[00:01] Instagram followers in just 24 hours is making sure that you actually have your to make sure that you have the right settings turned on and a few other Now, that first setting that you need to make sure is turned on is going to be

[00:13] translate voice right here. This is going to be in your account settings sure that you're turning it on every single time that you go to post something. You want to have translate voice on and you want to make sure

[00:25] enable closed captions is on and translate closed captions. So, these three right here, they need to be turned on. If these things are not turned on on Instagram, your content isn't going to get as much reach as it could

[00:37] potentially get because Instagram might find other audiences for it in other languages that would have never seen your content if you didn't have these sure that you're doing what Nick right here did with his profile picture. We

[00:50] profile picture with the bright blue background. He didn't just keep it the room that he was in like other people would have or a white background. He has It increase the odds that somebody actually recognizes him, that they

[01:04] remember him, and that they watch his content again. In addition to that, being verified on Instagram, which you can now literally just apply for and register for, anybody can, this will actually increase your reach. It just

[01:16] gives you more availability and again, it makes your account more memorable. it. On top of that, you want to make sure that your bio right here has all of the keywords that show up in your content. We can see the credit, credit

[01:29] cards, credit strategy shows up all the time inside of his content. And if we come over here, we see credit score, we see fixed credit, we see get approved, evaluation. So, basically what's happening is his content is speaking to

[01:43] his description and this is all speaking to Instagram, telling Instagram, "Hey, after. This is who you need to make sure that you're showing my content to." And then as a result, the Instagram algorithm has a way easier job actually

[01:56] In addition to that, story highlights right here, really important that these credit repair, we could see best cards, we could see card review. They want to have the same keywords as what is showing right here in your description.

[02:10] Change number two is you need to make sure that you stop making three critical way too many creators making is that you're posting when your followers are your growth because you don't want to reach your followers. Instead, you want

[02:24] to be reaching non-followers. And the number one way to do that is to post most views. And ideally, people that are getting a lot more views than you because what this is going to allow you to do is reach your ideal audience when

[02:37] they're online and not just your followers. In addition to that, you need to make sure that you stop using more than three hashtags when you go to post has literally come out and said you want to make sure that you're using three or

[02:51] less hashtags because after that, the algorithm is actually going to stop to how many hashtags you use. So, ideally, what you should be doing is just three hashtags for whatever you're talking about. And you need to make sure that

[03:03] the hashtags have the same keyword that's showing in your description, in your voiceover in the first 3 seconds, and then also in the text hook that you thing you need to make sure you're doing is you want to make sure that you are

[03:16] posting trial reels. This is the number one thing that you could do right now to grow faster on Instagram. You want to be posting anywhere from one to five trial reels every day. And ideally, what you should be doing is creating content that

[03:29] doesn't look like your normal content. Sometimes it should be memes, sometimes it should be testing something, sometimes it should be non-talking do is this is going to help you test

[03:41] And the number one thing about trial reels is they only get shown to non-followers. So, you could post as many of them as you want, up to five a day. And if they do well, guess what? You post them on your real feed, and

[03:54] boom, you start to get more reach, and this is an insane update. In addition to want to share with you, you can now reorder where stuff actually shows on your Instagram feed. So, what I would do is make sure that your first six posts

[04:08] at all times are your most viewed posts, and reorder them that way, because this will help people think, "Hey, this account is doing really good," which increase the odds that they follow you. Change number three is you need to make

[04:20] your competitors, and that you know who your competitors are. This is one of the and lucky for you, there's actually an AI tool that makes this incredibly easy to do, and it's going to allow you to recreate their posts in seconds. Check

[04:33] this incredibly easy is going to be contentbuddies.ai. If we come under they have tons of different tools. For example, if we come under reach optimization, we'll see best time to post. This allows you to actually type

[04:46] in your handle or somebody else's. For example, let's say that we want to here, and copy their success. We could literally just put in their username through and look up the best days and the best times that they post based on

[05:01] And what this is going to do is allow you to know best time to post, the best days, so that you can optimize your content to reach a better audience. the world, but if you're posting at the wrong time, I promise you, you will

[05:14] never get the reach that you want or that you deserve. We can see right here that when she posts on Tuesday, 4 to 6 p.m., 92,000 views. Tuesday from 12 to 1 a.m., 77,000 views. Saturday from 12 to 1 a.m., 71,000 views. So, we can see

[05:29] that most of the time she is posting pretty late in the day. Now, she is on different for her, but as we can see, her later content performs way better than if she posts early in the day. And as we can see here, she actually almost

[05:42] data. Now, the other thing that's incredibly useful that Content Buddy has here into research and insights to discover trends, we could find the for our niche. In addition to that, they have a keyword finder where we can

[05:57] actually searching for. But this competitor tracker tool right here is come over here and we could click on find breakout videos and what this is going to do is actually find posts that are performing two times above each

[06:12] actually able to add in whatever list of competitors that you want and we could see that this creator right here made this breakout post that got 175,000 34,000 views. And if we click on recreate right here, this is going to

[06:26] write us a brand new script, brand new hook, brand new hashtags, brand new description based on this original so that we could recreate this video. And this will actually pull up the post. We could verify that it did incredibly well

[06:39] and when we come back over here, we're going to have an answer. Not just any optimized script based off of theirs. It's going to be based on that same length. A hook based off of theirs. It's going to be a better, more comprehensive

[06:51] actually watch content more. We have a caption right here. We have the hashtags and now we're able to recreate that post literally in just a few seconds. And if you're not using an AI tool like contentbuddy.ai and quite frankly, this

[07:04] do all of this, you are going to get left behind in 2026 because the creators going to be AI creators, but instead they're going to be creators that are >> So what are you waiting for? Go to that pin comment below and get started with

[07:32] spend less time creating content for Instagram so you can actually spend that you waiting for? Go to the pin comment below and get started with it today. Step number four is you need to make sure that you're adding multiple call to

[07:46] make. And you want to make sure that these are follow call to actions. And there's essentially three different ways that you could do this. Let me explain. to actually do this is what this creator right here is doing. We could see that

[07:59] I'll send you everything that you need to start. So, basically, she's putting a follow call to action inside of her description. This is the first way that actually combining this with the second method for doing this. So, we could see

[08:13] Essentially, what she has right here is she has a ManyChat automation set up that is going to make sure that people are actually following her. This is what that actually looks like. So, basically, what that's going to look like is right

[08:27] over here. If we scroll down a little bit, we could see, "Hey, click below and what actually gets sent. We then click on send the guide. And then, what this will actually do is say something like, "Sorry, the free guide is only for my

[08:40] followers. Make sure you hit and tap below." It actually checks. And essentially, what this does is it makes sure that somebody isn't actually sent the guide or the thing that you were actually going to send to them unless

[08:52] these two methods right here will increase the odds of people end up following you. One, just asking for it inside of the description of your post, description. Secondly, you want to have a ManyChat automation set up that won't

[09:05] actually send somebody the resource that you are going to be sending them unless final thing that you could do is actually what I do in my posts. So, if we're actually looking at this post right here, we watch through his post,

[09:17] we could see that once this post is over, I'm going to actually ask people incredibly powerful method. It's very that I go like this and I point. That's when I'm actually telling people to

[09:30] with AI. You want to be smarter with AI, make sure you're following me. That was said was if you want to be smarter with AI, make sure you're following me. It's tied perfectly into what this video is actually about, which is ChatGPT's new

[09:43] the three ways for you to be able to turn your viewers into followers. Once it's in the description, secondly, with a ManyChat automation, and third, end of your videos. And all of them should be direct and asking to follow.

[09:57] that you're focused on getting the right shared with you in the step number four, getting followers is going to be really important. When Instagram's algorithm sees that somebody followed your page

[10:10] after watching a piece of content, it actually increase the odds that they push out that piece of content and help you get more views for that piece of of engagement that you should be going after. The second type of engagement is

[10:22] after people sharing your content. Because if people share your content, it actually makes you eligible to get an extra 200 to 300 views. So, one share on Instagram can equate to an extra 200 to 300 views. So, the more shares you get,

[10:37] you're getting people to actually want to make sure that they're commenting things that are actually going to help boost that post in the algorithm. AKA, whatever keyword is

[10:51] showing in your metadata. Your metadata is going to be what's showing in your hashtag, what's showing in your voiceover, the text on the screen, and those things have ChatGPT, you want people commenting ChatGPT. If all four

[11:04] of those things have GLP-1, you want people commenting GLP-1. If all four of make sure people are commenting about fishing. And then that last thing you to do is repost your content. When somebody reposts your content, it is

[11:19] basically like a retweet on Twitter. It actually gets your piece of content to get shown to all those people's followers, and this is a huge boost that that you're not only focusing on one type of engagement, but instead

[11:31] different types of engagement, this is going to help you increase your reach. want to learn exactly how the Instagram algorithm works right now in 2026 so time creating content, I would strongly suggest you check out this video right

[11:47] it works. If that sounds interesting, it works. If that sounds interesting, I'll see you over there.
