Why do some organic social media posts attract hundreds of likes and shares, while others, such as “I'm looking for a job,” receive little engagement?
The algorithm vs. human behaviour.
📱 The Algorithm: Social media platforms use signals such as predicted interest, relevance and engagement to determine which posts people see. Even an organic post may have limited reach.
🧠 Human Behaviour: People naturally engage with different content. Entertainment, humour and success stories may attract quick reactions, while posts about unemployment or personal struggles may require empathy, practical help or connections that people are not ready or able to offer.
🤝 The Reality: Low engagement doesn't necessarily mean people don't care, just as high engagement doesn't always translate into meaningful support.
The big question is: Are we struggling to reach people because of the algorithm, or are we failing to turn our online connections into real-life support systems?
An audience can give you visibility, but meaningful connections can open doors.
