Ever wondered why sometimes your posts disappear like you never even pressed “publish,” while other times they blow up like wildfire? That’s because Facebook’s algorithm is like that stubborn crush—you’ve got to know how to speak its love language if you want attention. Let me spill the tea:
Be consistent
If you ghost Facebook for weeks and then show up randomly, don’t expect the algorithm to roll out the red carpet. Post 3–5 times a week. Show up like that loyal partner who never misses date night.
Use Facebook’s own tools
Uploading a YouTube link? Big mistake. Facebook is like, “Oh, you’re sending people away? Not on my watch!” Always post directly inside Facebook—reels, photos, or text. That way, the platform keeps your content in the spotlight.
Start conversations, not commands
Instead of shouting “Like this post!” try “What do you think?” People love giving opinions. Comments are pure algorithm gold. The more people talk, the more Facebook pushes your post.
Switch it up
Imagine eating ugali every day for a year. Boring, right? Same with content. Post photos, videos, reels, text posts, and even go live. The variety keeps people curious—and the algorithm excited.
Grab attention in 3 seconds
People scroll fast. If your video intro is slow, boom—next! Hook them in the first 3 seconds with energy, curiosity, or a question that makes them pause.
Always end with a question
Think of your post like a conversation. If you drop a story and walk away, it dies. But if you ask, “What’s your take?” people respond, and that engagement boosts your reach like magic.
Do these 6 things and suddenly the algorithm stops acting like your enemy and starts working like your hype-man—pushing your content further than you imagined.
Now let me ask you Which of these 6 secrets are you already doing, and which one are you guilty of ignoring? Be honest.
