I tend not to agree with using "boosts"/likes or followers as an indicator for the effectiveness of one's publications because ratings are by far the most impossible thing to remain steady.
Case in point:
Look at all the Movies and TV Shows that have had world class actors, directors, and million dollar budgets to produce. Eventually their ratings always drop low enough that they're taken off the air.
If world class profesionals with multi-million dollar budgets can't get ratings, how much more likely are you?
