Whether you want to create personal content, market your project and online store on Instagram, or even just become a content creator, all these tips will work for you, especially since you're getting advice from someone who currently has followers on multiple Instagram pages and posts on all platforms. So, let's get straight to the point. Tip number one is that you have to be a human being. This number one is that you have to be a human being. This advice applies literally to Instagram specifically because Instagram is like Facebook back in the day; people don't just want to watch content; they look for other people. So, when I tell you that you have to be a human being, it's not just about your way of speaking or your profile. You have to be everything. You literally have to show your complete personality. For example, on YouTube and other platforms, you usually find people doing things like other platforms, you usually find people doing things like opening packages, doing things that are just about filming and giving information. But on Instagram, if you look now... How will people perceive you? People start their posts using phrases like "Hey everyone," "Hey brothers," and they talk to you more in a complaining tone. This is very important because people on Instagram like to follow people, not pages that are purely educational or try to be professional. Instagram, in particular, is where people like to follow other people, so make your communication style human. Even the script you prepare should be human. Your choice of topics, your page, your name—everything should sound genuine, coming from a human being, not from a page or a person. Just try to create content. For example, in this video, I start by saying "Hey everyone" and complaining about my problems. The video is successful; it gets 12,000 likes and half a million views, or this one gets 2.5 million views. And I'm talking about "Hey everyone" and explaining my problem, even though the video doesn't have a specific topic. People on Instagram topic. People on Instagram genuinely like to empathize with you and your problems. And this is the first piece of advice I consider most suitable for Instagram. The second piece of advice is to pay attention to watch time. Watch time is the most important thing, not just on Instagram, but on all social media. When you create an Instagram page and post reels, you'll have something in your statistics called watch time. This shows how many people watch a video, for example, if the video is 56 seconds long, how much time people spend watching it. If the average is 46 seconds, then people are watching most of the video, which means it's successful and gets millions of views. This video might have had 11 million views just because people watched it completely. So, if people are watching now, meaning 100% of them stayed for the first eight seconds, then the video is excellent. If people are leaving after the first video, this indicator is dropping, or if you're watching a 50-second video but people are only watching that part, then the video is excellent. If your video is only 10 seconds long, it means it's bad. You need to figure out where people are leaving it and fix the problem. Any successful video you'll ever see will have this pattern: people aren't leaving it, it's progressing smoothly. But if you're seeing this pattern all at once, then you know you have problems with views. All my successful videos, all with over 10 million views, are about 30 seconds long, and people only watch 28 seconds of each video. This also applies to Instagram, especially. When you create an account, whether it's a business account for a company or a personal professional account for content creation, you'll see something called Insights or statistics about watch time. If your watch time is low, your video will definitely fail. Personally, as someone who's made hundreds of videos, I stopped paying attention to them. But I know one important thing: if a video is 100% good, it will succeed regardless of the platform. So you need to You make a video that you literally love to watch and that the people around you love to watch, and that was tip number two. As for tip number three, it is that you must use artificial intelligence. Today, artificial intelligence can do most things for you in a video, like the text that is put here, or even videos about you. We used to make them with AI. This is the company Bath.ae. Here are the videos we used to make. For example, this person, this person is not real, this person is made 100% from AI. Listen to the voice. If you can make the face of the brand, then you don't need to imagine. Today you can make the special effect. Imagine the guy moving and talking, and he is not even real. We made this person on one site real. We made this person on one site called bsh. Any broadcast. Yes, this is an Arabic website that you can access from your phone or computer browser. Just type "bath.ai" into your browser. Once you enter the site, you can use it in Arabic or English. Since it's an Arabic website, you can use it in Arabic and even write in Arabic. It has all the artificial intelligence tools at your disposal. For example, the character I showed you is created on the site using the digital character feature. You go here, choose the character you want to speak to, and that character appears. You can also create the subtitles I showed you. You can add subtitles to your videos. I even had a video about a date and explaining a whole story. All the footage for that story was created on the site. I used a feature called "Create Images." I took a picture of a girl in the market (the same girl I saw here now), and then I used a feature called " Picture to Video." I converted the picture of the girl and the man into a video where she was holding the date and the man was explaining things to her. And don't forget again that the writing was also created using the site's feature I told you about. So here you have all the AI ​​features, whether you want to create an image, audio, video, or text, and combine them all to edit them together. You have a video editor, meaning everything you can think of for IO is available here in the tools section. And if you don't want tools, if you don't want to learn IO, you even have things like quick ads. You even have things like quick ads. You upload anything here and it turns into an ad with just one click. For example, this template—click on it here— says, "If I upload a picture of any piece of clothing, this person will be wearing it in this video." Or if I want it to be just a picture, I have a file with all these pictures of things. I want to take this picture of a shirt and put it on the site, and this person will be wearing my shirt with just one click. I click the button, and within 20 seconds, I've got him wearing the shirt I want. That's it, I have the image and I can use it for marketing or content and do whatever I want with it. So you can use AI to do anything you want, and all of this is on one website that works in Arabic on your phone or computer called Bath.ae. I haven't told you yet about the video creation feature where you write any topic and it turns into complete content. This is an example of the topic. Let me show you this video: Did you know that the pyramids hide secrets that have not yet been discovered? Let's explore the story of the pyramids. If you want to make these content videos, stories like these that have pictures, sounds, writing, and everything else, the Egyptian pyramids that were built thousands of years ago and are considered among the oldest, then use this website. It also has a feature called video creation. You create a content video and make it about any topic you want in the world. So that was the third piece of advice: to use artificial intelligence because it will make everything easier for you. Now, the will make everything easier for you. Now, the fourth piece of advice is that consistency is very, very important. Consistency on Instagram is more important than anything. Another platform, because if you upload a good video on Instagram, it's very difficult for it to succeed unless you keep uploading more. The best way to literally push a video and increase its numbers is to upload another video after it. Because when you upload a video and it gets 1000 views, and then you upload another video that also gets 1000 views, the 1000 people who watched the first video will start coming to the second video, and the 1000 people who watched the second video will start coming to the first video. This phenomenon has a name in English, and it's called the Snowball Effect. It's like when a snowball first falls from a valley; it starts small, but quickly it gets much bigger. This is exactly what happens on Instagram. When you upload a video, its numbers are still weak, and the second one has weak numbers, and the third one has weak numbers, but with a little time, suddenly your account will explode, and you'll see every video with over 50,000 and 100,000 views. The point of creating this snowball effect isn't about posting every day, or 10 videos a week, or five a week. The number doesn't matter. Posting a specific number of videos per week is meaningless. The key is consistency. You day, you need to post another within the next three days. Don't be fixated on a fixed schedule. Just understand that to keep your account active and Instagram supporting you, you need to post at intervals that suit you. That was tip number four. Tip number five is to not strive for perfection. Don't try to be perfect. Don't try to be the best at filming or editing, or strive for perfection in your appearance or anything else you do in the video. Many people, when they start creating content, try to please others by saying everything they feel obligated to say and doing everything they feel obligated to do. Mistakes are very serious because if you try to please everyone, no one will like your video. Let me give you a very clear example. Look at this video; I'm talking about a phone processor and something very complex, but I always get negative comments, people making fun of me. For example, they might say I pronounce the letter " R" incorrectly, or things like that. Regarding my appearance and filming, you'll find many comments making fun of me, and people will ask me why I speak like that, or someone might say, "I dare you to say 'Amir ordered the prince of princes to build a well in the desert' because I pronounce the letter 'R' incorrectly." So people make fun of me. Some people make fun of my correct. Many people will criticize me in the video, and I'm very happy that people criticize me because if these comments weren't there, the video wouldn't have gotten a million views. It might have gotten 100,000 views. So, these were my five tips when you enter the world of Instagram. Tell me what you think. What did you think in the comments? And tell me if you tried the Bath.ae website because it actually has everything you'll need. Also, tell me your opinion about it in the comments. need. Also, tell me your opinion about it in the comments. Tak.
