Did you know that IG has shared what the Reels Algorithm proiotizes & what they don’t?

Here’s a quick breakdown of the videos that don’t typically land on the explore pages:

❌ Low-Res Videos:
Videos that have a low quality or have been put through several apps before being uploaded to Reels.

✅ Fix:
Record your Reels on IG if you don’t have professional software/camera.

❌ Watermarks:
Any video that has a watermark(Tik⏰ on it will not be shown on the explore pages.

✅ Fix:
Use the TT downloaded website to save without a watermark.

❌ Borders:
Borders around the video or on the bottom and/or top of the video.

✅ Fix:
Record with your phone vertical for all things Reels. Similar to stories, reels is recorded in the 9:16 dimensions.

❌ Cut Off/Too Much Text:
Any video that has too much text or text completely covering the face.

✅ Fix:
Keep text to a minimum by using bullet points and adding *more info in caption*.

❌ Bad Lighting:
This is when the subject of the video is hard to see/filmed in dark or backlit spaces.

✅ Fix:
RING LIGHTS are a must for recording Reels.
If you aren’t able to invest in a ring light, get in front of the biggest window you have & use natural lighting in front of you to record.
