I Finally Launched — And Here’s What Almost Went Wrong

Well… that didn’t go exactly as planned.
But hey — I finally launched.

Today marks Day 1 of @moneyonlineceo, and while I’m proud, I’d be lying if I said it was smooth sailing.

Why I Delayed My Launch

I was supposed to launch last week.
But I delayed — because I was still tweaking my AI Twin.

You see, I didn’t want a flawless, plastic avatar. I wanted her to be as human as possible.
Wrinkles. Sunspots. Real skin.

I wanted her to reflect the real women behind these brands — not just a digital projection.

But something wasn’t quite right. So I gave myself one more week to get her right.

The 2-Week Algorithm Myth (and My Panic)

If you’ve researched Instagram strategy, you’ve likely heard the claim:
“New accounts get a magical 2-week algorithm boost.”

Supposedly, Instagram pushes your content harder during your first two weeks.

So when I realised I had bought my domain name over a week ago… I panicked.

I thought I had ruined everything.

You see, I purchased moneyonlineceo.com nine days ago. My goal?
Get organised. Start telling the internet who I am. Build the foundation.

Then my mentor told me something critical:

“You need to grab your Instagram handle right now.
People are out there grabbing domains and matching handles — especially when the name includes ‘money’ or ‘online.’”

So I secured @moneyonlineceo right away.

But then I worried:
Did I just waste my 2-week visibility window?

Here’s What I Found Out (That Changed Everything)

✅ Instagram doesn’t care when you register your handle.

It cares when you start sending algorithmic signals.

✅ Your 14-day test window begins with your first content.

The moment you publish your first Reel, first Story, or first post — that’s when your relevance clock starts ticking.

✅ Registering early is actually a smart move.

It shows profile stability to the algorithm. It tells Instagram,

“This creator is aligned, intentional, and building a brand — not guessing.”

Speed Is a Trap. Strategy Wins.

Most people launch fast and messy.

I launched a week later — with purpose.

That’s what Instagram’s algorithm rewards:

  • ✅ A clear category

  • ✅ Keyword-aligned captions

  • ✅ Niche-focused content

  • ✅ DM and Story engagement triggers

  • ✅ Algorithmic consistency

I’m not here for fast followers.
I’m here to build something that lasts.

So no — I didn’t blow my launch window.
