With increased and free followers on Instagram, one is able to market themselves or their brand better. There are opportunities to get sponsored articles. Hashtags can be used to get free followers without going through any surveys or verification.
Instagram hashtags below the pictures helps one reach a target audience based on their geographical location. It is like a label to the picture. People use specific hashtags for their picture and then Instagram suggests people on the site the images with this specific hashtag.
Another method is to use Crowdfire which is exclusively available for iOS users. The app makes an advertisement to promote a person’s profile. It reaches and engages with the type of audience best suited for the content. To get noticed one needs to upload pictures and that is common sense. Upload at least 1 picture everyday to be seen in people’s ‘suggest’.
One needs to give an appropriate and honest caption with the right hashtag to pull real Instagram followers towards them. Instagram organically reaches the people who will be interested in the content through the hashtag. This will enhance the profile visibility which ultimately leads to increase in followers.
It is important to connect different platforms from Facebook to Twitter, Instagram to Pinterest together to reach a wide range of audience and exhibit the content. This attracts followers that stay for longer time. One can also leave positive comments on other profiles so as to attract them to yours.
Research other profiles to see what is working for them and how one can be effective. The profiles will point out exactly what works and that can be an inspiration. One can employ the same methods to their account.
