How do Instagram reels go viral?
In addition to aesthetic, well-planned videos, you need the perfect text to pair it with.
If you edit your reels on your phone, you would’ve seen that most video editing apps don’t have unique options when it comes to adding text over your Instagram reels.
You can increase your chances of going viral on Instagram reels by using unique aesthetic text designs that aren’t that common.
Quick tip for viral Instagram reels: After posting a reel, don’t open your Instagram app for the next 30 minutes and see the views increase! This has worked for me quite a number of times.
How many views are viral on reels?
Generally speaking, more than 20-30k views.
Can a reel go viral days later?
Absolutely! My most viral reels are the ones that didn’t get super great traction on the first 3 days but then suddenly it got picked up by the algorithm and the likes didn’t stop coming for a week.
Even my smaller travel account that has barely 400 followers got over 40,000 views on a reel days after I posted it, this one –
What’s the file that gets downloaded after my purchase?
When you buy the set of 35 aesthetic text overlays, a zip folder containing 35 graphics will be downloaded. Unzip the folder to get all of the graphics which are in png format. If the word png is new to you, it means that all of the text designs have a transparent background.
You can put it over a photo or a video and only the design will appear on it as an overlay, without any kind of background which makes it look super cool! You don’t need any designer skills or create, type out a text every time you are making an Instagram reel. Simply use these aesthetic texts.
Where can I use them?
The overlay texts can be used in a variety of ways:
- – Instagram Reels
- – Instagram Stories
- – YouTube Shorts
- – YouTube videos
- – Photo posts
For Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts & YouTube Videos
Which app do you use to edit Instagram reels?
All apps can be used to place these aesthetic text overlays.

Simply, look for the option that lets you add a photo over your video in whichever video editing app you use.
