily some random actions including follows to gather a small follower base ?
 
I’ve seen this happen with accounts we’ve managed, and I wouldn’t assume the algorithm is the problem right away. We usually focus on the first 2–3 seconds, watch time, shares, and saves rather than just views. Try testing different hooks and Reel formats while staying within the same niche, instead of changing your niche too quickly. Competition matters, but strong content with good retention can still break through.
