I posted a reel asking for support and got much higher views than usual, but they were mostly local. Should I keep doing this type of content?

Absolutely, keep going. Getting significantly higher views (even thousands more than usual) means you’ve discovered content that resonates. Don’t overthink the geographic breakdown or other analytics at this early stage—one reel is not enough data to draw conclusions. Instead, focus on repeating what worked: authentic, direct communication asking for engagement. You don’t need to repeat the exact same words every time, but keep the same authentic energy and call-to-action approach. Increase your posting frequency if possible (aim for one reel per day, or at least every few days), and give the strategy time to compound. You’ve cracked something in the algorithm, so build on that momentum rather than second-guessing the details.
