The Best Algorithm Hack (Not What Is Being Taught By The Main Stream)

(TLDR & free gifts in the bottom, don’t miss it!)

Did you get baited by the title?

I hate writing cheap hooks like that but I did it to prove a point that will be valuable for you.

Our monkey brains are too keen to shortcuts, we all want to get what we want in the shortest amount of time.

And the modern copywriters love to exploit that.

We spend so much time and energy, always looking around for the shortcuts, but the shortcuts never really end up working.

Everyone says “hard work” but no one actually wants to work hard, we work hard because we have to.

Are you looking for the best and most evergreen (will always work no matter the circumstances) algorithm hacks for your content?

Make good content.

Yes, I know it’s hard. It’s a lot of work.

Yes, I know it’s frustrating to put in all that work and end up flopping.

Yes, I know. Because I’ve been there. Many times.

Let me explain why you actually do not want to hack the algorithm.

The algorithm changes too fast for you to keep up

There are thousands of nerds out there in social media companies, wearing their lab coats and sitting in front hundreds on computers figuring out all the date across the entire globe.

They then test and run different ways to promote certain type of contents and creators literally tweaking miniscule bullshit trying to min-max the growth of the company.

Literally that’s all they do. Tweak tweak tweak.

The algorithm will always evolve faster than you. These are skyscrapers full of top tier elite nerds you’re fighting against.

Unless you’re an insider you’ll never be able to keep up.

You might hear from time to time that this “guru” person has cracked the code!

If we’re being honest, they haven’t cracked shit my friend. They’re exploiting your shortcut seeking monkey brain.

You absolutely do not want to artificially boost your posts because you will create an “anti-share” movement under your name.

Don’t do it man. I know it’s tempting to just pay, or use sneaky tricks to get click but hear me out.

There is a time and place for that, and there’s no doubt that it has worked for a lot of people.

The problem is when you see it work for other people, they’re at a different stage and step of their process.

To be precise, buying eyeballs is the last step, the step you take after you have mastered the art of content creation.

Let’s play a game here. Imagine this:

John has creating content for quite some time now but the rate of growth is not up to his expectation.

So instead of figuring out what’s wrong with his content, John immediately assume that it’s because there wasn’t enough people seeing his crappy content.

John then proceeds to spend his hard earned dollars to buy advertisements space, retweets and shoutouts from other creators.

He’s gaining traction alright, or so he thought.

On paper, his numbers are looking good. Lots of new eyeballs for sure.

But what John doesn’t realize is that people are starting to hate him because of how crappy his content is, and he still seems to be everywhere.

He is now screwed for life.

Why?

He’s broadcasted to the whole world that his content is terrible.

He’s reached so many people but that only means more people finding out he sucks and either blocks him right away or worst:

starting to associating a terrible feeling with him, and starts doing this “anti-share” thing.

Whenever someone is curious about John, the “anti-sharer” will quickly shut it down, tell the interested prospect that “John ain’t shit, don’t waste your time.”

He’s now made a lot of terrible first impressions.

Everyone and their moms all know/think John is a crook who only knows how to buy eyeballs for his content because he can’t grow it organically.

It’s a whole different story though, if John’s content were to be absolutely amazing.

That’s why I mentioned that when you do finally decide to spend, it’s when you know your content will be a hit.

And how would you know when your content will be a hit?

You’ll never know for sure, but you can use your past experiments, knowing what kind of content does relatively well in the first place, then attempt to scale it through advertisements.

And even worst than worst:

That person who blocked or became and anti-sharer might’ve liked your content if you were to just improve and grow in your normal pace, instead of accelerating your reach through paid ads or algo hacks.

So What Now?

You want to know if your content is good?

I will be honest and tell you now that I’m not an expert on all social media and sharing platforms.

But I can tell you that I’ve spent a considerable amount of time diddling in Twitter so I can tell you exactly how you can know if your content has struck cord with people.

And it’s quite simple really, because Twitter has the strongest sharing feature out of all the social media platforms.

You simply look like how many people has retweeted your tweet.

That’s it. The metrics are quite apparent. Nothing fancy.

The core principle is the same though for almost all the medias. How many people engage with them?

And by engage I don’t mean clicks. Clicks are easy to get. Just write a clickbait.

I’m talking about liking your post, commenting on your post, sharing your post and even following you because of the post.

There are ways to get eyeballs on your twitter profile and tweets, but that’s beside the point for today’s topic.

The actual evergreen advices to follow, use psychology, not the algo rabbit hole

• Make good content by practicing and listening to feedbacks. This will help you improve immensely.

• Figure out when to post by finding out when your audiences are the most active for your chosen platform.

• Be consistent on post frequency and what time you post. Humans love patterns.

• Try not to post links that lead the user out of the chosen platform.

It makes sense. They want to keep their users staying in their own platform. Instagram doesn’t even allow you to comment links. It’s obvious.

There are much much more advices that make way more sense to follow.

And the principles of them are all banked on normal human behaviors, instead of codes that the scientists decide to put in that month.
