Hello friends
Hope you all doing well. A technical post after a long time :)
In today's post, I will share my Tips to increase followers & engagement on Instagram.
Things that worked for me.
Apart from blogging, Social media Influencing has picked up well, in fact, now we see more requirements for Social media posts than blog posts.
The number of Social Media Influencers are more than bloggers.
So it is too important to know how to grow organically on these social media platforms.
Especially Instagram as most of the collaborations requirements are on Instagram.
Ways to increase Real followers & Engagement on Instagram:
1. Optimize Your Instagram Account
This is the basic step of starting an Instagram Page.
Consider your Instagram Bio as your HomePage.
Introduce yourself there :)
A link to your blog or Youtube channel can be added there.
This will help to drive traffic to your site or channel.
2. Quality Content
The thumb rule of the blogging world is CONTENT IS KING
and it's true.
Quality Content is something everyone is looking for.
People love to see quality content which is informative.
So try to create quality content as per your niche.
Excellent Images, Informative Posts, Funny Video's or Reels are in demand.
Once people will like your content they will surely follow your page.
This is one of the best ways to get real & organic followers.
3. Loops
There are many loop pages on Instagram, both Indian & International.
One needs to follow the page and participate in weekly or monthly loops.
There one needs to follow other Instagrammers and they follow back, so basically it is follow for follow.
You get real followers but at the same time need to follow others.
This might not work for some but for beginners who want to increase their follower, can try :)
4. Giveaways
Who doesn't loves to win, Win cash prizes, brand gifts, makeup, etc?
So giveaways always help to attract the audience and bring followers.
It's tried and tested one.
I have done several giveaways and it brought new followers to my account.
This way your content is then visible to a new audience and if they like your content they will follow and stay.
5. Ask your friends to do story shout outs, you can do the same for them.
This way your content will reach a different set of audiences.
6. Do regular stories
Doing regular stories help to reach more people.
It could be about your posts or shopping experiences, any new recipes or even unboxing video's, etc.
7. Using Proper Hashtags
Using proper hashtags is so important on Instagram.
It helps to reach the right audience.
Helps to reach your post to similar content from there others can see your posts or stories.
8. Avoid Fake Followers
There were many pages on Instagram where buying fake followers or Bots was easy and not so expensive. Many Influencers have purchased fake followers to increase their number but in the long run, it's a waste.
Reason: These fake followers do not engage in your content thus engagement rate decreases, and eventually they unfollow and your content is not reaching the right audience.
So try to avoid such and try to increase your followers organically.
Hope you all liked this post and found it useful.
