💡 Today’s Insight 💡
🗞 TL;DR - Instagram’s Chief Adam Mosseri just shared new tips on how to utilize IG’s content performance insights, as well as which data points are relevant to different types of engagement and usage. While Mosseri’s notes are pretty vague and familiar, the guidance may help those of you who are racking your brains to improve your IG performance.
💡 Insight - Here’s what Mosseri said, “The thing I think that matters most, and that you really should focus on, is not how much reach your post got. That is an important thing, obviously, but if you want to understand why a post got more or less reach, you should focus on your engagement rates. So of all the people who saw the post, how many of them actually engaged with that post?”
Here’s what that means: Instagram’s algorithm increasingly interprets engagement (shares, saves, comments, and watch time) as signals of content quality and distribution potential. Basically, posts that generate meaningful interactions are more likely to get their brands expanded reach beyond followers.
Mosseri also detailed connected reach vs unconnected reach. Connected reach is the number of an account’s followers who viewed the post, while unconnected reach is the number of people who don’t follow an account that saw it. More likes on a post will ensure that more of that account’s followers will see it.
Lastly, Mosseri touched upon a common point of debate among users: while more engagement with an account does mean a follower is more likely to see that brand’s posts, only a fraction of an account’s followers will see each new post from that brand. So, don’t stress too much about post timing or follower counts, and instead aim to create content that triggers active audience participation.
