Instagram » How to?

I'd suggest before getting more 'products' - you use the forum search and look up previous threads about Instagram - there are quite a few such threads and lots to learn from them.

You need to build your profile. You should post quality content that would make your profile interesting. Follow relevant people that are in your niche and get them to follow you by interacting with them. Use hashtags accordingly and properly caption your photos too.

Understanding hashtags is key to growing on instagram.
Plus, don't forget there are ways to semi-automate the process, whereby you can get scripts to automatically like and follow based on the hashtags you specify. Yes, this is kind of like cheating, but it saves a lot of time and as long as you post genuinely useful content and interact with people, then you're just accelerating the process and saving yourself some time. (But still, some would frown on using bots, I guess..)

The most misunderstood concepts in instagram account are:

- you have to follow/unfollow/follow back to grow: you soon get banned

- you have to buy likes ---> banned

- you have to full your pics of hashtags ---> get banned and it's useless.

Most of the users think that posting personal stuff is good: if you're not kim kardashian or dan bilzerian noone cares of you.

What you have to do is going to Explore Page (you find that page in you instagram app by clicking the mangnyfing lens) and here are the most treending pics selected for your niche, based on what you like or not.

These are not copyrighted.

You can download the most trending ones and upload them again in your instagram account, by credit the owner with something like "Photo by: @name" so everything is fine.

Write a caption and less than 30 hashtag but use sometimes 20, 25, etc., NOT THE SAME ONE.

In the early 90 days your account is checked by instagram, if it's new, and you have to take care of it.

By reuploading and credit the owner, you have a good chance to appear in the explore page, and receive a lot of likes, engagement and followers.

OF course not in the same day you reupload.

But sooner you will see your account growing fast.

Here's one that always works for me. Collaborations. I always work with other instagram accounts to help each other out. It helps in reaching more audience, providing more followers and engagement.

Instead of spending money right from the get go, I suggest you go to youtube and search around for the TONS of Instagram basic training materials there

You only need to SCAN the videos to get a CLEAR understanding of what IG marketing is ROUGHLY about.

You should then view more SPECIFIC videos.

From there, you can OPT to buy IG marketing plans/blueprints or coaching

Look for social proof

Look for actual case studies

Why do things this way?

1) So you don't get SCAMMED by hyped materials

2) So you can get a clear idea of WHICH IG paths to take-there are SEVERAL!

I wish you the greatest success

Try youtube.
search each stage you stuck in.
You will get tons of info.

You can follow these Instagram tips:

1.) Follow relevant accounts
2.) Post regularly
3.) Use hashtag wisely

The key is the same as the normal marketing concept, you get noticed by your target group. That's why I recommend you to follow others in your Industry. Once you get their attention you will be likely to get followed back. If you got followed back from those irrelevant fields, most of the time they will ignore the post and finally unfollow you.
