- A lot of us have some wild ideas,about how Instagram
works and it's probably,because we're confused
why the app's arranged,in certain ways.,Like why is one person in my
feed first versus someone else?,Or, more crucially, why is my crush always,at the top of my story viewers?,Is it because they're stalking my page?,Here's what I know.,Instagram has one billion
users, including myself,,and the app hasn't been super forthcoming,about how its algorithm works.,The company treats it like
it's the Coca-Cola recipe,or something, even a
New York Times article,mentioned the stalker idea.,So how does Instagram
rank people in stories,and in the app in general?,Does it actually show me the
people who stalk me the most?,We went to Instagram to find out.,(medium-paced jazz music),That's Julian Gutman, product lead,for Instagram home, which includes,Instagram stories and the feed.,First things first, let's
address the stalker myth.,- So the answer is,
the people that show up,on that list are not the
people that stalk you the most.,It's actually based on your activity,and people that you're closest to.,- All right, you heard that.,Instagram isn't going to show you,who's stalking you the most.,Instead, it's the people
you're interacting with.,So if you go to your crush's page,or even your frenemy's page all the time,,it's likely they're going to show up,at the top of your story viewers.,- I think there are often
these kind of situations,where there are a lot
of confounding factors.,But you can kind of create
a narrative around it,,maybe based on what you wanna think,or sort of what's interesting to you.,- It's totally possible that
I'm projecting a narrative,onto my story viewers because,I'm actually the one stalking them.,Although I have to say I don't
think I'm creeping that much,,so what else am I doing in the app,that makes Instagram think
I care about these people?,- Do you visit their profile?,Do you like their feed posts?,Do you comment on their feed posts?,Do you view their stories?,- But Julian wouldn't get specific,about how certain interactions
are weighted in the app.,Like whether a like is less significant,than a DM or a comment.,Or what happens if a DM is
opened but not responded to?,How does that affect the algorithm?,Even what you do outside the
app can affect your feed.,Like who you're connected
to on Instagram's,parent company, Facebook.,Even still, I sometimes have random people,in my story viewers
list that I barely know.,- Do you check the list multiple times?,If you check the list multiple times,it tries to show you a new set of people.,So it's trying to give you new information,every time you check the list.,- So if you're like me,
and you check your story,multiple times after you first post it,,you're probably going to see new people,at the top of your
viewers because Instagram,always wants you to have a new experience,when you open the app.,This whole strategy around showing,you relevant, interesting
content led the company,to change its feed from
chronological to algorithmic.,When this happened in 2016, Instagram said,people were missing 70%
of posts in their feed,,so it wanted to optimize
the 30% they did see.,Facebook's feed works the same way.,The algorithm's everywhere.,When that switch happened two years ago,,it was super controversial,
but I actually like it.,The feed works as it's
supposed to most of the time,,my best friend's posts
populate at the top of my feed,,although because Instagram always wants,to show me new content,
it sometimes refreshes,too quickly and I don't
have a chance to scroll.,Okay, so I'm starting to understand,why I see certain people in
certain places on the app,,even though Julian wouldn't
get super granular.,He's guarding that algorithm.,Ultimately, it comes down to self-control.,Everything we do on the
app molds the algorithm.,So maybe I shouldn't look at,my random Tinder date's profile.,I'd rather have my best
friends at the top of my feed.,Resist the boy click.,If I were to guess why this myth exists,,it's probably because deep down,,we know that who we look
at and stalk on Instagram,says a lot about our
priorities and interests.,I don't want to admit that
I look at my ex's profile,,but Instagram knows all our secrets.,Our interactions don't lie.,I just hope the app never actually exposes,my stalking habits.,Hey, thanks for watching.,If you haven't subscribed to The Verge yet,you should do that, and then you should,go check out our sister site, Eater.,They publish a series called
the Kitchen Gadget Test Show,,which involves testing
gadgets in the kitchen.,What could be better?

How to Find Your STALKERS on Instagram
How to Find Your STALKERS on Instagram
do you want to know how to identify your,stalkers on instagram without using any,third-party service,if that's the case you are in the right,spot because in this video i will go,over,everything you guys need to know about,finding your stalkers on instagram,before we get into that though my name,is carter and in this channel i make,videos about all things,instagram theme pages growth social,media all,things like that so if this type of,content interests you,please be sure to subscribe to my,channel and if you don't subscribe,then uh the uh ever givens going to,lose control and absolutely demolish,your house,i'm kidding i'm kidding for legal,purposes i'm kidding but uh seriously,subscribe to the channel,all right let's hop into today's video,so as you may or may not already know,the best way to identify your stalkers,on instagram,is by looking at who's viewed your,instagram stories,i want to take a moment to go over the,background of how this process works so,you guys can better understand,what that list actually means you see,instagram is focused on keeping your,attention on their platform it's how,they make their money,to do that they have a sort of ranking,system which ranks your interaction with,different people's content,in order to see which accounts you like,the most now this is nothing special,although it is very pertinent to your,instagram profile,it dictates who shows up at the top of,your feed which stories will appear,first,and the kind of content that you'll see,on the explore page however this is,nothing too special because it ranks,your interest with other accounts other,accounts aren't going to be able to see,this ranking because it is basically,only on your end that it's going to,matter,now with that understood there is one,exception to what i just said,and that is the views list on instagram,stories,you see normally when you look at the,likes of your posts or your feed it's,you're going to be seeing,your ranking system or at least your,relation to those accounts,however when you look at the views on,your instagram story that is,those accounts relation to you this is,why instagram stories are such a great,diagnostic tool for seeing who is,viewing your profile,it's going to rank the accounts relative,to one another,to see which ones interact with you the,most and is going to put those at the,top of the list,this way when you see the top of your,list and it has somebody that you don't,really recognize,it's a good chance that person is more,interested in you than you may have,thought,okay maybe i should qualify what i just,said if you see someone towards the top,of your views list on your story and you,don't recognize them,don't immediately assume that they're,just some creepy stalker looking at your,profile,there are so many different confounding,variables that play into the order of,this list,for starters it depends on how many,accounts those people are interacting,with,like let me paint you all a picture,let's say that there are two accounts,one account only follows two people and,spends equal amount of time,under each account now let's say we have,another account that follows,ten thousand accounts but spends twenty,percent of its time,looking at one profile in the order of,the views list,the person who spends fifty 50 of the,time even though they only follow two,accounts,is going to show up higher than the,person who spends 20 of the time,but they follow 10 000 accounts as you,can see it's not an accurate picture of,what's going on,because the person who's following 10,000 accounts that spends 20,of their time under your profile is,probably more likely a stalker than the,person who only follows two accounts and,spends half the time on your profile,another thing important to consider as,well is that instagram's algorithm,might influence the profiles that you,look at take for example that you are,clicking through stories and you spent a,long time on someone's story,unexpectedly for no particular reason,instagram's algorithm is going to notice,this and put their story towards the,front of your stories list,then let's say you click on that story,again by chance because it was promoted,towards the top of the stories that you,can see,instagram is going to say wow you really,like this person when in reality you may,or may not even know this person,instagram's algorithm that way is sort,of artificially influencing the accounts,that you look at the most,so why does this matter well let's take,a look at that in the reverse context,now that random person who you don't,really care about their content nor you,really know,you're going to show up at the top of,their list under the viewers on their,story,making you look like a stalker when,reality it's just instagram algorithm,playing with who shows up first on the,list,and finally i want to spend the last few,minutes talking about some common sense,when trying to figure out who your,stalkers are on instagram,using the instagram story list is not an,end-all

Instagram stories hacks tips and tricks | NEW FEATURES| How to increase engagement Instagram stories
Instagram stories hacks tips and tricks | NEW FEATURES| How to increase engagement Instagram stories
hi everyone welcome back to my channel,my name is jade i'm here to help you,grow your online presence multiply your,streams of income and create profitable,businesses okay so today's video is a,really fun one it's all about instagram,stories i haven't done a video like this,before which is weird i feel like i was,kind of at the point where i'd covered,most things but apparently not,apparently there's more to cover so,specifically i'm gonna be talking about,instagram story hacks and tricks that,you can be doing on your stories which,is gonna allow you to get more views the,reason why i want to talk about this,today is because i mentioned in this,video when i was talking about my social,media strategy for 2022. i mentioned,that i was going to be putting a lot,more effort into my instagram stories,i'm a firm believer that if you're going,to show up on your stories you want to,show up properly you want to be sharing,good content i don't believe in just,being on your stories every day for the,sake of it so i wanted to make sure that,i was showing up on my stories on a,regular basis and sharing good content,and i incorporated a lot of these,tactics into my new stories strategy and,the results have been great and i've,been getting so many more views and so,much interaction so without further ado,let's just get straight to it okay so,the first hack that i want to tell you,about is basically a thing that you can,do which allows you to instantly give,your stories a boost and it basically,guarantees that your stories are going,to be seen by more people now you've,probably heard this hack before but,potentially not in the way that i'm,going to describe it so i'm just going,to say it right just come out with it so,the hack is that you let your stories,expire so that you've got no stories,live on your profile anymore and then,your first story back uses one of,instagram's interactive stickers so when,i say the interactive stickers i'm,talking about the polls the question box,that kind of stuff anything which,requires your audience to interact or,provide your audience with the ability,to interact with your story now the key,thing about this tactic that a lot of,people don't mention is that it actually,matters which interactive feature you're,using right so you don't want to use the,q a box or any interactive sticker that,requires your audience to do a lot of,stuff in order to take part in it so the,q a box requires your audience to type,out a message and that's quite a big ask,now i'm not saying this in general but,when you compare it to some of the other,interactive stickers the question box,actually requires your audience to do,quite a lot right alternatively there,are other stickers like the poll feature,or like you know that sliding love heart,face feature those two technically have,the lowest barrier to entry right so,that just basically means that when you,use those two stickers on your story,it's very easy for your viewers to,interact with them very quickly it,doesn't require them to type out a,message it doesn't even require that,much thought it's very easy for them to,engage which means you're gonna get more,engagement from them because you're,using stickers which are easy for your,audience to kind of interact with it,means that you want to get more people,interacting with your stories and the,more people who interact with your first,story back the higher your story will,rank on instagram's algorithm the reason,why is because instagram's algorithm is,constantly looking for signals to figure,out whether or not your story is really,high quality and engaging the more,signals you can send it and buy signals,i mean people interacting with your poll,or using that slide feature the more of,those signals you can send instagram's,algorithm the more likely it is for the,algorithm to recognize how great your,story content is and to show it to more,people so that's the first tactic and it,is a good one it works for me every,single time okay so the next hack,involves you being a bit tactical with,when you upload your story content so if,you know that you're going to post on,your feed today so you know you're going,to upload a photo or a real or something,like that that's going to go on your,feed what you want to do is make sure,that you've uploaded your story content,before you've shared your feed posts the,reason why and you have probably been,victim to this as well but a common,thing for people to do when they're,scrolling through their home feed is to,also look at someone's story so if,they're scrolling through their home,feed and they see a post from you if,you've already got a story live so you,know like your profile photo will have,that ring around it it's actually quite,common for people to click and watch,your story as a result of seeing your,feed post on their home feed so that's,one reason why it works another reason,why it works is it gives you the,opportunity for you to tell people or,encourage people to watch your

Try THIS to increase your Instagram Story Views
Try THIS to increase your Instagram Story Views
if you're struggling to get the views,that you want on your instagram stories,then these three easy content ideas,might just be the solution it's not,about hacks or beating the algorithm,it's just about finding strategic and,intentional ways that you can create,content that people actually want to,engage with and i think that these three,ideas that i'm about to share are going,to be a really helpful starting point,for you so let's just dive right in,shall we okay so one of the most common,things that absolutely kills story,engagement is unfortunately when you,share your feed content directly to your,story you know the look just like a,carousel slide in the middle of a,vertical story frame now obviously this,sucks because as creators we want to be,able to get more reach for our feed,content by sharing it to our stories it,can be a good way to kind of boost the,initial eyes on your post and maybe get,some more engagement help get your feed,content more distribution but that only,works if your story views don't totally,plummet and people are watching your,stories and then you know going to look,at your feed posts right so i've found a,much better way to share your feed,content to your story in a way that's a,lot more organic engaging it feels like,a story so people aren't as likely to,just exit out or tap on past so let's,just pop over to my profile and let's,say that i want to share this post that,i made about how to repurpose your,youtube blog and podcast content for,instagram so obviously the normal way,would just be to tap that little share,button and then you know post it on my,story,like this but like i was saying that's,kind of boring so what we're gonna do,instead is i'm gonna discard this and,i'm gonna take a screenshot,of the post and i'm just gonna go ahead,and crop it so you can just see kind of,my username and the first slide of the,post we'll tap done,now what i'm going to do is i'm going to,go over and create a story so i'm going,to take a selfie and i'm just going to,point to an area of the screen where i'm,going to end up putting my post,okay so now i can tap on the sticker,tray i can go ahead and select a picture,sticker from my camera roll and i'm,going to use the one that i just took,right and then basically all i'm going,to do,is i'm going to add some text telling,people to go ahead and check out the,post,at this point you want to give a bit of,a preview of the value that people can,expect so that they're more likely to,actually tap through and go browse the,post,and then finally because this is kind of,an unconventional way of sharing story,content you want to add some kind of,prompt like tap here so that people know,that they can actually interact with the,sticker okay once you've got your design,complete you're going to tap those three,dots and hit save okay so now is the,part where we actually make it,interactive so it functions we're going,to go out of stories we're going to go,back to that post and tap share like you,normally would now you're going to,position this in the top corner in the,general area where,you put the sticker visually on your,last story that you just made then we're,going to tap the sticker tray again open,up camera roll and we're going to import,that vertical image as a sticker,then you just need to size it up,so that,it is the full size and finally you can,go ahead and,share it to your story i've done this a,number of times and i've shared them to,my ig updates highlight if you want to,check it out on my profile but basically,you can see then when you tap the little,preview of the post the little see post,pop-up comes up you can tap on that and,of course it takes you over to the post,here's just another quick example tap,there tap see post this is what your,followers can do to actually find their,way to your feed and scroll through that,feed content that you're sharing this is,a much more engaging way than just,straight up sharing the post to your,story because in general i find,especially for personal brands selfies,are going to be more engaging than just,a random post shared to the story and it,gives you a chance to kind of tee up,what the story is about give a little,bit of a preview to make people more,curious and want to tap through here's,the thing stories that are just an,endless slideshow of selfies,point of view shots like photos of what,you're seeing or even like videos of,what you're seeing or videos of you,talking to the camera they kind of get a,little bit boring a little bit samey so,what i want to recommend that you try is,actually shooting,some third-person b-roll of you,interacting in your environment in case,you're not a filmmaking nerd like me,then i'll tell you that b-roll basically,is just a term for any kind of clips in,a movie that don't tell like the a,narrative so you know when i'm talking,to you like this is an example of a-roll,but when i show you this clip over top,that would be an example of b-roll and i,use this principle of b-roll a

How To Fix Your Low Story Views (How To Use Instagram Stories Properly 2022)
How To Fix Your Low Story Views (How To Use Instagram Stories Properly 2022)
when it comes to instagram stories,everyone knows they should be showing up,but they stress or obsess over what to,be posting and it drives them crazy so,in this video what i'm going to do is,share what you should be posting on your,instagram stories how you can improve,your instagram story views and why you,should actually care about using stories,to grow your brand presence and business,using instagram so this video it's all,about instagram stories and upping your,game so let's get right into it so first,i think it's really important to,differentiate what stories are versus,what they aren't you obviously know what,the feature is but what does it mean for,your account so many people come to me,and they say how can i use my stories to,grow my page and that's not what stories,are there for your stories are only,going to be seen by people that are,already following you so if you're,looking to use it as a tool for growth,you're using stories completely wrong,and in fact only about 10,of your following will even see your,stories and they're your top 10,of people who are most interested in,your content in the eyes of instagram so,these are your core people seeing your,stories in most cases which means you,should create content through that lens,these people want more of you they like,you they love your content and you,should understand that and create,through that lens and stories can be a,super powerful wave to really deepen,that relationship and there's a,progression of people finding you on,instagram it usually starts with people,finding some of your content and then,becoming a profile visitor and if they,like what they see they become a,follower and if you nurture them through,tools like stories they can become a,super fan and then in turn become a,super customer buying your products and,services and stories are one of the most,powerful ways to bring people along that,journey and make them feel really,connected to you so remember these are,your core people and you're creating for,them so what should you actually be,posting on your stories for these people,it should really be more of you and the,reasons why people followed you in the,first place these are your core people,so if they fall out to see your life,share more of behind the scenes and the,deeper reasons or things that go into,creating the content they already love,for me i make a ton of content about,social media and online marketing,strategy and what people want to see is,a lot of that but also what goes into,creating the content that helps them out,in the first place that brought them to,me sharing that whole story and what i,call the hero's journey behind that is a,really personal way for people to,connect with you really quickly and,stories are probably the most human,element when it comes to instagram and,you want to use it like that like you're,talking to your friends so when you're,talking to your stories try to be human,don't be a robot talk like you would to,your best friend people are going to,connect with you so much more so when,you're on a story share what you're,doing what are you working on what's the,content you're working on share the,behind the scenes it can almost be like,a reality show or the deeper workings,behind the more finished product that,shows up through your content so i,wouldn't overthink your stories i would,get more out there of sharing more,different kinds of things and then,monitor how your audience responds to,the different things that you're sharing,one of the most powerful things about,stories is that any time that you push,one out there people can respond to that,story with the dm so if you post,something that really resonates with,people you're going to see that by,people's responses so get out there and,try sharing different things and see,what people want to see or the different,kinds of things they want to see some,examples could be your daily routine,behind the scenes what you're currently,thinking about your opinion on a,specific subject your diet the things,that you love your story what you're,eating your favorite shows hobbies etc,you can really go so broad here but,really focus on what they want to see,and it's more of you or the personality,behind the content that they love and we,want your followers engaging with your,stories to create a relationship and a,two-way conversation so you need to do,everything that you can to make that,conversation starter as easy as possible,so you want to be using all the tools,that instagram gives to you so while,you're sharing your day and what you're,doing also make it about the person,who's seeing this and make it easy for,them to get involved through polls,stickers sliders be creative with all,the tools instagram gives you to start a,conversation and keep it going over time,it's gonna do wonders for people feeling,appreciated when you give them that,opportunity to connect with you,one-on-one through your story plus a,massive thing to consider here is that,instagram a

How To Increase Instagram Story Views in 10 Minutes.
How To Increase Instagram Story Views in 10 Minutes.
i think it's fair to say that if you're,watching this video then you probably,aren't getting all of the instagram,stories views that you want to be,getting,now step one and the first thing we need,to think about is to manage expectation,i did a survey on my instagram and a,huge amount of people responded,and i found that the average person that,was you know doing quite well on their,stories was getting,about 10 that means that if they had a,thousand followers,they were getting 100 views on their,instagram stories some people were doing,a little better and getting around 20,and some people were getting about four,or five percent it really depends on the,type of content that they were putting,out but what we're going to do with the,tips in this video is we're going to,double our views we're going to,take the average 10 and we're going to,turn into 20 and i know we can do this,because i did it with my own,stories now the next thing we need to,think about is how many stories should,we be posting throughout the day,the short answer would be anything,between 5 and 15,posts per day that's something that i,feel personally is a good amount now it,really depends actually what you're,doing so for example if you are,traveling or if you are out on a,photography trip or you're,you know you're out doing something that,relates to your niche and you're in a,kind of high activity period,i think it's fine to post loads because,you're going to be actually doing lots,of,interesting things that your followers,will care about but if you are just,having a lazy day at home,maybe post a little bit less about that,because you know it may become,repetitive more quickly so that's,something to think about is,you know if i'm out on a photography,trip you know i'm going to post loads,if i'm just at home i probably won't you,know i might post about me having,breakfast or something but i'm not going,to be like i've got breakfast you know,brushing my teeth you know,getting my shoes on you know i'm,probably going to post less when there's,less going on so,consider that but you know short answer,5 to 15,posts a day something like that now,another important thing to do,and this is a little bit of a hack i,suppose is actually to space them out,throughout the day i think the average,person,is probably checking their instagram,every 30 minutes to,an hour so if you post every 30 minutes,to an hour,they're going that's going to put your,story right at the front every time they,open the app,if you post all 15 all in one go this,person,will tap on your stories watch them all,hopefully,and then you know then they won't see,you again because you're not you're not,posting,they've seen it all already whereas if,you were to post throughout the day,every time they pick up their phone,there's a new story to watch and that's,going to,give you more taps on your face at the,top there if your face is a profile,picture,so that's a really good thing to do is,to space it out throughout the day,now the next point and this is actually,a really interesting one and this is,start with something good so let's say i,haven't posted any stories and i,post something really good i will find,that i will get higher views on the,stories after that,if i've posted something good and the,same is true in the opposite sense,if i actually post something that's just,a little bit boring but i just felt like,posting it,then i have actually found that the,number of views that i get which is,lower,actually seems to correspond to the the,posts after that as well,so start with something good now the,next point i don't know whether this,really increases views or not but it is,a nice little hack that you can do,just remember that if you need to pack,loads of hashtags,into your stories or you need to put,loads of stickers in and mentions and,things like that,just remember that you can hide those,things with stickers you can,put them in and then put a sticker over,the top i think people have been doing,this for a long time so i'm not going to,dwell on it but just remember that you,can do that,now the next point and this you know,similar to the last one this is,you know getting really creative with,stories in fact you remember i said at,the beginning that i did a survey on,everyone's stories and what views they,were getting the way i did that was,actually quite interesting i used the,you know the slider and i added text to,it to make it a kind of,a bit of a gauge and i think a lot of,people actually just engaged with this,post because it was interesting and they,maybe not seen many people do it that,way,so if you can find a way to use all of,instagram stickers in a way that they're,maybe not intended to be used that's,really interesting,i think you probably drive more,engagement to your stories and that will,result in more views now i think the,next one goes without saying but that is,you know make your stories interactive,it's an absolute,definite that the more engagement that,your story gets th

How I Doubled My Instagram Story Views
How I Doubled My Instagram Story Views
I've managed to double my story views on,both my personal and business accounts,in the last couple weeks using this one,strategy so it works for all kinds of,accounts pay attention take some notes,and then ideally take action at the end,of it so you too can see results now the,Instagram story algorithm is not too,dissimilar from the home feed algorithm,in fact they share a lot of similarities,here's how Instagram themselves claim,the story's algorithm worked the most,important signals across feed and,stories roughly an order of importance,are firstly information about the post,these are signals about how popular a,post is think how many people have liked,it and more mundane information about,the content itself like when it was,posted how long it is if it's a video,and what location if anything was,attached to it followed by the second,most important signal which is,information about the person who posted,this helps us get a sense for how,interesting the person might be to you,and this includes signals like how many,times people have interacted with that,person in the past few weeks then the,third most important signal is your,activity this helps us understand what,you might be interested in and includes,signals such as how many posts you've,liked and the fourth and final signal is,your history of interacting with someone,this gives us a sense of how interested,you are generally and seeing posts from,a particular person an example is with,it or not you comment on each other's,posts now that's the official word from,Instagram so what they say is the most,important things to getting more story,views is actually engagement in your,interaction with your audience because,as Instagram have just said they're the,most important signal when it comes to,ranking both story posts and feed posts,is how popular a specific post is how,engaging a post is so the most important,thing to getting more story views is,engagement but how do you actually track,engagement on a story well it could be,how many people have actually liked that,story now that that is a feature it,could be how long someone has actually,viewed the story so if you post a 15,second video to to your story are people,skipping after two seconds are they,sitting there and watching the entire 15,seconds it makes a big difference if,there is a poll on the story it could be,how many people voted on that poll did,most of the people who saw it vote on it,or did very few people vote on it,Instagram also looks if you go forward,back or skip on a specific story as well,so if I go ahead and post five stories,right now uh do people get to the first,one and then just Skip Along to the next,story from a different person do they go,to the next part of my story so they,just tap across do they get to the,second part of my story and then tap,back to the first one to go get more,context which shows I'm more interested,there are all these little metrics and,what I've found to be the best Miss,trick and the biggest indicator to if,your stories will get pushed out to more,people is how many people actually reply,to your story because replies are the,highest form of Engagement it means so,much more than simply liking or watching,a story it shows you're actually a lot,more invested and in the content as well,as the person itself so let's Circle,back to how I actually doubled my story,views whilst posting less all I did was,post interesting engaging response,worthy stories so I cut out all of the,boring stuff Sunset photos the random,food pics the golf course pictures,because really no one is too interested,or intrigued by that kind of content No,One's Gonna See if you go out for dinner,and reply to your story unless that your,best friend or maybe the food was,incredible and in that situation if it's,out of the ordinary go for it it could,work but if it's just a mundane Friday,night after work go have a nice meal,it's not really helping anyone that,doesn't know you it's not really,building your brand so instead I kept it,only interesting stuff recently I didn't,ice bath with a couple of my mates Jamie,and Paul and they ran me through you,know how to do it the benefits of it all,of that stuff there I went in for three,minutes the first round did that and,then a couple weeks later I did a five,minute One update was super pumped and,they got some photos and so I posted,that on my story and was talking about,it that story got like a hundred people,reply to it because they were like what,the heck some people who knew about the,benefits of ice baths and all of that,were congratulating me and talking about,their own experience and sharing,different tips and stuff they'd learned,other people who might just follow me,from YouTube or know me in person and,don't really know much about the,benefits of it or like what the heck,you're sitting in 0.5 degree water for,five minutes you're absolutely crazy,fair enough understandable either way I,got a ton of interaction on that because,it was interesti

How to get MORE VIEWS on Instagram Stories in 2022
How to get MORE VIEWS on Instagram Stories in 2022
what's up everyone welcome back to my,channel in today's video i want to share,my top five tips when it comes to,getting more views on your stories even,for me i have over 200 000 followers on,instagram and i also have found that,story views are a hit or miss sometimes,i'll have very little views while other,times i'll have tens of thousands of,views and i always wondered why that's,why in today's video i want to share my,top five tips when it comes to,increasing your story retention and,getting more views so let go now before,we begin i would like to say that i am,quite a data scientist i have done,extensive research on this topic of,instagram stories specifically i pulled,my audience of 200 000 people and i,asked them what was their biggest pet,peeve and what causes them to drop off,when they look at other people's stories,and by far the number one complaint was,when other people post way too many,stories now you might be wondering what,exactly is too many to give you context,something like this is about 18 stories,and so if you were to really gauge this,i would say that anything over 25 to max,30 stories is already quite a lot and,when your stories start looking like,this like these little micro dots that's,probably when you want to take a,breather and kind of stop posting so,that your post can marinate for a little,bit longer and you're giving people,breathing space now moving on to the,next tip that i have for you to increase,your story views and that is not posting,for 24 hours and letting your stories,expire this is especially important if,you have noticed that you've posted a,lot in a day it actually doesn't add,more value or more views if you keep,adding to that same sequence and never,letting your stories expire and so what,i like to do is if i notice that i've,posted way too much i will actually,consciously take a break for 24 hours,let my stories expire and then post,again after everything has been cleared,what i notice when i do this is that the,story i post after the 24 break actually,gets a lot more views than if i kept,adding to that sequence so that is,definitely something that you should,consider trying now this leads me to the,third tip that i have and that is if you,decide to let your stories expire after,24 hours the first story that you repost,should be something that you know is,going to capture your audience's,attention so for example after that 24,period has gone i'm not going to post a,reshare or a quote post because i know,that's not really going to get the views,that i want and instead i might post a,behind the scenes of my life or a video,of me or something that i know is going,to capture my audience's attention and,cause them to want to click further into,the story sequence now speaking of,capturing your audience's attention a,great way to actually make sure that,your stories get sent to as many people,as possible is at least once a day,consider adding some interactive,stickers to your stories so for example,once a day i'll try to do polls or i'll,try to do sliders so that as many people,are actually engaging with my stories,that way the instagram algorithm will,say ah this person is engaging with,vanessa's stories so let's make sure,that vanessa's stories are in the,forefront of their feed and so at least,once a day try to use an interactive,sticker if you can i also think this is,a big reason why instagram has changed,its story interface to actually promote,you to use an interactive sticker so,definitely take advantage of it and use,it more in your stories the next tip,that i have for you also comes from the,research that i did polling my audience,in terms of what makes them drop off the,most when they're watching other,people's stories and that is when your,stories especially if you're speaking in,them don't have text and we're not just,talking about these captions right here,because i found that a lot of people,don't really care about these captions,if anything they're looking for the,actual text so even though it's going to,take extra time for you to actually,write out the text it is well worth it,because it increases retention a lot of,people don't have the patience to watch,through 15 seconds even if these,captions are on there they want to know,what the story is about right away so if,you're not adding text to your stories,or you're just using the caption feature,you are missing out on a lot of views,and that is probably why you're not,retaining your audience,another insight that i collected from,researching and asking why people drop,off from watching instagram stories is,when your instagram stories become,really stale so my recommendation is to,always switch up the modalities when,you're creating instagram stories and,what i mean by this is making sure that,not the entire sequence is you talking,to the camera or not the entire sequence,is you re-sharing posts or not the,entire sequence is just text you want to,switch things up very similar to,watching a movie or watch
