Strategy summary

What's working, what to fix, and what to ship next.

TL;DR

Viral listicle carousels are the growth engine, with post 19 exploding to 344k likes and 13k comments on an emotional hook, outpacing averages by 10x. Posts 4 (204k likes) and 27 (239k) confirm top-rated and genre lists crush it, leveraging carousel swipes for dwell time in this 744k follower anime niche. The One Piece promo text appended universally ties into shonen hype without diluting hooks. 2.3 posts/week starves the algorithm amid daily bursts that yielded 30 posts but inconsistent results, including 10 posts stuck at 3 likes signaling tests or suppression. Low cadence leaks momentum; high-engagement pillars dominate 80% of feed value yet need consistent volume. Evening weekend posts align with top performers for max reach.

Working

5
  • Listicle hooks like Highest Rated drive 100k+ likes on posts 3,16,25.
  • Carousel format sustains engagement across 30 posts.
  • Genre and binge pillars spark comments up to 2k+ on post 16.
  • Appended One Piece news adds evergreen shonen appeal.
  • Questions in posts 8,29 boost comment ratios.

Risks

5
  • Boost cadence beyond 2.3 posts/week to feed algorithm consistently.
  • Drop or refine posts getting only 3 likes like 0,1,7.
  • Vary One Piece text to fit hook better instead of pasting identically.
  • Reduce repetition in low-engagement hooks.
  • Monitor for shadowbans on test posts.

Ship next

5
  • Ramp to 7 posts/week focusing on top pillars like lists and binges.
  • Schedule Thursday-Saturday in 6-10pm windows for peak engagement.
  • Test 2 new hooks weekly on high-performers like post 19 style.
  • Analyze low-like posts (0,1,7) for shadowban and fix.
  • Cross-promo with @geekbeam.tv on every third post.
