Why it works

The unanswered visual pushes viewers into the caption, which drives read-time and saves. Short clips can carry the hook while the caption carries the value.

Hook formula[Teaser], the full [list/recipe] is in the caption

How to make it

  1. 1Promise the checklist or answer on screen
  2. 2Give only one surprising point out loud, or none
  3. 3Put the full list or recipe in the caption

What’s working in health and wellness this week

How this is measured

  • Every post is compared with its own account's usual reach, not with other accounts. "14x their usual" means the post got 14 times the median views of that account's recent posts.
  • TikTok videos and Instagram Reels are measured on views. Instagram carousels have no view count, so they are measured on likes against the account's usual likes, and say so.
  • A post makes the library at 2x its account's usual or more. A format is a repeatable move (what is said or shown, or how it is edited) that several accounts used in breakout posts. It is listed here once it worked for 3 or more different accounts.
  • Formats rank on how many accounts they worked for and how far above usual, damped so a fluke on one tiny account cannot outrank a format that worked for ten.
