    Many people are doing it, and many big brands are doing it. It is effective but it depends upon the niche itself. Strategy is the usual.
    Get targeted followers by following people in your niche. Follow the people your followers follow. Regularly keep on adding unique photos of your products. Don't add boring pictures make them interesting. Use a lot of hashtags and great descriptions.

    you can add your website address in your about me. If your pictures impress the readers then they'll e checking out your website and you can get some decent traffic.

    Thank you for your answers guys..

    A question..

    were you able to use your desktop computers to upload images or videos on Istagram? It's uploading platform that runs for mobile only. But do you have a strategy on how you can use your desktop on doing such things?

    Yes, you can upload images or videos on Instagram from your desktop.
    But, for it you have to download and installed a Bluestack software tool that is very important for desktop if you are looking to run an Android application.

    As, Instagram is a mobile app, hence for running it from desktop one should have to install Bluestack in their system.

    Hey

    I noticed in my posts above I discussed photos instead of videos. I guess I must have misread earlier, nevertheless the same principle goes for videos too. Yeah, you can install BlueStack and use instagram from your PC, but it's not ideal. Using it from android is the best option.

    I tried using Bluestacks and installed instagram on it.. Unfortunately it detects that i'm using a proxy when i'm registering on it.. so wasn't able to use Instagram yet.. Have you ever had an issue like this?

    Check out he account @flavorgod and their new account @flavorgodvideos on Instagram which sells seasonings. The seem to be using instagram very effectively and I think they are making money also(possibly lots of money). They are doing an awesome job of building their brand on Instagram. Also I see tons of clothing shops on Instagram selling teen and pre-teen clothes. You can find them under hashtags - #tweens and #outfits among others.
