I've got a smaller account(33k) and have noticed similar issues lately. It makes no sense as to why visibility fluctuates when my behavior hasn't changed. I have a feeling it's Instagram trying to push us to use their ad system.
- bigdubs 7y agoMy sense is at some point Instagram is going to suppress engagement unless you pay them, they may be testing out how that will play out.
- ForrestN 7y agoThis is my fear too. Instagram’s addictive neuroengineering has crowded out attention to our website, so it’s a platform where we need to be in order to reach our constituency. But we are a tiny non-profit and can’t afford to pay to play.
- sizzle 7y agoSounds like something out of the Yelp playbook I've experienced personally w.r.t. their shady sponsored advertising services and their review filtering and business search sorting algorithms.
- martin_a 7y agoI think so, yes. I have encountered this with Facebook pages, too. Either you go straight viral and get a constant stream of followers each day/week/month, or you flat out. For one project 700 likes was the end. I collected those in a few months due to natural growth and then it suddenly stopped. With 700 likes to the page there were only around 150-200 impressions per post (no matter time or day or post content) and Facebook _heavily_ offered me to use their ads to push my views. Tell me what you want, this is about monetization of their platforms, nothing else.
