Let’s make your next post actually work for you 👇
Here are a few quick Do’s & Don’ts to keep your content performing its best ✨
✅ DO’s
1. Write show-stopping hooks.
You’ve only got a few seconds to grab attention, make your first line scroll-stopping, not skippable.
2. Use the 4:5 ratio.
It takes up more space on the feed (which means more eyes on your post!).
3. Engage 20–30 minutes after posting.
Reply to comments, answer DMs, and interact with others. It tells the algorithm your content’s worth showing.
4. Check your insights regularly.
They’re your best free tool for learning what your audience actually wants more of.
❌ DON’Ts
1. Don’t assume the content you love will perform best.
Sometimes your favourites flop and your quick posts fly - trust the data, not your gut.
2. Don’t ignore saves and shares.
They’re stronger signals than likes - they show your post had real value.
3. Don’t ignore your best times to post.
Your audience’s activity matters. Post when they’re online, not when it suits you.
4. Don’t post low-quality visuals or content.
Blurry images or messy designs hurt your credibility - keep it clear, clean, and on-brand.
💡 Little tweaks like these can make a big difference in your online presence.
