Posting Reels on Instagram: The Ramp-Up Schedule

By Yash Khanna, CEO, Clipt

A posting schedule for clippers ramping up a new Instagram account. Covers the day-by-day ramp: 1 Reel on day one, 2 on day two, 4 on day three, scaling to 6 Reels a day after around a week, with roughly 2 hours between uploads and the same hashtags used every time for consistency and niche association. Names and explains the "lottery tickets" model: every Reel posted is another chance to hit viral distribution, so 6 Reels a day works out to 84 lottery tickets over two weeks, and the more strong attempts an account makes, the higher its odds of a breakout Reel. Closes on why the ramp has to be gradual — jumping straight to 6 a day before the account is ready reads as spam rather than buying more chances.
