Facebook bought Instagram for a billion dollars. That’s a lot of money but now Instagram generates over a million dollars a day in ad revenue. What a great deal. It’s so good that everyone now wants more Instagram followers and I’m going to teach you how to get more followers fast.
1. Good Profile Image
So step one is to make sure you have a really good profile image. Something that’s professional and looks good. Just having a profile image isn’t good enough. You need to put in your name and description.
Make sure your description is catchy and to the point to give people a reason to follow you. Your description should also match the type of content that you’re going to post on your page. That way people know who they’re going to be following and why.
2. Content
Once you’ve done that make sure you create amazing, beautiful images. If the images aren’t good you’re not going to do well at all. I don’t care what kind of marketing gimmicks you run, you’re not going to do well unless your photos are amazing and that’s the beauty about Instagram.
You can actually see what’s done really well in the past. Just search using hashtags or keywords and you’ll see all the photos within your space. The more visual the photo is, the better off you are.
3. Regularity
In addition to that you need to post on a consistent basis. If you post once a week you’re going to get more likes for photos and that’s what everyone wants right? But what you’ll also notice is that you’re not growing your follower account fast enough.
You’re actually better off if you post once to twice a day. Keep a consistent schedule. Make sure that if you post every day at 10 a.m., you keep up with it. If you also want to post that night time like 6 p.m. do it twice a day 10 a.m. in the morning 6 p.m. at night. Those are two good time slots that work really well.
4. Description
You’ll also want to use a really long description. You see anytime you add a photo to Instagram you’re able to add some text. The more thorough your text is when people do searches on Instagram, the more people will find your photos. You can also add a hashtag use a handful of hashtags to your photo.
I know some people go overboard and they like adding like 30 hashtags per post. I think that’s a bit crazy and tacky. I don’t like doing that but if you want to add 5 or 10, that’s not a problem at all. It’s far better than using 0 right?
5. Follow 30 People per hour
Last but not the least, make sure you follow 30 people per hour you can technically follow more people per hour but then it gets too spammy. You’re also going to hit Instagram filters.
Instead follow 30 people within your space per hour or 30 people that interest you. As you do that you’ll notice that a lot of people will follow you back and as they follow you back and you start posting new photos, not only will you get more likes, you also get more comments. When you get more comments make sure you respond to people. The more people you engage with and respond with the more likely that they’re actually going to share your photos with other people.
It’s that simple. If you use these techniques you’re sure to get more followers. Have I got you thinking? What strategies do you use?
