Quick tactical checklist

  • Pin one strong post and drive initial views through exchanges to improve algorithm signals.
  • Use follow & engage loops (earn credits → redeem → repeat) for steady follower growth.
  • Pair exchanges with organic outreach (comments, niche groups) for retention.
  • Always prioritize engagement quality over raw numbers — retention matters.

Risks & best practices

Many exchanges are fine for early traction but avoid automated bots or services that violate platform policies. Always read Terms of Service — abuse can lead to shadowbans or account action.

Tip: Use exchanges to jumpstart momentum, then shift budget/time into content and community to keep growth sustainable.
