Reasons You’re Getting Fewer Likes on Instagram

Info

There are so many things happening on social media that people are trying to comprehend it, causing a lot of frustration.First of all, there is the Instagram social media platform which its users seem to be receiving fewer likes than usual, which makes it hard for them to grow their Instagram account as we all know the growth of your Instagram account dramatically depends on the number of likes

Desperate measures call for a desperate time. As a result, people have to buy automatic Instagram likes to boost the number of likes on this Instagram platform. Like is a major factor in the growth of an Instagram account; Instagram assesses people's accounts value using the metric system. A lot of Instagram users like your videos and photos posts; the application will show it to more people.

Below are some of the reason why people are getting fewer likes on Instagram:

1). Bots are getting shut down

Instagram does not allow its users to use automated tools like automatic post schedulers and bots against its policy. Most of the popular Instagrams and popular bots app were shut down by Instagram, meaning that thousands or Instagram accounts operated by a bot were left without its automatic operator.

This has resulted in people getting fewer and fewer likes as some likes were due to bots liking and commenting on our posts.

2) 2. Shadowban

Lately, there has been a shadowban on Instagram, which has caused a lot of rage to Instagram users.This shadow ban is happening to everyone out of nowhere without giving people prior notice.

Some Instagram hashtags are not working anymore as there are no new people who can see your post, which results in no new people liking your post, therefore, making you receive fewer likes on Instagram.

3) Instagram’s algorithm changed

Instagram feed is no longer chronological, which means that your followers will not see whenever you post a new picture or video immediately. This will result in your followers, not immediately liking your recent posts.

Instagram takes note of the accounts you are often interacting with and shows you posts of that account to your home feed. This algorithm is disadvantageous as you require you to interact with people to increase your chances of getting a higher number of likes since the interaction will cause your post to show on your followers’ home feed.

A tip for you to work this algorithm into your favor is to turn on post notification for accounts whose posts you do not want to miss.

6). People love to watch Insta Stories

Instastories is located just on top of the home feed, so people will be tempted to watch stories rather than scrolling down to view your post.

This new feature of Instagram has caused people to get a few likes. But a way to work around this to post your recent post in the stories to notify your follower that you have a new post
