Strategy summary
What's working, what to fix, and what to ship next.
TL;DR
Carousels crush it with post 0 at 288k likes, outpacing the reel at 213k. Visual landscapes hook the 9.3M followers without wordy captions, proven by 3.2k comments on post 0 versus 1.6k on post 1. High engagement shows scenery sells wanderlust solo. Zero posts per week is the momentum killer, starving a massive audience dormant since sparse 2024-2025 drops. Revive with consistent visuals to reclaim top-feed dominance.
Working
5- Carousels lead likes at 288k and 204k on posts 0 and 2.
- Strong comments signal emotional connection.
- Simple captions like post 1 boost relatability.
- Visual focus maximizes broad appeal.
- Thursday posts hold steady engagement.
Risks
5- Boost frequency beyond 0 posts weekly.
- Add captions to empty posts for context.
- Extend beyond Iceland for variety.
- Balance reels with more carousels.
- Engage comments to lift algorithm.
Ship next
5- Post a landscape carousel every Monday at 6pm.
- Test short location captions on next 3 reels.
- Ramp to 5 posts per week starting next month.
- Credit UGC in future reposts if used.
- Analyze older posts for hidden patterns.
