One of the most important things to look at is ‘sends per reach,’” Adam shared. “Out of the people who saw it, how many sent it to a friend?”</p><p>Of course, this is not the only way brands and creators find success on the platform — there are thousands of ranking factors, or ‘signals,’ that the algorithm takes into account.</p><p>These signals are weighted differently in different parts of the Instagram app. Because, contrary to popular belief, there is no one algorithm to rule them all when it comes to <a href="https://buffer.com/library/instagram-small-business/"><u>Instagram</u></a>.</p><p>In fact, according to <a href="https://about.instagram.com/blog/announcements/instagram-ranking-explained/"><u>a blog post</u></a> shared by the Meta-owned platform, there are “a variety of algorithms, classifiers, and processes, each with its own purpose” to make sure IG users see the content that most interests them.</p><p>“We want to make the most of people’s time, and we believe that using technology to personalize everyone’s experience is the best way to do that,” <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mosseri/?hl=en"><u>Mosseri</u></a> wrote in the update.</p><p>Now, a “variety of algorithms, classifiers, and processes” may sound a little confusing, but fear not — it’s not quite as intimidating as it sounds.</p><p>In this article, I’ll break down exactly how the platform ranks content and share tips for increasing your chances of getting your Instagram content in front of more people. In short: everything you need to know about the Instagram algorithm/s.</p><h2 id="different-parts-of-instagram-are-ranked-by-different-algorithms"><strong>Different parts of Instagram are ranked by different algorithms</strong></h2><p>You’ll find a lot of opinions about how certain types of content are ranked higher on the platform than others.</p><p>A popular one: “<a href="https://buffer.com/library/instagram-reels-instructions-and-ideas-for-small-businesses/"><u>Instagram Reels</u></a> perform better than feed posts.” While that <em>may</em> be true in some cases (I’ll unpack why down below), statements like that give the impression that new posts and reels are weighed against each other by a single algorithm, and reels are given a leg-up — which is not true.</p><p>Instead, reels and the feed (and <a href="https://buffer.com/library/instagram-stories/"><u>Instagram Stories</u></a> and <a href="https://buffer.com/library/instagram-explore-page/"><u>Explore</u></a>) are all controlled by a different algorithm. Why? People’s behavior tends to differ in different areas of the app. “People tend to look for their closest friends in Stories, use Explore to discover new content and creators, and be entertained in reels,” Mosseri explains.</p><p>With that in mind: here’s how it works.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcU7Wdi9x4TTu-iZNfo2YuS2Z2yOUMiXWBMPDNK6Bc8_vvn_QgUwpAGkAAd2JkLB5Cd33CdD8tKEEY74W4gb8Yn0vFyUHNYKcC8_19Re5zZgFr_c5jn_OSq2ozijHpOpIWJr3-W1AjD8mGhaamVYKSBp8Y?key=AB5BmOrSMF2IaYh_gnDICw" class="kg-image" alt="Instagram Algorithm" loading="lazy" width="1600" height="796"></figure><h3 id="instagram-feed-algorithm"><strong>Instagram Feed algorithm</strong></h3><p>When people talk about how the Instagram<a href="https://buffer.com/social-media-terms/algorithm"> <u>algorithm</u></a> works, it’s usually this area of the app they’re referring to: it’s the first feed most people will see when they open the app.</p><p>The Feed is a combination of videos, photos, and<a href="https://buffer.com/library/instagram-carousel/"> <u>carousels</u></a> (multi-photo posts) posted by anyone you follow, peppered with posts by other accounts Instagram users may be interested in, and sponsored posts tailored to them.</p><p>Instagram takes a staggering number of ranking factors into account when organizing feeds. “We call these ‘signals,’ and there are thousands of them,” Mosseri says. Here is a breakdown of the most important signals, in order of importance.</p><ul><li><strong>Activity.</strong> Posts the user has liked, shared, saved, or commented on.</li><li><strong>Information about the post.</strong> How popular a post is (how many people have liked it and how quickly people are liking, commenting, sharing, and saving a post) and more information about the content itself (when it was posted, and what location, if any, was attached to it).</li><li><strong>Information about the person who posted.</strong> “This helps us get a sense for how interesting the person might be to [the user], and includes signals like how many times people have interacted with that person in the past few weeks,” Mosseri says.</li><li><strong>The user’s history of interacting with someone.</strong> This is pretty straightforward, and ties in with some of the above points — whether or not the user has engaged with this poster before, and how.</li></ul><p>With all that information, Instagram makes a series of “educated guesses” about how likely a user is to interact with a post, Mosseri says.</p><p>“In Feed, the five interactions we look at most closely are how likely you are to spend a few seconds on a post, comment on it, like it, share it, and tap on the profile photo. The more likely you are to take an action, and the more heavily we weigh that action, the higher up in Feed you’ll see the post.”</p><div class="kg-card kg-callout-card kg-callout-card-blue"><div class="kg-callout-emoji">💡</div><div class="kg-callout-text">It’s pretty common knowledge that Instagram will remove content that goes against its Community Guidelines, but did you know that it also down ranks content that seems “likely” to go against them, even if that hasn’t yet been confirmed? <a href="https://help.instagram.com/1615012435678060"><u>You’ll find more info on that here</u></a>.</div></div><h3 id="instagram-stories-algorithm">Instagram Stories algorithm</h3><p><a href="https://buffer.com/library/instagram-stories/"><u>Instagram Stories</u></a> — photos and videos that disappear 24 hours after posting — offer creators and businesses a way to appear on top of followers’ feeds as soon as they open the app.</p><p>As soon as you post a story, your account profile picture will appear right at the top of the app in what IG calls a ‘Stories Tray.’ Arguably, however, it may be even harder for brands to appear in this section of the app, given how IG views this as an area where “people tend to look for their closest friends.”</p><p>Here are the signals the platform takes into account for the Instagram Stories algorithm to show users the most relevant content:</p><ul><li><strong>Viewing history.</strong> How often a user has viewed an account’s Stories (the more often they view a certain account’s Stories, the more likely they are to appear first).</li><li><strong>Engagement history.</strong> How often a user engages with that account’s stories, such as sending a reaction or a response.</li><li><strong>Closeness.</strong> The user’s relationship with the author overall and how likely they are to be friends or family.</li></ul><p>Again, these signals will be used to “make a series of predictions about stories you’ll find more relevant and valuable,” Mosseri says, “including how likely you are to tap into a story, reply to a story in DMs or move on to the next story — to determine which stories will be shown higher in your Stories Tray.”</p><h3 id="instagram-explore-page-algorithm">Instagram Explore page algorithm</h3><p>This is where things get interesting for creators and brands users don’t already follow. Explore (accessed by tapping the explore tab magnifying glass at the bottom of the app) was designed to help users find new accounts. </p><p>If you’re a brand or creator, read: <strong>help new audiences find <em>you</em>.</strong></p><p>This grid-style feed is made up of photos and videos a user is likely to be interested in based on past activity: posts they’ve liked, saved, shared, and commented on.</p><p>Here are the signals that play into the Instagram Explore page algorithm.</p><ul><li><strong>Information about the post.</strong> Like with Feed, Instagram looks at how popular a post seems to be. “These signals matter much more in Explore than they do in Feed or in Stories,” Mosseri says.</li><li><strong>A user’s activity in Explore.</strong> Posts a user has liked, saved, shared, or commented on and how they’ve interacted with posts in Explore in the past. If users have engaged with a specific post found via Explore previously, the algorithm will show them more like that.</li><li><strong>A user's interaction history with the poster.</strong> It’s likely the post was shared by someone they don’t know, but if a user has interacted with them previously, it tells IG they’re pretty interested in their content.</li><li><strong>Information about the person who posted.</strong> Here IG takes into account how many times people have interacted with you recently across all your content, “to help find compelling content from a wide array of people”.</li></ul><p>Here’s an example Instagram uses <a href="https://about.instagram.com/blog/announcements/shedding-more-light-on-how-instagram-works"><u>here</u></a>, which I found really helpful in making sense of all of the above:</p><p>“Let’s say you’ve recently liked a number of photos from San Francisco’s dumpling chef Cathay Bi (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/dumplingclubsf/"><u>@dumplingclubsf</u></a>). We then look at who else likes Cathay’s photos, and then what other accounts those people are interested in.</p><p>Maybe people who like Cathay are also into the SF dim sum spot<a href="https://www.instagram.com/dragonbeaux/"> <u>@dragonbeaux</u></a>. In that case, the next time you open Explore, we might show you a photo or video from @dragonbeaux.”</p><div class="kg-card kg-callout-card kg-callout-card-blue"><div class="kg-callout-emoji">💡</div><div class="kg-callout-text">The Explore page is also where you’ll find Instagram’s search function — which can be an important tool in your Instagram marketing kit. Here’s <a href="https://buffer.com/library/instagram-search/"><u>our comprehensive guide to Instagram SEO.</u></a></div></div><h3 id="instagram-reels-algorithm">Instagram Reels algorithm</h3><p>The Instagram Reels algorithm works similarly to the Explore page. The reels feed (accessed by tapping the video icon at the bottom of the app) is designed to help users find new brands and creators. </p><p>The signals IG takes into account here are:</p><ul><li><strong>A user’s activity.</strong> Things like which reels they’ve liked, saved, reshared, commented on, and engaged with recently.</li><li><strong>A user's interaction history with the poster.</strong> As with Explore, it’s likely the reel was shared by someone they don’t know, but if a user has interacted with them previously, it tells IG they’re pretty interested in their videos.</li><li><strong>Information about the reel.</strong> These are signals about the content within the video such as the audio track or visuals in the video, as well as popularity.</li><li><strong>Information about the person who posted the reel.</strong> “We consider popularity signals such as number of followers or level of engagement to help find compelling content from a wide array of people and give everyone a chance to find their audience,” Mosseri says.</li></ul><p>On that first point above: let’s come back to Adam Mosseri’s comments on Colin and Samir. The reels feed is a particularly important area if you’re looking to grow your audience — since it’s all recommended content rather than exclusively people you follow. </p><figure class="kg-card kg-embed-card"><iframe width="200" height="113" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HDzhA_UFrnA?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen="" title="An honest conversation with the CEO of Instagram"></iframe></figure><p>Of all the engagement activities listen above, shares via DMs is the one that carries the most weight. The more your post is shared in this way, the better it will perform. </p><p>“Short-form video is so symbiotic with connecting people with their friends,” Adam told Colin and Samir. “Part of our [Instagram’s] reason to be is to connect people with friends.”</p><p>In other words — optimize your content to start conversations. What entices your Instagram followers to share your reel with someone they care about? Is it something relatable? Helpful? Funny? Thought-provoking? No audiences are the same, and it will take some experimenting to figure out what works. </p><p><strong>Recommendation Guidelines on Explore and reels</strong></p><p>Instagram wants to minimize the chances they’ll recommend content to someone that they may find offensive. To that end, they’ve published detailed<a href="https://help.instagram.com/313829416281232"> <u>Recommendation Guidelines</u></a>.</p><p>Posts that go against these guidelines may not violate their Community Guidelines and are technically allowed on the platform, but won’t appear on the Explore page.</p><p>Some examples of things that go against IG’s Recommendation Guidelines are anything that depicts/discusses self-harm, suicide, eating disorders, or violence; is sexually explicit or suggestive; promotes the use of certain regulated products, like tobacco; or could be considered misinformation.</p><h3 id="why-the-instagram-algorithms-are-a-good-thing">Why the Instagram algorithms are a good thing</h3><p>Rather than sharing Instagram algorithm hacks that don’t help you in the long term, let’s talk about why Instagram’s algorithms are actually great for users, creators, and businesses alike.</p><p>When <a href="https://buffer.com/library/social-media-sites/"><u>social media platforms</u></a> move away from a chronological feed, there’s always a public outcry. But showing recent posts in chronological order isn’t all that great. The <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/18127267084026749/?ref=buffer.com"><u>Instagram Creators account reports</u></a> that since switching to the new feed, “the average post is now seen by 50 percent more followers than it did with the chronological model.”</p><p>The Instagram algorithm change to a ranked feed is a win-win. With the help of machine learning, the algorithm ensures that users see content they’re most likely to be interested in, and that means business accounts are more likely to find their target audience (with the right <a href="https://buffer.com/library/social-media-marketing-strategy/"><u>social media marketing strategy</u></a>).</p><p>As long as you are creating engaging, relevant, and timely content, the Instagram algorithm is actually an advantage to you. It helps to get your great content in front of more people than when posts were arranged reverse-chronologically.</p><h2 id="instagram-algorithm-faqs">Instagram algorithm FAQs</h2><p>Some frequently asked questions about how to work with the Instagram algorithm and things that might affect your content performance:</p><h3 id="are-photos-or-videos-preferred-by-instagram%E2%80%99s-algorithms">Are photos or videos preferred by Instagram’s algorithms?</h3><p>Technically, no. Instagram doesn’t give extra weight to either videos or photos. However, if the data shows that a certain user prefers to engage with videos over photos, then that specific user may see more video content in their feed.</p><p>Another big caveat here: while Instagram doesn’t prioritize video by default, Buffer data shows that videos tend to get more engagement on Instagram than other content types. </p><p>In <a href="https://buffer.com/library/best-content-for-social-media/#the-best-content-to-post-on-instagram"><u>our analysis of more than 5 million Instagram posts</u></a>, video came out tops, followed by carousels, then images. </p><h3 id="does-posting-too-frequently-impact-ranking">Does posting too frequently impact ranking?</h3><p>Instagram accounts aren’t down-ranked for posting content frequently.
