    Follow other people in your niche. Comment on their work. Ask them questions, so they recognize you and follow you back. Use relevant hashtags. I did all this, and my followers increased pretty fast.

    things that worked for me:
    follow other people,
    comment for other people,
    ask pages with similar target market for ads,
    post more often

    these last two items were most efficient, number of followers added per day is directly related to number of posts on that day

    I've seen cheap shoutouts over at Fiverr, currently testing a few gigs. I will let you know if any of them panned out.

    The best and fastest way to get real followers is by shoutouts. You can use the search feature to find accounts in your niche which have like 50k-100k or more followers and check their instgram accounts bio and you may see and email or Kik username(kik is an instant messaging app) that may say - Business/Promos. These people sell shoutouts. email them and ask their rates and they will charge a fee to post your pic to their account and ask their followers to follow you. If people like your account they will follow you. This is how you get real followers. fake followers are completely useless so don't waste your money on those sites offering tons of fake followers for cheap.

    Like the person above mentioned you can get hem cheap on fiverr. Here are a few other places that offer real shoutouts. But I think if you find the accounts and contact them direct it may be a little cheaper.

    Buy some bot followers, do follow for follow, use tons of hashtags, like other people's photos. Everything should be related to your niche of course.

    And yeah buying shoutouts is also a good way.

    - Follow relevant people
    - Make comments that stand out but are useful
    - Like images that are relevant (like consistently but not overly)
    - Create unique content with proper hash tags
    - If your content is useful on instagram, ask for a regram.
    - If your content is useful it's ok to ask for people to follow.

    Hashtag works best on Instagram. Use also hashtag when looking for people relevant to it.
    Follow them and ask a follow back, if not then just leave a comment or ask a question.

    Commenting on people's posts is probably the best way to gain more followers. You show interest in their posts, they will be curious to see who you are and chances are they will reciprocate by leaving comments and following you!

    All these tips seem really helpful. I had a ton of success in the past just going on the popular page and simply liking a bunch of those pictures and commenting on some. Gonna give some of these tips you guys have shared a shot and also use Instagress and see how that goes.


    Wish me luck!

    One great way is to find similar accounts in your niche and follow their followers and lots will follow back if they like your account. Also I have been using instagress.com lately to automate my liking, following and commenting and it seems to be working great. On some of my accounts I gain 1000 followers or more per week. Just use the "normal" speed and not the fast as you want everything your doing to seem natural. I have heard some people say they used instagress and their account got locked but I'll bet they left some important detail out about what they were doing. I have 20 of my accounts in an instagress account and have been using them for about 2 months and none have been locked and I'm gaining loads of followers and building some lists all automatically so I love it. Go to youtube and look for using instagress videos and you'll see what people recommend for the settings to keep yourself safe.

    Besides the advice you got above - here's a rotten way of doing it. Have a pretty face, or show nice abs. Get a ton of likes to it (by crook, sorry I know it's bad advice but this works) - make the Popular page and you'll get a lot of followers.

    It is not so tough to get Instagram followers. You can simply follow these tips to get Instagram followers.
    One of the best ways for you to gain followers is to start liking photos - as many as possible. Scroll down through your home feed and like some or all of your friend's photos. Hopefully the ones who aren't following you back already will now start following you.

    Not only should you start liking people's pictures, you should also start commenting on them.This provides more of a personal touch, and people will be so flattered with your nice comments that they'll be more inclined to follow you!

    Although Instagram is 90% pictures, it's important not to forget about the power of words. Captioning your photos with funny, clever or unique comments or questions can be a great way to engage with your followers and also gain new ones.

    Perhaps I won't say anything new, but you should follow, like and comment as much as you can. People love the attention, so some of them will definitely follow you back. It is also crucial to keep your profile interesting to your potential followers, so try be original and friendly. That's pretty much it

    10 tips to Instagramming like a pro:

    1. Start with beauty : Becoming an Instagrammer starts with beautiful images. Nobody is going to want to follow you if you don't have beautiful photos

    2. Don't use the front facing camera : "The front facing camera on your phone is of a substantially lesser quality.

    3. Set exposure manually : It's best to shoot slightly under exposed than over exposed because it's easier to bring back shadows than it is with highlights.

    4. As night falls, break out the accessories : Tripods will hold your phone nicely to get a bit of a better still shot at night time... A light cue gives you light in three stages, and sometimes you can incorporate into shots its weird color functions, which make [your pictures] psychedelic.

    5. Use natural light : "Natural light is by far superior to any kind of artificial form, and cannot be replicated or mimicked.

    6. Utilize other camera apps : I use Light Room apps on my phone depending on the content, [and] when I edit I edit on my little Macbook.

    7. Stay charged : I always walk around with a battery pack. You will always see in an Instagram backpack a mobile charger... it gives you power on the go, [and] Instagrammers are always on their phones

    8. Explore more ; No matter how claustrophobic it may make you feel, your city has more to offer than meets the eye. Thanks to the photographic communities Instagram has created, it's never been easier to go on a 'photo mission' to hunt for those hidden gems and secret spots.

    9. Collaborate : An instameet is a really fun excuse for instagrammers and photographers to get together and capture images.

    10. Be true to yourself : There are so many 'rules' attached to photography that it can get pretty hard to keep up. While best practices for composition, exposure settings, the rule of thirds and framing can all come in handy, they can also start to heavily restrict your creative process.

    There is now a much cheaper method to gaining followers and that is by using Instagress automation tool. It automates your liking, commenting, following and unfollowing. I average about 5000 new followers per month added to my accounts. It is just $9.99 per month per Instagram account you set up with them. One of the best methods still to get followers is to follow someone else in hopes that they will follow you back and it works great as there is no shortage of people on Instagram that want more and more followers. So the follow method works great but you still have to have nice high quality pics so people will want to follow you because this method gets you actual REAL followers so they will go to your account and take a look and if they like your account they may just follow you.

    Also don't forget to post often like 3-6 times a day spread out throughout the day and use good hashtags to help promote your account and gain followers.

    Here are few things that work for me

    - Use the right hashtags with each post. Caption should be enticing as well. Keep a good mix of long form captions and short captions

    - Follow back other people and engage with the people who comment on your photos. Double tap atleast 100 new accounts every day

    - Post videos

    - Edit out your images with Lightroom and keep a good mix of outdoor and indoor shots

    Hope this helps!

Aside from this, your followers can turn into potential sales if you offer products and services. Listed below are some essential tips on how to gain more followers.

    Top Hacks on How to Get More Followers on Instagram:

    1. Interact with your followers by offering exclusive content.
    Build a relationship with your Followers to keep them coming back to your account by sharing information that only you can offer. Use Instagram to reveal special news that you haven't shared anywhere else. This will make your Followers feel special.

    2. Create a profile that is buzz-worthy and represents your brand.
    This is one of the best strategies to turn followers into clients. Use high-quality images and be consistent with your style. Personalize your brand to make it more likeable. Don't forget to be authentic!

    3. Post extraordinary photos and videos that connects you to your followers.
    Since Instagram is a visual platform, use the power of your photos and videos to entice your followers. Use other apps such as VSCO to add filters to your photos. Add videos that are relevant and interesting.

    4. Maximize the power of hashtags.
    Hashtag is one of the most powerful feature in Instagram. When used well, it can catapult your profile views and allows you to connect to a community.

    5. Run contests for your followers.
    Come up with a cool contest that your followers will be interested to join in. Make sure you have an awesome prize within your target market. Include a voting element that will draw many contest participants.

    6. Learn about Instagram Marketing by reading materials and guides from the experts.
    There are plenty of guides that will help you through the basics of Instagram marketing up unto the more complex topics. Read through them and continue to know your way to the ins and outs of Instagram for business.

    7. Connect with your followers by commenting, regramming their posts and direct messaging them.
    Make a connection with your followers and foster a real relationship with them. This will make them feel like they are part of your Instagram family. If you’re a brand, engage by regramming their posts that features your products.

    Gaining followers on social media is a great way to get your niche in the forefront of customers minds. Girls that lift weights is a pretty good niche, so I am sure you shouldn't have too much trouble aligning with businesses and groups that may be able to share your page to interested people within your target market.

    I would suggest following like-minded people and successful, relevant competitors on Instagram.

    Using hashtags, add useful comments on other people's posts and even ask interesting questions will bring you some success. At the same time, you can get some inspiration from them. However do not copy them, that will give you little success. Use unique and inimitable content that will give you a competitive advantage. Influencers are a great way to boost your reach and following. I guess it really depends if you are promoting a business too that needs people in a specific geographical area or if it is purely a page for ladies that lift weights without a specific geographic location like a gym or fitness studio.

    Engage with your followers, be creative and share things with them regularly. This will offer them a personal touch that they will enjoy. Be active and respond quickly on Instagram is another way to help gain followers.

    I'm sure that with regular and unique content and imagery plus videos that are of interest to your target market you'll get the following you are after.

    Good luck with it all.

    I use automation tools. Here are the top three in my oppinion.

    1. http://boostgram.com $99 monthly
    2. http://instagress.com $9 monthly
    3. http://followliker.com $97.99 one time payment

    I have been using instagress since day one and I have got good results. When it comes to doing social strategy for higher end clients and brands boostgram gets better engagement and has gender targeting and post scheduling so its worth the extra cost. Follow liker works great if you are managing TONS of accounts. It is tailored more towards bulk management and you need to be pretty technology savy to get it working and not breaking instagrams limits.

    These are all great tips and a few which I'll take on board myself!

    I'd also recommend remaining consistent with your brand ie a logo on every picture etc.

    People get used to the theme of your content and look forward to it. If you see someone you're following 'liking' the same profile consistently it's only natural that you'll wonder over and check them out too.

    It's definitely harder to create a relationship with Instagram users but if your content is all over the place and posted irregularly that makes it nearly impossible.

    Good luck!

    1- Using good hashtags: Use good hashtags for all of your posts, this will help other users to get to your content even if they don´t follow you, there are some interesting apps and tools that can help you choose good hashtags if you don´t know how.
    2- Explore hashtags yourself and follow new people.
    3- Post appealing and high quality content: Lets face it, if you just post photos taken with a 5 megapixel camera, no one will engage with your content. You need to use high quality content.

    People will say to buy followers or bots but trust me, these are no good for a business at all. You put yourself at risk of getting banned if you take advantage of it and also you look silly when you go from (for example) 100 followers to 1000 overnight and have really low likes.

    I know that Instagram deactivate account that are potentially bots so you also have the risk of looking silly by going from 1000 followers to overnight 300. Something similar happened to a friend of mine a couple of months back.

    Be social. Interact with real human beings. Post relevant content, comment and like others images in your niche.

    1 ) Create a clear Instagram strategy

    Research your competitors
    Decide what story you're going to tell
    Set goals

    2) Gain more Instagram followers by making your Instagram account more visible

    Announce your Instagram account to your followers on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, or any other social network you've already built a following on.

    Link to your Instagram account on your website, in your email signature, and in newsletters so that more people in contact with your brand online can find you on social media.

    Follow people and like or comment on their photos to increase your visibility within Instagram.

    Use relevant hashtags to help your content appear in searches. (More on this in the next section.)


    3) Create good Instagram content to grow your Instagram following

    Using a good combination of videos and nice pictures is also very important, if people dont like your content they wont engage with you, is that simple.

    1. Use hashtags that are known to help increase followers: #FF (Follow Friday), #instafollow, #l4l (Like for like), #tagforlikes and #followback.
    2. Like hundreds of random pictures from people in your target audience.
    3. Hold a contest on Instagram. One of the easiest ways to do this is to post an image promoting the contest and then ask people to like it in order to enter.
    4. Promote your Instagram account on your other social media accounts and profiles. Tell people what they can expect once theyre following you (e.g., behind-the-scenes photos, sneak peeks, coupons, etc.)
    5. Like and comment on other users photos. This is the most natural way to gain new followers.
    6. Use popular hashtags so your images get found in search. Some of the most popular ones are #love, #instagood, #tbt and #photooftheday.
    7. Post photos at 2am or 5pm. Research shows that these are the most effective times to post.
    8. Search for and follow people who are using popular hashtags like #followme and #likeforlike. Many will follow you back!
    9. Remember that quality beats quantity. Edit your account to leave only the best images. No one wants to follow someone with thousands of pointless images of food or other random shots.
    10. Use the Mayfair filter. According to Track Mavens Fortune 500 Instagram Report, its the single most effective filter for marketers.
