How To Trigger Facebook Algorithms To Give Your Post Maximum Visibility As a Small Creator
As someone with a small following, you’re not the algorithm’s favorite person, whether it’s on Facebook, Instagram, or other social media networks.
Your post has a lifespan of 12 hours or less to either perform or be pushed down the drain.
Here’s a simple hack to help you:
First, understand that whenever you post content, people are actually seeing it, whether or not they engage with it. Our goal here is to lure them to engage and give us maximum visibility.
Instead of the usual post that gives you 10 likes, make a very SHORT post. This could be a question. It could be something controversial or funny—a very relatable experience.
This way, you’ll get more people than usual engaging with the content.
For Facebook, use the Facebook custom background designs.
Try to make the post in a way that elicits COMMENTS. Very important.
Once comments begin to drop, ensure you RESPOND to ALL, and if possible, extend the conversation in the comment section.
Done?
At this moment, the eyes of the system are charged. It wants more from you because people love what you’re doing, and it’s willing to serve you and drive more engagement like a loyal servant.
Give it 10-20 minutes, then drop your most cherished content.
Boom!
Everybody that ENGAGED with your last post will be shown the new content freely. Most importantly, the system will push it to others.
If the content passes a unique message, your engagement will soar to the mountaintop.
