People want more followers on Instagram but don’t know how to get them. I’m going to provide you with some tips to improve your engagement and popularity on Instagram. The trick is all about timing and visual, once you master that, the likes, comments, and followers will follow. The three things people care about are a layout, likes, and content, I’m going to breakdown these key factors and what you can do to finesse the system.
Layout:
Your Instagram handle is the attention grabber. People see the name and want to see the life of the person behind it. Once you have a unique name you have to keep their attention. Have your most notable work in the bio. If you’re an artist add that, a photographer, etc. Your bio adds value to them hitting the follow button, but who goes on a profile without looking at the content.
Having a theme for your page is essential, rather it be a color scheme or just the way you pose, it needs to be consistent. An attractive layout will get followers even if you only get one hundred likes on a photo.
Likes:
Hashtags will become your best friends on social media because they get you discovered by those people who are looking for a specific thing. And thanks to the discovery page your photos have a higher chance of being featured.
Posting photos in the evening are important also, people are getting off of work, are done with classes, or watching TV around that time and will be on Instagram. Your photos will get more likes when posting after 6:00 pm and before 10:00 pm.
Content:
Who is your target audience? Are you an influencer? Are you a content creator? Make sure your profile reflects your greatest work. You never know when the next collaboration is going to happen.
More people will gravitate to you if you can do something for them, and vice versa. Social media is a great platform to get jobs, exposure, and connections to your career. Utilize it as a market, and if you have a business, your profile should reflect whatever skills or abilities you have.
