Changes I've Made Because of the Algorithm (my experience)
Hello! I wanted to share some of the changes I've been making to my social media with Instagram's and KZread's new algorithm changes. I've seen a lot of stand still with my channel and Instagram accounts because of these changes, and in the month of December, I began implementing some new things into my posting schedule to reach my audience more effectively.

I just think it is really sad that everyone changes what they are doing or loving in some kind of way because of a new algorithm. I have the feeling that social media like it was in the early days is kinda dead since ads and making money is the only thing they try to implement more and more. Maybe we just have to step back to more personal communities before the whole social media thing happened. I would love so much to have this more personal feeling again. I really love your content you don't need to teach anything in my view. Hope you will keep creating content you love 💖

I agree with this. I have noticed with my own art insta, even if small, I have had a hard time reaching my usual follwoers as well, but I also don't wanna change if I do smth I love. It's not fair.
Sara, I've been subbed to you for a long time. Like, a LONG time. I admit that I have stopped watching your videos consistently because I feel I've grown as an artist, and while I can see that you have too... I crave more novelty than I can get from your channel. This isn't a dig are you, nor is it a petition that you change ANYTHING about your art (I would never suggest that to any artist!) I'm just trying to express where I'm coming from as a long time subscriber. When I watch you paint, I feel as though I've watched it before, even if I haven't. I think I have a cap on how many "pretty girl with vaguely similar features" videos I can watch... And it may also be that more people I follow are doing this than before. Please continue to do what makes you happy, and I will check in on your videos now and then... but if you ever want to branch out into different subjects or styles, I would watch the hell out of that. ❤️❤️ You're amazing, no matter what!

I can relate so much to your comment! I'm starting to get tired of artists who have the same face syndrome 24/7. Even if I like their art, their personality, the fact I see the same face and even same expression over and over makes me go a bit bleh.

"Please continue to do what makes you happy" best advice. I keep stressing myself as if YT is going to play a major change in my life if I do more legwork, but I am forgetting that I started YT because of lockdown and quarantine to have fun. "Everyone" says you must find your niche and target audience and focus on that. Yes. Quality is important. But not in the way you make something you really do not want to.

I’ve been dwelling on this for YEARS but the unfortunate fact of the matter is, whatever mathematical algorithm social media sites use, they DON’T. LIKE. CHANGE. Take Pinterest, it’s the perfect example of cookie cutter, copy-paste, content. It’s...tiring.
Same here 🙈! I can only do educational content I MUST NOT DO Vlogs! 😅 My Instagram unfortunately also is the worst! Not only do I paint with all sorts of mediums I also paint all sorts of styles! 😭 So difficult! :(

I love her artwork so much
I just want to hear you talk... While you paint. That's all, you don't have to teach me anything :)
also, I don't think that people don't like your art vlogs! I have seen some other creators trying to broaden their content and then feeling frustrated when their other videos don't do well. but I don't think that's the matter of people not liking them, it just takes time! your audience needs to get used to the different content, and that will also pull people in that maybe enjoy the vlogs but don't care that much for the tips videos? I think if you love making them, you should continue, the audience will follow!
Really appreciate this post not only as someone who’s looking into sharing content online but also as a viewer. Hearing callouts like “subscribe, like and ring the bell” so often have kinda desensitized me to the point where I barely think of those as separate *real* words. I rarely see content that I dislike and yet I often forget to like the videos out of habit. Hearing the effort you’re putting in definitely served as a wake up call to push engagement as a viewer on content I enjoyed. Made sure to like and share this video, as well as make this my first time commenting.
I can’t wait to cuddle up and draw while watching this when I get back home! I love your art btw! Love from japan 🇯🇵

i love watching your videos and how you work! i'm learning digital painting just for fun as a hobbie and always find myself watching your videos :)
All of the advice in this video is really well put and the piece you're working on is gorgeous, but something about this video still kind of makes me sad? Like hearing all of the limits you have put on yourself, and I know that constraints often lead to great changes in our work and that we will naturally constrain ourselves, but still, I don't know. I already know that I have trouble being free when I create since I spend so much time overthinking things and as a kind of newer art channel it makes me scared that I may push myself further down a road of limits if that makes sense. Anyways, regardless your art specifically digitally really has improved so much this year so maybe the restrictions do help since you are as you said forced to excel, but I hope you continue to paint in watercolour or any other medium you feel like painting in even if the algorithm doesn't like it.

I struggle with the same issue tbh. Social media and the anxiety it generates as ruined art for me. I still create and still call myself an artist because I love doing what I do, but being a slave to algorithm to make your dreams a reality is honestly depressing. Suffer-culture already makes us believe that sacrifice is needed to be successful and everyone glorifies the struggle, but no one talks about the harm that comes with it, when you have to give up your health or your dreams.

@@islanddryad Definitely agree. I mean social media is weird because in some ways I have felt pushed to improve my art and create more often which has in general sped up my creation, but it also took away I don't know I guess an innocence from creating? Like I used to just draw and not think twice and now even if I never plan to post a piece I can't help but think about it which takes away that feeling of freedom and looseness. I am trying to reconnect with it though. I have basically given up on making videos about "good pieces" and I just make videos about the process and talk about struggles and well Instagram I still haven't figured out, I barely post at all trying to work on not caring what I post and just feeling free to post whatever I create or whatever I feel like putting out there but at the time being whenever I do that I end up archiving it because I don't like it

recently i read a thread on twitter about social media and algorithm ruining the artistic experience and i couldnt agree more. i study art and while i dont consider myself pretty much an artist i still wish to post my works on the internet, but having to worry about engagement and the need to constantly produce is really discouraging :( i wish there were a healthier way to share my stuff.. but i still have hope in the people who are truly interested in art and are always checking artists profiles to see if they posted something heehe
Love the face of your painting. Looks like my granddaughter’s face in a couple of years. You’re doing a wonderful job. Very peaceful watching you work.
I am glad you have found ways to increase your engagement, but honestly, hearing how much you have had to change makes me feel sad and angry. You deserve to create whatever you feel like creating. Algorithms should not work against our passions!

What doesn't work for you might work for others.
I've been following you on Instagram for more than a year, I think, Sara, and the only reason I saw your post leading to this video was because I decided to do a New Year's edit of whom I follow, clearing out accounts that are no longer posting or I'm no longer interested in. And I realised I hadn't seen any of your posts pop up in my feed recently (that applies to many of the accounts on my follow list!) in spite of there being REGULAR posts and updates. I find the algorithm SO frustrating (and a little concerning, purely as a user) - it seems to affect Facebook, KZread and Instagram equally badly. I'm hoping that this thorough edit to lower my follow count will help refresh my feed. And it seems having visited all the accounts on my list may have helped bring them into my feed again. I'm planning to do a monthly edit this year, because it sure sucks missing out on great content and inspiration. Good luck - don't be discouraged. And SUCH a gorgeous sketch, by the way!
You're videos have always kept me engaged, watching all the way thru when I get the time to, I just appreciate you as a creator a lot. Wish you well for 2021!
Hi sara! I'd find it super sad if you stopped posting watercolor portraits, I enjoy yours so much! I feel like it's difficult, but also very necessary for our personal happiness to find a balance between posting things that we enjoy making and posting what we know will do well on instagram. Only posting/creating what you know people will like is very limiting, and makes you stay in your own bubble, don't you think? I always love it when artists I love try out new mediums/styles, finding new passions and failing in others, it makes following their journey much more interesting! It might not do well in the beginning, but that's just how the algorithm works, what does well is what is expected. but doesn't that hinder personal/artistic growth?
I love this vibe, I love listening to this kind of videos while I draw. Keeps the good vibes while working on something difficult, yet it's very educational. Thank you!
I love your videos & all the content you put out 💖 this video was not only educational but refreshingly honest. I can’t wait to see what you have in store for 2021 & I hope the year treats you well 🥰
Awesome painting, as always :D I love the way you use color in your pieces, it's so loose and dreamy
ah seriously, i really appreciate aesthetic and calming videos so it's devastating to see that so many people look over that! however i find each and every one of your videos amazing whether it's educational or not, they're all helpful or something i look forward to
oh. my. gosh!! i just found out your channel and i am in luv your artttt :D i really like the colors you choose for your pieces (: new sub!!
Excellent vid, thank you so much! It's interesting what methods you've employed to get more out of the various algorithms. Very smart.
Ooooo I love this illustration and this colour scheme is so magical. Your character designs are always so dreamy and inspiring! Thank you for being such a huge influence! Your motivation and artists talks have inspired me to make my own KZread channel for my art. Much appreciation sent your way! 🤩💕👌🏽
Thank you for your content! Your art is beyond beautiful, I learned a lot with your painting. I also appreciate your tips. Hope your channel and Instagram page always grow. Sucess❤
I love this artwork. The reflections in her skin is really unique and well done!!!! Jealous 😊🙂🤗
i always come back to your channel to (firstly) check if you have more tips and tricks on art and (secondly) for your beautiful watercolor process videos. I generally view your content because of your lovely voice-overs. I think people stay for the stories as we learn from those a lot. I like yours because it's honest
I want those art vlogs so bad 🥺❤️ I hope u make one someday 💜 Just finished the video and this painting is gorgeous 💗

Hi Sara, thank you so much for this beautiful video. I love your sparkly girl. She is so gorgeous. Thanks too for all your thoughts and reflections on the past year which was so interesting and helpful. xx : )
I love everything you put out and your art style in general. I always watch every video all the way through. I'm also glad to hear I'm not the only one who watches and likes my own videos as soon as I upload them 😂
I hope you keep being an educational channel because you're a relaxing and aesthetic channel already atomatically because of your voice and your art ✨🎀
Its good food for thought, the consideration that finding one's true niche is inevitably going to have some limitations, which is part of choosing any path. Thanks for all that you do! Beautiful work!
I always love the random content, you never cease to inspire my own mix media artworks!
i really appreciate the tips!!! as someone who has drawn for a good time but struggled to maintain a consistently engaged following, it helped a lot. i took a long break from instagram/all social medias to focus on school a bit more, came back and realized i wanted to keep posting. i'm gonna focus more on watercolor now since that seemed to be very popular with my peeps. thanks so much >o
This has been super helpful, thanks for making these lil videos 💕
Thank you r sharing! I stated just a while ago so I'm more focused on improving my skills, but this are good things to keep in mind when you post regardless
Thank you for sharing! Love your art!
I love your work soooo much and watching you create is so relaxing and entertaining ❤❤❤
So true, I’ve followed you on here and IG for 7 years now and I had stopped seeing your posts on my feed. I had to go and search for you... dam you algorithm!
Thanks for your insights on beating the pesky social media algorithms! I've found having a schedule has helped me grow a lot over the last couple months. I think you should still make the types of videos (outside of educational) that you enjoy making even if they don't get a lot of traction at first. You can slowly broaden your content and reach a new audience who would be interested in your other types of videos.

That's really good advice, i definitely think if you like making something there are people out there who would like watching it, you just have to invest enough time that the videos reach the right people.

I can relate to so so much of what you said ♥ As someone who is heavily relying on social media for getting my work out to the world it has become more and more of a struggle. A few years ago, getting lots of new followers on a daily basis with only sharing my work was something I very much took for granted. Right now, it is a good day if I only loose about 100-200 followers :") It definitely takes a toll on your motivation and mental health if you feel like you grow as an artist, but people either becoming less interested or the algorithm strucks you down. It is sad to limit your creativity and work around that just to be seen. I'm myself someone who works with traditional mixed media and digital art and I don't want to miss that, so I rather set a goal for myself to concentrate on a certain subject matter and coloring style as a red thread for my upcoming pieces. I attend conventions on a regular basis (well not in 2020/2021 obviously) and prints of my sketches and very stylized digital art do just as well as 40hrs+ traditional pieces so it gets even more confusing ohn what direction to got to :") I just really hope that everyone who is struggling will get a chance to be more happy again this year ♥
I just hope that you'll continue to paint and draw things just because you like doing it :)
Thank you for posting this video. It has really resonated with me. I am a very small channel and I have quite frankly given up on trying to work out the algorithms on social media. I try to get engagement on my posts. I do the call outs etc but for some reason it still doesn’t seem to work. People just seem to scroll on past. I’m not an uninteresting person and every now and then I wonder if it’s my age. Then I see other creators my age take off. It’s most disheartening. So I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m just going to stick to creating what I want to create and forget about growing my channel. I will let the fates decide what happens next. Which reminds me I must create a new video. What with the world situation currently and being so fed up getting nowhere I stopped posting videos for a couple of months. Time to snap myself out of it and get on with creating again, even if it is just for me only 😊T x. Ps It was your videos I watched to learn how to use krita
Such a pleasure to watch you sculpt the facial features 💕
this is amazing art work! 🤍🤍🤍🤍
That was an amazing video, thank you so much. I have the same problem, my instagram is still all over the place because I keep changing style, medium and subjects 😅 but I will definitively keep your Tips in mind. Keep up the great work
Sara this is so pretty, you amaze me! Happy holidays !
Thank you SO MUCH. Not only do you teach me new skills and ideas, this was some VERY useful info .
the colors of this piece (among others, but the colors specifically) are GORGEOUS!!
I'm still trying to figure out the ig algorithm. It's a pain how much it's changed recently. But I always watch your videos all the way through because the process is my favorite part! Ngl you experimenting with different mediums is so fun! It inspires me to do the same thing.
I believe that you must create the videos you enjoy. If you want to expand your "reach" consistency is one of the key factors for most algorithms and Instagram has switched up again and time spent looking at a post is another key factor. I enjoy traditional artworks more. I watch the artists I follow all the way through and unless the "ad's" are over the 6 minute mark I will watch them here on KZread. I hope you consider working on the videos you want to make, as well as the ones that do well. I am entertained by instructional videos even though I am knowledgeable in most areas of artistic endeavors. Seeing how an artist works is fascinating to me. I am not necessarily needing to know how you do something, but I am interested in watching you succeed in your process! I look forward to seeing how you resolve these issues and I hope you continue to create all kinds of videos and that the "system" does not penalize you for being an original artist!
Honestly, Sara.... fuck the algorithm. Do what makes you happy and fulfilled creatively, and your fans/audience will find you. We have to stop letting social media control us and our behavior. It's just not healthy. Wishing you all the best for 2021!

I really love this painting it's so beautiful I was in awe the whole video
I'm pretty sure I could watch you paint forever
I've been trying to grow my instagram for several years and I'm still below 500 followers. It got me real down last year and I stopped posting, thought that my art must be bad and tbh, I got real toxic and salty about seeing other artists who's art was still at a beginner level but they got thousands of likes and had like 20.000 followers (a toxic mindset to have and I#m not proud of thinking that way. I never made any rude comments on their posts or told them their art was bad or anything like that, but I definitely thought that kinda stuff). i'm now at a point where I try not to give a shit about the numbers. I post when I feel like it and then move on. it's just not worth stressing about or basing your value on the likes
This video just gave me a burst of inspiration to draw 😍🤩

Love this portrait!! The KZread and instagram algorithm are the worst! I’m trying to get into posting more without it feeling like a chore (since it’s just my hobby rn) but it feels like an uphill battle for sure :/

I really loved how you talked about the character you Were drawing and telling a story about her so I hope that in the future you Would do that .

I’m glad that you’re good at teaching because I need a lot of help ..lol!
I like your work so much inspired me to try digital art
personally I think I noticed you through the watercoloring community. I know a few artists on here who I consider relatively big, but I couldn't tell you how well their videos do on the average. I think it's clear that tutorials are the bread and butter content for artists because I don't think any artist does youtube without one "how to" video. I'm not a youtuber so I couldn't tell you what is the most effective way to go about it, but if I WERE to think of something efficient, maybe it would be to do one general how to video... and then make subsequent videos on the idea. (like a video on highlights or color scheme and then describe your process). As a viewer, I think when creators make "series" content, it gets people excited about the next "episode". OOOR if you decide to work on a large piece maybe turn it into a story time, but make sure to pick out a relevant and poignant art story... or maybe it doesnt need to be about art, it could be something poignant and how it shaped you as you. tl;dr You've made it clear that your art channel is starting to stagnate and now is your time to take risks and be daring... but keep true to art you wanna make.
i love your art! Ive been a fan for such a long time 😁 just wondering what size is the canvas youre painting on? Thanks! Keep making amazing work ❤
2 thoughts I have: you can probably do more content geared to your interests as your audience grows, and please keep doing the studio blogs every once in a while. Doing something you love and feel proud of will keep you motivated.
Commenting fir the algorithm bc you know the vibesss
It's so sad to hear that you've been struggling because of engagement. In my mind you and a few other people are SO good and wonderful artists! I don't really like changing my art in order to appeal to an algorythm or an audience. In the end it's your art. You paint for yourself and for your legacy if you wanna say so xD Ahh, i'm sorry, it's so discouraging to hear you changing your ways to appeal to anyone ;_; I mean, sure you have to comply to the algorithm to stay relevant; it's a double sided sword. (Hhh maybe i'm sounding rude, i really really love what you do is what i"m trying to say. And i'm here for anything you want to do. Go wild ^^) Stay amazing and i hope you have a great new year!!
I’d love to buy this as a print
To be honest, I watch any of your videos because your voice is relaxing and I like to "draw alongside" creators while I do my own work. I love your traditional and digital stuff pretty equally! I think if you wanted to reach out to more people, switching up your drawing subjects could be a start. I know a lot of people don't always want to see women as the subject. I know a lot of artists that really capture my attention do a combination of backgrounds/environments as well as portraits and also tutorials. But do what makes you happy--that's what's more important!
I can’t help but see myself in this piece
i love this video!! i also use photoshop so i was wondering if you could maybe post a tutorial for curves layers ??

I love your artwork so much! Can you please do a couple more procreate videos?
You mentioned something about the work that you put out not being about making the work that makes you happy but the work that suits your audience (I’m definitely flubbing the summary), but I hope that you are happy! What is the use of trudging away at a job if there is not at least a small happiness?
i think that with new content you'll have to build and audience for that from scratch but it's possible to do multiple things at once, look at draw with jazza.
The algorithm sucks, why is there a subscribe button if KZread doesnt even show your videos to your subscribers
this made me honestly kinda sad that you have to restrict yourself so much because of the algorithm! watching your vlogs were honestly my favorite videos from you because i could actually see your face and your personality more! i feel like there is nothing wrong with having a balance like some other people said (educational vids + vlogs every now and then!) my heart goes out to you & good luck with this frustrating algorithm!!

Instagram has ridiculous requirements for getting pushed to others and actually has ridiculous requirements for not being basically shadowbanned. I'm not on it often enough to have a large following but now I'm just not going to use it because the work it would take is legit too much time and effort just to not be thrown into the void. I hope you make changes that you enjoy and not just things for engagement but I do understand. I don't watch a lot of vlogs per se but I do love watching art videos where people talk about whatever they feel like talking about while they work. Vlogs are too distracting for me but I love working along with people. You're tips are fantastic but any video with art tips is going to get more views than just speed paints or even vlogs because art tips are something people go search for. I think it can help to ask what the video is going to be watched for and if thats what you want to make for people. Here's the interview where I got that info about insta for more details: twitter.com/rainylune/status/1341184419957116928?s=20 edit: also people are using insta less because of the changes so that's going to hit you hard too x.x
See my acrylic work gets more interaction unlike my digital art. I also don't post regularly 🤷 maybe once every 2 weeks
I just really wish all of the social media places would stop messing with the Algorithm , you feel like you have figured it out and then they change it.
Just found you today, hi xoxo
Ah yes, this must be one of the videos that youtube guarantees it _very_ diligently delivers to my inbox. Mailing list when?

Honestly the algotithm is so not on my side, I put so much work into my youtube videos and I havnt grown very much at all (I make general vlogs and stuff, old school youtube, younger conan gray and some smaller British creators are my biggest inspiration). It's something I love to do so it's not like I'm going to stop if I don't get any more followers than I have, but it would be nice to grow a bit.. I don't really have a particular audience yet but I'm hoping to build one made of people who really enjoy my content by only making videos I really love and being myself, but that means growth is slow as I don't use clickbaity titles and thumbnails etc. Idk. This is just a load of waffle Haha, but if you're interested in finding a new person to watch and want to support a small creator; I'd really appreciate if you checked out my videos ❤
