Getting LOW VIEWS on Instagram even when you’re posting good content? Check these settings first. 👀
Before blaming the Instagram algorithm or creating another Reel, check these 6 Instagram settings that could affect your content quality, discoverability and reach.
① Account Status
Check whether your Instagram content is eligible to be recommended to non-followers.
② Upload at Highest Quality
Turn this on to upload your Instagram Reels and posts at the best available quality.
③ Sharing & Recommendation Settings
Review your sharing settings and make sure you’re not unnecessarily limiting how your content can be discovered.
④ Account Privacy
Using Instagram to grow your business? Make sure your account is public so new audiences can discover your content.
⑤ Professional Account
A Business or Creator account gives you access to Instagram Insights and professional tools to track your content performance.
⑥ Content Preferences
Review your recommendation and content preferences so you understand what may affect your Instagram experience.
And no — simply changing these settings won’t magically make your Reel go viral.
Your Reel hook, watch time, skip rate, shares, saves and content quality still play an important role in Instagram performance.
But if you’re trying to increase Instagram views and reach more non-followers, these basic settings are worth checking before you spend more time creating your next Reel.
Save this Instagram settings checklist and check yours before your next post. 📌
