Posts that are relatable, visually appealing, and helpful, such as quick recipes, tutorials, or personal stories, tend to perform best. Reels and carousel posts also get high reach on platforms like Instagram.

Can I mix food content with lifestyle or travel?

Absolutely! Mixing niches like food + travel or food + wellness can broaden your audience and give you more content variety.

How often should I post on my food blog or Instagram?

Consistency is more important than frequency. Start with 2–3 posts a week, and increase as you build a workflow.
