6. Encourage Engagement
One of the most overlooked secrets to going viral is this: don’t just post and hope — invite interaction. Ask questions, create polls, challenge your audience, or use captions that spark emotion or curiosity. When people comment, like, save, or share your content, algorithms take notice and boost visibility. Engagement is the fuel for virality. Don’t be afraid to write “What do you think?” or “Tag a friend who needs this!” at the end of your post. The more people participate, the more platforms reward your content with exposure.
