    So you mean to say that you have 4 million + followers?

    The question from me to you would be, how can you NOT earn money from that?

    Anyway, what is your niche I can help you out.

      you can try these sites maybe they can help you get more orders:
      igshoutout.us
      buysellshoutouts.com
      wedofollowers.com

      Also I hope you have more accounts. One thing you can do is create more accounts and give those accounts free shout outs from your own account and grow them faster. If you have only one account and it gets banned for whatever silly reason you would not be happy so I would work on more accounts which will in turn get you more money.

        Thanks man, i really like the first one igshoutouts.us as it looks more trustworthy but im afraid they might steal my information. I have been followed by many famous people like, musicians, sport players, and etc.

        Don't do IGshoutouts or buysellshoutouts or whatever. Those type of IG pages are poor performing, you're page is on a different level.

        Put an email in your profile for business. Look at other photo pages and see who they are promoting. You can create income but it could take a little work but it will be worth it. You can even maybe promote photography type of socks or cool looking socks. think out the box.

        PM me if you have any questions.

    The fact that you have such a massive following on Instagram and that your niche is selling photography creates true resonance! There is a huge inherent potential, yet untapped, that you can capitalize.
    Here are some suggestions:
    Post high quality pictures from your stock images on instagram. Water Mark them subtly.
    Host these images on your web-site (in shutterstock like format)
    Provide clear call to actions in your photos captions i.e. prompt users to purchase high quality stock images from your website and provide link to your website
    Entice your followers with discount offers, contests and giveaways!

    Iterate & Grow to glory!

    Congratulations on your followers! One way to put them to use would be to start affiliating and referring them to products related to Photography. Have you tried Amazon Affiliate?

    I suggest running a good campaign in Instagram can definitely get more money. Make more friends and invite them to like your image. Invite your friends and followers with offers and contest.

    Have a great day...!!!!!!

    Start sharing photos on Instagram and across your other social networks. Check out the Instagram for Business blog for examples of how brands use Instagram.

    I'm much more interested in how you gained that big of a follower community. If I were you, I would make one or more similar accounts, but on a more specific subject, (ie cars, nature, flowers, etc.) and shoutout them via my main account. If you want to give shoutouts for money, it would be smart to have more than one account. Instagram is tricky and you don't want your only account blocked and your followers lost.

    Another thing I see people doing is selling people who buy shoutouts/promos the opportunity to put their link in your BIO which can earn you more or even put the perfect offer of your own product or affiliate product to send people to along with selling shoutouts/promos. Also there are more and more influencer networks popping up, do a search on google for them and get listed with them all. This can get you loads of business. Its not unheard of of people getting 5 figures for a sponsored post from a large account like yours from a big brand.

    I think you should involve yourself in affiliate marketing whereby you refer your followers to products that got to do with photos since you get such likes in just one picture.

    The best way to earn more profit given your large following of 4 million is through Affiliate Marketing. You can also enhance your existing Instagram account through Instagram Marketing for business.
    You can also capitalize on your large following with various growth hacking techniques that includes both Affiliate Marketing and Instagram Marketing.

    If you have 4 million+ followers definitely they trust you. It's time to build relationship with them. Offer them affiliate product or if you have own product then that what you can offer them in the photography niche. The chance is very high to make money.

    Instagram is an online mobile software that is used for sharing images and video clips. Instagram follow the footsteps of Facebook and Twitter and has fast become a very popular social media tool.Instagram seems to be mainly well-known with product based businesses due to its visual nature. Many businesses that are product based such as clothing, jewelry, make up or even food based business have reached success using Instagram. This is because the app allows for images to be submitted and shared of individuals either using or employing these goods. This success is not unique to big brands as many small businesses have been able to control the power of Instagram to engage their clients.

    Hello, I think that, Instagram is one of the best social networks, but not a freelancer site or sell forum! You can use Instagram as a good way in advertising!

    Hey, great work. I'm only on 30k followers so I bow down to you!

    I assume you are selling shoutouts. But have you thought of creating a product related to your niche?

    For example, one Instagram account "ArtofVisuals" sells photography editing software, and set skins for adobe lightbox.

    You can definitely find a partnership with an existing business to help you create the product, and can make a lot more money than you are currently making.

    Cheers!

    Pretty impressive!! The best way to increase followers would be to attach a certain story with each picture which portrays true emotions so that the reader feels that he/she is part of that moment. You should check a Facebook page titled Humans of NewYork. I think page owner name is Brandon and he knows a pretty nice way to put the situation in to words. Therefore try that and check how it turns out.

    Cheers
