17 Instagram Tips Straight From The CEO
|
Hey team, Instagram's CEO has recently dropped 17 different algorithm tips and growth hacks to help you understand Instagram and grow faster in 2025. So I went out and spent some time analysing his videos, interviews, and press releases to compile a list of the most effective tips to grow in 2025, direct from the source. Here are some key points you need to know: 1. Stories Are Your Secret WeaponStories won't directly get you new followers, but they're crucial for growing your audience. Here's why:

Pro tip: Add text to your first slide for context and keep people scrolling. Even better, make your second slide equally engaging, as Instagram will often show this slide as the cover to people who didn't engage the first time they saw it. 3. Hashtags Aren't Worth Your TimeThe CEO himself confirmed hashtags don't improve visibility anymore. Their AI has evolved to understand your content without them. Spend that time on creating better content instead. 4. High Production Value Might Be Hurting YouUnless you're working with luxury brands, being too polished can make your content less relatable.

Hey team, A couple months ago, I made a different kind of video for YouTube than usual.
