Edward Sturm
About this episode

E380: Many of the top social media algorithms got their fundamentals from Google's algorithms.

Instagram is no different.

Attributes that are important to Instagram are shared by Google, X, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, and more.

In this episode of the show, I break down trust attributes for Instagram's algorithm and relate that to Google, Reddit, YouTube, TikTok, and X.

Understanding what's valuable to one algorithm helps you understand the rest of them, helping you consistently achieve great organic results.
