Definitely the 5-7 seconds reels have a great potential to going viral, since a lot of the trending audio is around that length. We've had a a couple hit the millions of views with 7 second reels, but also had a minute long reel get 3 million views and it was all our own audio, one take, no editing, just how we retained attention throughout
I have the "correct" audience for my account, so posting reels on grid actually boosts reels views as it lands on the correct audience right away. And if it doesn't land, then I do delete them from my grid and sometimes they do take off better.
my most viral reels are shorter than 7 seconds. But the majority of the followers it gets are people from india, iran, iraq.. I believe that mroe grown people watch a bit longer videos because many aren't as addicted to instagram like young people from these countries. I'll try to doing that now, post around 8 -11sec reels.
Week, I would actually like to post my reels NOT in my feed as I used to a while ago, but that option has disappeared for me. I’ve tried updating and stuff like that, but it didn’t work. I run other accounts and the button is still there for those. So it’s about my account. Any tips on how to get it back? Thanks!!!!
are we allowed to use capcut videos for Instagram (posts and ads - read somewhere now allowed). also can you discuss please if I design reel in canva (no access to capcut or insatgram popular songs in my case hip hop), means quality is down? i am doing reels for a client so cant design inside Instagram need to design and schedule in outside apps. thanks
Hi Dominik, I did. try not putting my reels on my profile grid but it doesn't work. my main issue is I'm unable to reach my target audience who don't know me yet.
very interesting video. I think you're referring to the authenticity trend, which became popular around 2016/17. Essentially, people are tried of feeling like they are being 'sold' an idea and prefer real people. ..well, that's what I thought of when hearing this. Thanks!
This is kind of obvious but it depends on how good your reels are and if the length makes sense - I have some long reels that do really well because there’s value provided in the reels (tutorials, details people want to focus on, etc.)
Well in my opinion this whole click baiting bulls..t is one reason why companies turn more and more away from influencers (at least the big ones). Fooling people is always shortsighted...

Do you recommend a regular account or a business account to monetize instagram?
I agree with you, I started shortening my videos to 5-6 seconds and I feel they are worse
Glad i could get some info and be entertained while doing it

Great value here Dominik. Appreciate you!
love your perspective. in the end its about charisma
They got rid of that switch to send it not to the main feed.
So what I understood is - it all comes down to your storytelling skills in the end.
Following up your tips from past few months and it's just 💯💯
Great to hear!
Woah! That reel feed tip is interesting (and something I’ve never heard before) I will experiment with that.
You should!
I tried it and got 2 views! I was surprised by that outcome so I deleted it.
my also share to feed option just disappeared!!! i can only share to feed now, when i don’t want to :/ anyone figure out how to solve this
The algorithm gets you or it doesn’t hash tags is the only thing you can do actively to get on someone radar

Do you have views? Have posted like 20 pics and 10 reels and 0 views, how did you do to get views?
It’s always changing

Thanks so much 💿

you had a typo on minute 10:32. There is no space between the "fro"m and the "the".

thanks buddy for all the helpful information
Any time!
thanks :) and what about hashtags? I heard that now they dead, is it true? because I like them:))
Thank you Dominik! xo
The truth is.... It seems more about luck on hitting the algorithm than anything else.
This is kind of obvious but it depends on how good your reels are and if the length makes sense - I have some long reels that do really well because there’s value provided in the reels (tutorials, details people want to focus on, etc.)
0:43 exploded here rear 🤣
None of your tips ever worked for me!
Would love to see your content !
Whats your page username so we can take a look?
I guess you’re not consistent 😢
Keep posting bro your talented
Lies!
7 sec reels doing really great job i think
0:43 "Exploed her rear". No pun intended😂
Why is the music fire
I don't think this work for musicians
Super valuable, thanks! Very underrated
I want give most important information to grow, its make good video
bro didn't disagree to anything dawg.
Removing a reel from the grid is a completely different thing than just sharing it to new people. So no, you actually can’t change it afterwards
Thx dom
Still have yet to go viral but I’m still trying 😅
I personally never went viral and I‘m a millionaire, so there’s that 😂🤷♂️
I used every single technique
But still struggle to get 1k
Meanwhile some girl does a lipsync and gets millions 🙄
You ain’t analyze 40k videos. sthu!
Well in my opinion this whole click baiting bulls..t is one reason why companies turn more and more away from influencers (at least the big ones). Fooling people is always shortsighted...
