Stop posting to your stories wrong. This setting is hurting your views

Transcript

If you're posting to your stories and still getting zero views, I know why, and I should have mentioned it sooner. So before you go and post a video again, you need to check this one setting, because most people don't even know what it is. So here's exactly what you're gonna do. You're gonna go to your stories, and then look up in the top right corner, and you're gonna see a little gear icon. You need to tap that. And then when the screen pops up, you're gonna see a bunch of options, but the only one that you should care about is who your story is shown to. If it's set to friends, then that's your problem. That means that only your friends are going to see your stories. You want it set to everyone, because when it's set to everyone, your stories have a chance to actually get pushed out. And this is exactly why I keep telling you to post it to your stories, because they do work, but not if the setting is wrong. Okay, so now, if you don't see the option there, try it this way. You're gonna go to your profile, and then tap the three lines in the top corner. Go to settings and privacy, and then tap privacy. Right there, you're gonna see who can view your story. So make sure that it's set to everyone. Go check it right now, and if this helped you at all, come back and let me know if yours was set to friends only or was it set to everyone? I'll see you guys on the next one.
