My Boost Is Not Starting or Stuck at X%

🛠️ Problem Description

"Hello, I clicked to start the boost, it shows up under 'Boosted Posts', but nothing happened for 1 hour. Then it suddenly started, but now it's stuck at X% and hasn’t progressed for a while."

If you're experiencing a similar issue, here’s what you need to know.

⏱️ Why Is My Boost Delayed?

Sometimes, boosts do not start immediately due to one or more of the following reasons:

• Queueing System: Your post is in a queue with other users in your pod. Podawaa boosts are distributed over time to look natural.

• User Availability: The system waits for active matching users in your domain. If few users are qualified to interact, the boost may pause or slow down.

• Anti-Detection Algorithm: To avoid LinkedIn penalties, Podawaa uses a smart algorithm that spreads actions with randomized timing.

🔄 Why Is My Boost Stuck at X%?

If your boost is stuck:

• It may be waiting for more members to become available.

• Some users may have reached their daily interaction limits.

• The algorithm may be pausing temporarily to avoid suspicious activity.

✅ What Should I Do?

• Be patient: boosts may take a few hours to fully complete.

• Do not restart or cancel the boost — it may disrupt the algorithm.

• If the boost remains stuck after a long time (e.g., 24+ hours), feel free to:

• Contact our support team.

• Provide the post link and screenshot for quicker diagnosis.

📌 Tips for Smooth Boosting

• Schedule boosts at times when your pod is most active.

• Avoid boosting too many posts too quickly.

• Trust the process: Podawaa is designed to protect your LinkedIn visibility.
