Perhaps one of the biggest human flaws is that we tend to be a bit impatient. We speed date, eat fast food, use emojis instead of words, pay for overnight shipping, and get started with social media without knowing why or what to expect. I get it. The world is moving faster than ever before. New trends and technology seem to appear overnight, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep pace.

It feels like Instagram, more than any other social media platform, is evolving at a dizzying pace. As it continues to roll out new features, updates, and algorithm changes, it can be hard to keep up. That's where the Instagram stats comes in. There's a whole lot of research out there about Instagram — everything from the demographics of its users and its reach, to how negative space affects the performance of your posts (hint, hint: #68).

Some hashtags feel like quaint relics of an internet past. But there’s one throwback hashtag that will never go out of style: #TBT. Maybe it’s because this hashtag comes with nostalgia built right in, but the #TBT (or #ThrowbackThursday) hashtag somehow never gets old. It appeals to people’s deep desire to share their favorite moments from the past.

It’s so funny how many people are concerned about ChatGPT and Bard. Not necessarily from a content creation standpoint but more so how it is going to kill search. When Google announced Bard, their stock fell 7%. It cost them more than 100 billion dollars… that’s a lot of money. Why such a big drop in their stock price ? Google’s ad showed an incorrect description of the telescope used to take the first pictures of a planet outside our solar system, for example.

It’s the 80/20 rule of content marketing: 80% of results come from 20% of your content. This is true for every website and for every content audit I’ve ever done. A small handful of articles pull in a big percentage of traffic and conversions. Just look at your own data. A report of your top posts by traffic probably looks something like this. A few posts bring in a lot of traffic, while most articles drive little or no traffic.

It’s hard to believe that Instagram has been around for less than a decade, given its massive presence in the social media market. Instagram was born from the idea that people wanted to post picture-perfect photographs online for their followers to see. Adding filtering options to the app was all it took to get Instagram to take off as a social media sensation.

It still took equipment and effort to produce videos for social media (if you had internet bandwidth to upload them!), and podcasts were a blip on the radar.
