Algorithms are like that friend who bails you out one minute and then ghost you the next. They can help you reach your audience or throw your content into the digital abyss. This episode looks into the wild world of serving both our lovely audience and those picky, mood-swinging algorithms.

We’re talking about how they can boost small creators or stomp them into the ground based on some arbitrary rules they change on a whim. So, grab your favorite snack and let’s break down the double-edged sword of algorithms – they give us exposure but can just as quickly snatch it away!

Takeaways:

  • Algorithms can be your best friend, but also your worst enemy, so watch out.
  • Knowing your audience is great, but knowing the algorithm is like a second job.
  • Instagram's new algorithm favors smaller accounts, but will it actually help? Who knows!
  • Content might be king, but the algorithm's the one holding the crown, so please bow.
  • If you think you can ignore the algorithm and still thrive, good luck with that!
  • Just remember, if the algorithm changes, your content could dry up faster than your last relationship.
