What types of post boosts do you recommend?

Short Answer: The two types of post boosts that I recommend are either to increase more profile visits or to generate more messages. The best choice depends on the call to action you included at the end of your video.

Full Explanation

When deciding which type of post boost to use, you should align it with the specific action you want your audience to take after watching your content. If your video ends with a prompt like “follow me for more,” then boosting for more profile visits will help direct people to your profile to engage further. On the other hand, if your video offers a resource and encourages viewers to reach out by sending a message, choosing to boost for more messages will increase direct interactions.

Step-by-Step Breakdown

Review your video’s call to action (CTA) carefully.
If your CTA invites followers to visit your profile, choose the boost for more profile visits.
If your CTA encourages viewers to interact by messaging you for a resource or information, select the boost for more messages.
Run the boost according to the chosen objective to maximize its effectiveness.

Real Examples

For example, if your video ends with, “Follow me for more tips and updates,” a boost aimed at increasing profile visits will send more people directly to your social media profile. Conversely, if your video ends with, “Message me to get this free guide,” boosting for more messages will prompt direct communication from interested viewers.

Common Mistakes

Choosing a boost type that does not match your video’s call to action, which can lead to lower engagement.
Using a generic boost without tailoring it to your desired outcome, resulting in wasted budget and missed opportunities.
Ignoring the importance of a clear and specific call to action, making it difficult to decide which boost to use.

FAQs

Q: Can I choose both types of boosts at the same time?
A: It’s best to focus on one type of boost that aligns clearly with your video’s call to action for better results.

Q: What if my video doesn’t have a clear call to action?
A: Without a clear CTA, it’s challenging to pick the right boost, so clarifying your desired viewer response first is important.
