What’s the hardest social media platform to grow on right now?

Youtube

Right now, I’d say Instagram and X are the toughest to grow. Lots of noise, algorithm shifts, and declining organic reach. What I’ve seen working better lately is leaning into platforms with stronger discovery engines, like LinkedIn for B2B or TikTok/YouTube Shorts for reach. Just stay consistent with your content production.

IG is the worst. Fake accounts, scammers, bots etc. TikTok and shorts are good, I get good reach there. Ig just suppresses content.

IG, it’s been getting kinda weird. I feel like the vision for IG isn’t as clear nowadays compared to TT

It really depends on the platform since some are much tougher to crack than others, especially with how fast algorithms shift. I’ve seen people struggle to stay consistent but balance it out by mixing in a little outside support from something like crescitaly, which helps keep things moving while they focus on creating content that connects naturally.Anything is possible if we have a mindset

X or Tik-tok.

Threads is great if you can get a good ball rolling, I’ve found commenting is much more effective than creating posts.

Maybe I’ve gone backwards, but I’d rather find out about a new and interesting business by going for a walk/run and seeing it in person, then going home and googling it. I don’t really trust any social media any more… where I live the hyped-up new businesses are all marketing and crap substance.

Looks like answers are all over the place! It may depend more on your niche and your audience. If your content is mostly videos, go with YT and TIkTok, for example. It’s hard to say which is “easier” and which is “harder” – that’s what i think anyway.,

Probably facebook. Engagement and organic reach have been continuously declining on the platform for the past ten years, unless you make AI slop or pro MAGA content.

Still Youtube… but also the best one if you make it.

I grew from 0 – 1,700 followers on Twitter in four months and now it’s crickets. It might be because I stopped paying for the Blue Check. Not worth it. I needed to grow so I could push my Substack, and that ain’t happening. So I don’t know what to tackle next.
