Ranking hashtags on instagram?

cacats · Sep 15, 2018

Hey guys!!

As everyone knows here, in order to rank a post in a hashtag, you need some likes instantly from your followers. If those followers like it and comment it (and share, save the post, etc.), your reach will be higher, as the post will be shown to other followers. If everything goes right, you will rank on a hashtag and appear on the feed of other people, etc.

But how to make it in a black hat way? I mean, I know that you have to post quality content and blablabla, but if you purchase some likes, will that help your post to improve it's ranking?

Thanks in advance!

Anyone has tested It?

I think the best way you can do this for a blackhat method would be indeed to buy likes.
I'm not really sure what is ranked higher, likes or comments but I personally think that comments would be more effective.

You can also use DM groups, it's essentially the same thing but a trade for a like and comment compared to buying them, this has proven to be pretty effective for instagram and getting popularity.
If you've got a number of instagram accounts all in the same niche you can also manually comment and like your own accounts posts as soon as they're posted to help with the rankings.

Lately Instagram’s algorithm seems to be different.
I found it to be this way:

personA likes motorcycles
personB likes jewelry

You post a photo on your travel page with a necklace and the hashtag #traveling, if 100x person A likes the photo, when person B enters the “top” section of #traveling they wouldn’t see your photo, only people from the personA group or related to it would see it.

I’m bad at explaining thins but I guess you get it.

Yeah, I think the same. But the only issue I see is, that for instagram, It would be weird if suddenly, in a timespan of 20 minutes, 300 users Who don't follow and have never engaged with your account, likes your post. In fact, instagrIn has not show them your post, so my fear IS that It Will trigger its algorithm

On the other hand, I tested It myself, and with 500 likes (5 likes per minute), my reach went from 5000 impressions to 18.000.

It's really weird haha

Well I'm not sure if Instagram can 100% identify how a post will go viral so I think you'll be fine, as long as you don't go from 0 likes to 10,000 in the space of 5 minutes, but infact ramp it up by going from a few to slowly climing it up over the 30 minutes to say a 1,000 then the instagram algorithm will do the rest. It's something you'll have to play around with.
