Why great recipes are hard to get seen
Cooking is a hugely popular category, so even a brilliant recipe can be hard to surface in a crowded feed where reach depends on an algorithm. Wonderful work goes unseen before the right home cooks ever find it. To grow, you need a platform that puts your videos in front of new audiences and keeps working for you over time. On LYKSTAGE, the content people actually watch gets surfaced, so quality rises to the people most likely to cook along.
