8 Mistakes Destroying Your Instagram (without you even realizing it) - 912

8 Mistakes Destroying Your Instagram (without you even realizing it) - 912

Author: Brock Johnson August 13, 2026 Duration: 30:12
In today's episode, Brock Johnson breaks down eight mistakes that are quietly hurting your Instagram growth, even if you don't realize it's happening. He covers why deleting underperforming posts is a mistake, since bad posts can teach you just as much as your hits, and why chasing algorithm changes instead of studying your actual audience behavior keeps creators stuck. He also gets into inconsistency in posting and niche, the trap of mono-posting the same type, format, and style every time, and why hunting for hacks like hashtags and trending audio distracts from what actually moves the needle. Brock closes out with two mistakes that trip up even experienced creators: never reusing your best-performing content or reworking your flops, and misunderstanding what actually makes Stories work. He breaks down the three things Stories are built around, watch rate, tap backs, and replies, and walk through exactly which habits, like sharing feed posts to Stories or skipping engagement stickers, are working against you without you knowing it.
