Hey Creators! In 2025, social media algorithms have evolved to value “relationship-based engagement” over raw numbers.That means it’s no longer about how many people follow you — it’s about how deeply they interact with you. Platforms like Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and LinkedIn are now analysing: - Saves & shares → indicators of valuable content. - Comments & replies → proof of genuine conversation. - Relational behaviour → how often you talk with the same people, reply to DMs, or engage back. Even your comment history and reaction speed affect how often your content is shown in feeds. If you’re still posting like a broadcaster — just dropping content and leaving — the algorithm interprets that as low relationship activity. So even with great visuals or ideas, your reach can shrink simply because you didn’t nurture the two-way interaction the platform expects. The 2025 algorithm rewards creators who build micro-communities, not just audiences. What to do (Action Plan) 1. Post with the intent to start a conversation. Instead of “Here’s my new video,” try: 2. Engage in the first 60 minutes. Reply to every comment within the first hour — that engagement spike signals to the algorithm that your post is worth showing to more people. 3. Nurture your regulars. 4. Ask for saves and shares naturally. End posts with: “Save this to try later 🔖” or “Share this with a creator friend who needs it.”
