Hey RUclips fam! Which one of these tips will you be trying this week? 👀 P.S. GET YOUR FREE COPY OF OUR ULTIMATE INSTAGRAM CHECKLIST: bit.ly/HSInstaChecklist
I just discovered your channel and it's the best that I've seen on social media! So many other channels throw out arbitrary numbers and ideas that seemed to be based on nothing, but yours is the only one that makes sense and is full of real advice. Definitely subscribing. Thank you for all of your help!
Hi Moana-Marie, that is so kind! Thank you so much, we really focus on only mentioning things we know for a fact to be true and delivering actionable advice that you can implement immediately, so honestly that's so amazing to hear :) Thank you again and welcome! - C
Hey guys, good to see another valueable video from you Theme pages work really well! Trending music has been a game changer too. Gotta make your reels attractive and that's one of the ways.👌
Thanks Harry! Getting reposted on those theme pages are so key, and yesss loving the trending audio for reach, forces me to get creative to fit the songs which is fun. Thanks for watching! - T
Hi guys love your channel. I'm still having trouble with theme accounts and I've read all your answers to questions posted. I'm having trouble identifying these accounts. Is it possible for you to do a video on the matter? It would be greatly appreciated.
This is a great video! I make a lot of content that is about how creators grow through their business(es) as well - pumped to see others making stuff in the same space. :)
You're so welcome! We actually just changed our Instagram account over to a creator account this month, now we can access and use the music, and it hasn't impacted us yet. We'll see if anything changes but it may be something to consider depending on your business. - T
@@Highseasonco I sell physical and digital planner supplies so some of the business tools are pretty useful. No idea if they are available for a creator account, but that might make a great video!
You're so welcome Cheri! It will definitely make an impact, and it just doubles up as an opportunity for you to engage / comment etc to keep yourself ranking in the algorithm. - T
I'm struggling to look for theme accounts, are there any key words or hashtags we should be looking for when trying to find them?? I have a Disney account so pretty sure there should be some theme pages for that niche xxx Thank you so much for the tips xxxx
Hi Cara-Leigh, thanks for the kind words. Essentially you'd want to search for the key words, so for you, it'd be Disney, Mickey, Minnie, Goofy etc. There's nothing under those big keywords? - C
Thank you! You can search for a hashtag app (they seem to be few and far between), or use Instagram's search to look for hashtags. Another great resource is your competitors or influencers in your industry. - C
Hi guys, thanks for the content! Is there a way to use customer reels on a business account, if they are using prohibited songs? As businesses can't use all music on Insta...
Hey - you're welcome! If your account doesn't have music available you will take a risk by reposting anything that doesn't have pre-cleared music. Have you considered changing your account type so that you can access music? We broke down some ways here: ruclips.net/video/5TKm6qe2JMI/видео.html Changing your business account to "entrepreneur" is also a way we've heard can help you access all music. - T
@@Highseasonco Ah okay, thanks for the reply. I will definitely do some more research. I havnt considered that, but will look into it. And will also check out the video you sugestted. Thank you
really helpful video ... my question is you talked about 10 Theme Accounts and my niche is fashion. Does that mean that in my case i should tag influencers who also do fashion?
Hey guys, thanks for great, actionable the content as always! Love your work. We've reduced to 5 #'s and seen a drop in the last few days but we're in Australia and think this could be as our main target markets are coming out of lockdown and otherwise preoccupied! Do you think it's worthwhile for brands to resources into feed posts anymore? Or should most time and production resources be put into reels + stories? Feels like feed posts are so easily overlooked these days...
Hi Sophie, thank you so much! That's what most folks have been saying, I think it's worth testing more over time to see if the drop continues, and if it does, just go back to 30 hashtags. We're still testing to see quantitatively how things perform. Makes sense re the Oz market. I would definitely say it's better to lean in heavily to Reels for sure, images are fine here and there but Reels will move the needle for you. Thanks for watching! - C
Why is that with the trending arrow up icon, my personal account has it on reels when I scroll through reels but my business account when I search for that same reel on the exact same user account, it doesn't have that trending arrow up. Also, in my business account, NO REEL has the trending up arrow icon. Only my personal account reels has it on like every 3rd reel when I scroll....
So that's typically a theme account asking for permission to use your post. There shouldn't be anything scammy about that, but just check the page before agreeing to make sure it's somewhere you'd like to include your post. - C
Hi Leslie, we'd recommend to keep it to just single images or videos. The split images look cool when people see the profile grid, but they rarely are engaging pieces individually. You'd be hurting your engagement but going with one of those types of images, unless it was some sort of designed piece where each part is engaging in and of itself. - C
Usually virality doesn't always equal followers. Because so many posts go viral every day, users don't really even look at the account who posted it. There's not much you can do to fix that really, it's essentially part of the nature of going viral. If all of your other posts are similar to the one that went viral then it could help potentially, it would be worth a shot. - C
I believe we addressed it in this video, we're still testing! It's only been about ~3 weeks so far which isn't enough time to determine if it's working or not. Soon! - C
Sir and mam , there's a problem when i uploaded the first two reel they both got the reach to 4000+ and likes 150+ in a single day , but in third reel i used the same time to upload, used the same count if hashtags (17-20 hashtags) and hashtags relate to post and even almost better quality but still its not even crossing 100 view , i m still confused why this is happening ?
Hi there, so Instagram recently changed their hashtag strategy where you need to use 3-5 hashtags. Here's more information about it: ruclips.net/video/Q9SyGmscI4I/видео.html
Hey, one of my posts got removed because it was falsely reported. Now I'm shadowbanned my account doesn't show up in search when one search it up using the keywords like it used to, they took my eligibility for branded content and I had a massive engagement drop used to get 4-6k impressions from hashtags everyday now its down to 30 impressions from hashtags. Is there a way i can get rid of this shadowban? will it stay like this forever? please help.
This happened to a friend of mine. It just eventually went back to normal. Alternatively, you can reach out to Facebook Help here: facebook.com/business/help/support
@@_yashika It took months, probably 2-3 months, for his account to come back. Hence I recommend reaching out to that support link to speed up the process. - C
so... on my 2nd IG account im doing "My take" on recipes. can i tag the inspiration accounts? "This is my take on a great dish from ___ who was my inspiration!" Please let me know!
Hi Chrissy, definitely tag the accounts that you're taking inspiration from. You could even potentially remix their posts on Reels, it may be a fit sometimes. - C

Love how you get right into it, thumbs up for not creating a 5 minute intro before giving us the deets :p

As a business account I am not able to save to use later most trending music. I will try some of the others. Thanks for sharing.

Currently trying out reels! And reach is absolutely higher! 🙌
The amount of love being given to reels by the algorithm is wild, glad you got on the ride! 🙌 - T

@@Verbsdescribeus Try different things - switch out the hashtags, share to Stories, etc!
Ty so much for this!!! I need to work on engaging before and after for sure

When you post a Reel and write hashtags in the caption, does the reel appear to some of people who follow those hashtags or not?
It sure does! - C

@@Highseasonco Thanks Craig! Really appreciate your response. Will definitely be investing our time in reels 🙌
@@seeksolitudestore My pleasure, Sophie! I think that'll be the move for you, let us know how you go :)
Why is that with the trending arrow up icon, my personal account has it on reels when I scroll through reels but my business account when I search for that same reel on the exact same user account, it doesn't have that trending arrow up. Also, in my business account, NO REEL has the trending up arrow icon. Only my personal account reels has it on like every 3rd reel when I scroll....
That could be because Business accounts don't have access to regular audio. If you change it to a Creator account, it'll be fine. - C
What if profiles comment under a picture you post to dm them your picture to use is this the same as tip one or is it more of a scam.
So that's typically a theme account asking for permission to use your post. There shouldn't be anything scammy about that, but just check the page before agreeing to make sure it's somewhere you'd like to include your post. - C
@@Highseasonco thanks for the reply.
Is it ok to do a Beatbox Video and use a trendsong but only with volume 0-10? So you cant hear the sound?
It should still show up in the trending songs, but I can't promise. Give it a go! - C
I tried to test the hashtags. For me, it's dropped my rearch. So, I'm really curious to see the results...
Interesting! We'll be putting together our thoughts soon, we just want to be thorough. Thanks for watching! - C
What's your opinion on splitting images into 6 or 9 posts?
Hi Leslie, we'd recommend to keep it to just single images or videos. The split images look cool when people see the profile grid, but they rarely are engaging pieces individually. You'd be hurting your engagement but going with one of those types of images, unless it was some sort of designed piece where each part is engaging in and of itself. - C
I had a question, how do i find theme accounts??
Hi! Search for your niche in the search bar and they should come up, typically they're named directly after the industry/niche. - C
@@Highseasonco thanks 😊
Hey there, Some of my feed posts go viral and get 10-20k likes with only 4500 followers but most of them aren't following. What to do?
Usually virality doesn't always equal followers. Because so many posts go viral every day, users don't really even look at the account who posted it. There's not much you can do to fix that really, it's essentially part of the nature of going viral. If all of your other posts are similar to the one that went viral then it could help potentially, it would be worth a shot. - C
Awesome content
Thank you! - C
How do we know what are theme accounts in our niche?
Check via search. Look up your niche keywords and you should be able to easily find them. - C
What’s the haps on the 5 hashtag study?
I believe we addressed it in this video, we're still testing! It's only been about ~3 weeks so far which isn't enough time to determine if it's working or not. Soon! - C
How do u find your niches theme accounts?
Search in the Instagram search for the key words for your niche. - C
@@Highseasonco so, say my niche was anime, can u find some for that. It would be greatly appreciated
@@NotWeuben We can't do that for you, but the Instagram search bar is a great start :) - C
what about comedy themes.. who should I tag
