How Social Media Algorithms Work to Rank Content and Boost Your Online Reach

Instagram's social media algorithm explained works through multi-stage filtering that gathers posts from followed accounts, scores roughly 500 posts using machine learning predictions, and ranks them according to expected engagement. Content ranking favors Reels most heavily, followed by carousels and Stories, while saves count three times more than likes in determining reach. Key signals include watch time, where videos retaining viewers for at least 70% of duration rank twice as high.
