Hi. I’m trying to switch over from making my videos in TikTok to Instagram edits. It seems smoother for the green screening and teleprompter use at the same time.
However, the issue I ran into today was green screening over a video, the videos audio would played during the preview, but would not play when I was ready to film myself over the video.
Just trying to figure out if this is a glitch for me or is that Instagrams design?

So apparently Facebook is testing a limit where some business pages can only make two posts with external links a month unless they subscribe, and I found out because Facebook told me I had already used mine. The only problem was... the post I was trying to make didn't have a link in it. 😂 No URL, no www, nothing clickable. I was just talking about something I had been working on, so at first I figured maybe I screwed something up somewhere and didn't realize it. I went through Meta support and they told me there were no restrictions on my account, but my page was part of this test where non-subscribers can be limited to two posts with links per month. Okay, I think two links a month for a business page is ridiculous, but whatever, at least I understand the rule. You post two links, you hit the limit, Facebook stops the next one. So I tell them again, yeah, but there is no link in this post. That's when they tell me the system can also flag what they called "link-like content," even if there isn't an actual URL. They mentioned things like saying website, using .com, or wording that sounds like you're telling somebody to visit a site. And I'm sitting there thinking... this is a business page. 😂 Of course I'm eventually going to say the word website. That's kind of one of the things businesses have. So I asked how I was supposed to fix it and they basically told me they couldn't remove the limit, couldn't reset it, and I would have to wait until the beginning of the next month. And to top it off, Facebook had already shown me a popup promoting Meta One so I could keep sharing links, and support told me subscribing may help avoid those non-subscriber posting limits. That's the part that really rubbed me the wrong way. I don't have a problem with companies charging for premium stuff. Give me better analytics, scheduling, AI tools, better support, whatever, and if it's worth paying for then fine. But if you're going to limit something as basic as a business sharing links and then charge for more access to it, I feel like the system should at least be able to tell when somebody actually posted a damn link. Because my whole conversation basically turned into: Facebook: You used your two link posts. Me: This post doesn't have a link. Facebook: Yeah, but it looks like it might. Me: Okay... can you fix that? Facebook: No. Me: So what am I supposed to do? Facebook: Have you considered paying us? 😂 I'm attaching the screenshots because I know how ridiculous this sounds without receipts. Has anybody else managing a Facebook page run into this yet? I'm especially curious about the false positive part, where a normal post with no actual URL gets counted as a link post anyway.
Hi everyone! I'm quite new to Reddit, so I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I'm making this post because I genuinely need some advice, and I'm hoping to hear from people who have experience in the hotel industry, hospitality or digital marketing. My dad owns a small hotel, and honestly, business has been really difficult for us. We're currently getting around 2 guests every 2 months, and despite all the effort we've put into promoting the hotel, we're barely seeing any improvement. We've tried promoting our business on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook, creating content, posting pictures and videos of the rooms, facilities and decorations, but our reach is incredibly low. We barely get views, engagement or enquiries, and it feels like no matter how hard we try, nothing seems to work. What makes it even more discouraging is how much effort and money my dad invested in the hotel and it's heartbreaking to see him spending so much money and time on decorating the hotel for different seasons, holidays and special occasions hoping that more guests would come just to end up getting 0 guests almost every month. But the guests just aren't coming. We don't want to give up, but at this point, we're struggling to understand what we're doing wrong or what we should be doing differently. I'd really appreciate some honest advice: 1. What are the most effective ways to attract guests to an independent hotel? 2. How can we increase our visibility and reach on social media? 3. Are there better platforms than Instagram, TikTok and Facebook for getting actual hotel bookings? 4. How can we attract international tourists as well as local travellers? 5. Should we focus more on Google, travel agencies, booking platforms or other marketing strategies? 6. What are some affordable marketing techniques that actually bring in paying guests? I'm not looking for sympathy or free promotion. I genuinely want to learn what we're doing wrong and how we can improve. If you've ever helped a struggling hotel or small family business grow, I'd be incredibly grateful to hear your experience. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
I’ve been researching how Kimchi’s name spread beyond his original trading audience and bitfan’s July 31 profile reports that one of his X posts reached 25.6 million impressions, compared with roughly 500,000 for earlier posts. That’s about 51 times the earlier figure. These are reported impressions, so they don’t tell us how many individual people saw it or became followers. The content described in the article was largely lifestyle photography. My interpretation is that an existing audience already had a story to attach to those images, which gave people something to discuss when they shared them. That makes the distribution worth examining. I’d want to compare the original post with the quote posts that introduced him to other audiences, then look at whether that attention carried into subsequent uploads. The useful question for content work is how someone becomes recognisable outside the community that first knew them. Kimchi gives us a specific post and a substantial reported change in reach to start investigating.
I used to be fairly present online and had a pretty active Twitter account from 2022-2024, but from 2025 onwards I never posted anything there and just left it to rot For context I am a Vocaloid producer, and I want to use that same Twitter account again to promote my songs, but it seems that my reach on that account is basically non-existent, as in my posts don’t even reach a 100 people non existent Any way I can revive my Twitter account? Or is it just doomed to rot forever?
For context, I run three different TikTok accounts, all with over 100k followers. They are in completely different niches, but I use the exact same format and editing style across all of them. To test this properly, I manually posted on one account, and used scheduled posts on the other two—essentially sacrificing those two accounts for science. **The "It's just bad timing" debunk:** Whenever people complain about scheduling, everyone in the comments says *"you're just posting at the wrong time."* So, I spent a full month posting 2 videos daily on the scheduled accounts and constantly rotated the times. I tried 7 AM/PM, adjusted to 8 AM/PM, and so on, until I literally hit every time slot. **The Results after 1 month:** * **The 2 Scheduled Accounts:** Consistently trapped between 1,000 and 10,000 views. No matter what time I posted. * **The 1 Manual Account:** Never dropped below 100k views, with a few videos easily clearing millions. The built-in scheduler is powered by AI, and it's incredibly convenient. But they don't want you using it for free. By artificially throttling your organic reach when you use it, they force you into a corner where you have to buy their paid "Promote" feature to regain your normal viewership. What's wild is that TikTok will never actually admit this, and they won't even put out a straight official statement confirming whether scheduling affects reach or not. Instead, whenever creators complain, they completely dodge the question and give unrelated answers like "fix your posting time"—an excuse that my 1-month experiment completely debunked. They are gaslighting creators to cover up a pay-to-play system.
A usable brand pitch names the product, explains the audience fit, proposes one concrete idea, supplies real proof and asks for one next step. The Example below labels each sentence by its job so you can replace the details without copying invented audience claims. | Example line | Job | What to replace | | --- | --- | --- | | 1. Your skillet fits my weeknight cooking videos. | Product relevance | A product you actually know | | 2. My viewers want fast dinners after work. | Audience fit | Your verified audience need | | 3. I propose one 15-minute dinner video. | Concrete idea | Your deliverable | | 4. Here is one related video I made: [your real link]. | Proof | A real relevant sample | | 5. Are you open to a short outline and quote? | Next step | One low-friction question | Example subject: "One weeknight dinner idea for [brand]". The 15 minutes describes the recipe, not a promised production time or audience result. In an actual pitch replace the bracketed link with your work, but never borrow another creator's performance. If you have no measured audience insight, describe the content you make instead of claiming viewers asked for it. Five lines is a teaching structure, not a magic email length or conversion claim. Example pitch: "Hi [name], your skillet fits my weeknight cooking videos. I make practical dinner content for people cooking after work. I propose one video showing a 15-minute dinner using the skillet. Here is a related video I made: [your real sample]. Are you open to a short outline and quote?" Which line is missing from your pitch?
