Instagram Questions (Long Term Money Making?)

by Moneymaker14
7 replies
I have a niche instagram name it's something like bobbybball (for example) say it's specifically for basketball, so then I have 3k followers what would you do to monitize this, should I wait till I get more? I'm sharing basketball photos with my followers and they are liking/commenting, I'm telling them to follow my journey of becoming a pro basketball player (for example)... What type of photos would you post if you were me other than photos of me playing basketball? And how can I monetize this? Not that this was my goal in the beginning but it could fund some of my money for more practice basketballs/traveling, etc..

Thanks!

    Whether I would wait to get more or not really depends on how targeted these people really are to the niche or if they're just random followers.

    I would much rather have 10 targeted potential customers rather than 3,000 random people following me.

    I'm positive there are some basketball improvement guides out there that could be sold. As for what kind of pictures you should be posting. The same ones that got you the first 3,000 followers I would assume, don't wander off of a trail that has a clear path.

    Random followers aren't good at all. I know what i'm talking about ! You need to have niche followers. Harder to get but better in the long run. Keeping them as followers is hard also. The best is to unfollow those that doesn't follow you back.

    Watermaking pics is another way to generate some traffic but people tends to get pissed off and stop following you if every pic is watermarked. Also, it needs to be a short domain. myrefid.com/imtryingtomakemoneywithyou&ref=ME ain't good hehehehehe So you need lots of domains as adding the same one over and over again is not good either

      Yes we can use certain Hash Tag to search and target related niche profiles. We can follow them and in turn they follow us back. See the demonstration at www.followinsta.com to automate this task.

    DON'T USE ADSENSE. You are account will get banned. Unless you really filter the traffic first.

    They don't really like this traffic (for now that is..)
