AUDIENCE GROWTH & ENGAGEMENT

Nobody Likes or Comments on My Posts—Until I Did This One Thing

A gentle trick that makes a big difference (and doesn’t require going viral).

You finally post something.

You took your time writing it, picked a nice photo, maybe even double-checked it before hitting "publish."

And then… nothing.

No likes. No comments. Not even a quick emoji from your cousin.

It’s hard not to wonder, “Is anyone even seeing this?”

If that sounds familiar, you’re in good company. This happens to so many kind, thoughtful women who are just trying to show up and share what they love.

The good news? There’s one simple shift that can change the way people respond — and make posting feel a lot more encouraging.


First, You’re Not Doing Anything Wrong

Social media can be weird.

Sometimes your post just gets buried. Sometimes people are busy. And sometimes… people are watching quietly without saying a word.

(Yes, even when it feels like no one’s out there, someone is probably nodding along silently.)

But there is something that helps your posts feel more personal — and more likely to get a little love.


Try This: Talk to One Person

Instead of thinking about posting to "everyone," try writing to just one person.

Not the whole internet. Not all your followers.

Just one real person you care about — maybe a friend, a customer, or someone who’s asked you questions before.

Picture her reading your post and think:

  • What would I say if I were texting her?
  • What would make her smile or feel seen?
  • What’s something helpful or kind I could share?

When your words feel like a message to a friend, people notice. They lean in. They feel connected.


It’s Simple, But It Works

Because it feels more human.

Because you’re not overthinking — you’re just being yourself.

And because we all crave connection, not perfection.

You don’t need to go viral.

You just need to feel like you again when you post.


One More Tip: Make It Easy to Reply

Sometimes people want to respond… but don’t know what to say.

Try ending your post with a light, friendly question like:

  • “Ever felt that way too?”
  • “What’s your go-to pick-me-up?”
  • “Tell me your favorite in the comments!”

Even something as simple as, “Tap a heart if this made you smile,” can gently invite people to connect.


What Matters Most

The numbers will come and go.

But the real win? Feeling proud of what you shared — and knowing it came from the heart.

Keep showing up. Keep sharing. Even when it’s quiet.

Because one day, someone will message you and say,

"Hey, I’ve been following you for a while — and I love what you post."

And in that moment, you’ll be so glad you didn’t give up.

You’re doing better than you think.

And your words matter — more than you know 💛
