Tips & Tricks to Get More Followers
on IG Reels
Tips & Tricks to Get More Followerson IG Reels
Tip 01
Hook Viewers in the First 3 Seconds- Start with a bang: Use bold text, a surprising visual, or a trending sound to grab attention immediately.
- Ask a question: “Did you know…?” or “Can you guess what happens next?” to spark curiosity.
- Teaser clip: Show the most exciting part of your Reel first, then backtrack (e.g., “Wait for the twist!”).
Tip 02
Optimize for Instagram's Algorithm- Use trending audio: Check Instagram’s “Trending Reels” section or tools like TikTok Creative Center to find viral sounds. Reuse them with your twist.
- Leverage hashtags: Mix niche-specific and trending tags (e.g., #ReelsTips, #ViralReels, #TravelHacks). Keep it under 10 hashtags.
- Post at peak times: Schedule Reels when your audience is active (check Instagram Insights). Generally, 7-9 AM and 5-7 PM local time work well.
Tip 03
Audio Hacks for Maximum Impact
- Layer sounds: Combine voiceover, background music, and sound effects (e.g., add a “whoosh” when transitioning).
- Original voiceovers: Use Filmora’s voice recording tool to narrate tutorials or add witty commentary.
- Silent-friendly captions: 85% of Reels are watched without sound. Add auto-generated captions (via Instagram) or design your own in Filmora.
Tip 04
Boost Engagement with Interactive Elements
- Polls or questions: Use Instagram's stickers to ask, "Which outfit should I pick?" or "Guess the ingredient!"
- Duet/Stitch prompts: Encourage others to recreate your Reel (e.g., "Try this dance challenge!").
- CTA (Call-to-Action): End with "Save for later," "Follow for more," or "Tag a friend who needs this."
Tip 05
Trends with a Twist
- Remix trends: Put your unique spin on viral challenges (e.g., a fitness influencer adding a nutrition tip to a dance trend).
- Niche-fy broad trends: Turn a generic "Morning Routine" into "Morning Routine for ADHD Entrepreneurs."
- Jump on seasonal trends: Holidays, festivals, or meme cycles (e.g., "Barbiecore" or "Silhouette Challenges").
Tip 06
Pro Tips for Virality
- Loop it: Design your Reel to loop seamlessly (e.g., a spinning object that ends where it began).
- Collaborate: Tag relevant accounts or creators to tap into their audience.
- Leverage nostalgia: Use retro filters, throwback songs, or "90s kid" references.
