1
Be selective with your photo
uploads. The best way to gain
new followers on Instagram is
to provide content that is
valuable to users. Nobody
wants to be bombarded with
detailed photojournalism
projects on what you had for
lunch or how sexy your feet
look in those new sandals.
Upload only your best shots––
and not in one huge lump, or
people might miss them.
2
Use hashtags. Hashtags can
help you attract users who are
searching for a particular type
of photo or subject. (For
example, if you take a picture
of the Eiffel Tower, include "#
paris" or "#eiffeltower" in the
description and anyone
looking for photos taken in
Paris will be able to find your
picture.) Using popular
hashtags can also help you
capitalize on what’s trending.
For example, go to
web.stagram.com/hot/ and
see if any of the hashtags
apply to your own photos––
even old ones.
Avoid using hashtags that
don’t apply. Wasting
people’s time is not a good
way to gain followers.
3
Geotag your photos. People
are interested in photos from
locations that they know. On
top of that, as you post
geotagged photos, Instagram
brings up other photos from
that location. This means that
other people posting photos
from the same location as you
might see your pictures and
follow them to your profile.
4
Follow and compliment
other users. Spreading
feelings of goodwill is a great
way to increase your own
base of followers. Do it
sincerely, though; following a
few people with intent is
more effective (not to mention
far less obvious) than playing
a numbers game.
Follow “Suggested Users”
by selecting “Find Friends”
> ”Suggested Users”.
Following users that have
similar interests to you
may encourage them to
follow you in return.
5
Make sure your account is
public. To check your
account's status:
From the settings page,
under 'Privacy,, make sure
the "photos are private"
toggle is set to OFF. This
allows other Instagram
users to follow you and
view your photos without
your authorization.
6
Share your Instagram photos
across your other social
networks. This makes it easy
for your friends and other
Instagram users to find your
photos and potentially
become a follower.
Launch the Instagram app
on your mobile device.
Click the icon on the far
right to get to the settings
page. Scroll down and click
on Edit sharing settings.
You'll see a list of social
networks that you can link
to your Instagram account
(Twitter, Facebook, Flickr,
Tumblr, Foursquare). Click
any name and you'll be
asked to enter your
username and password
to link accounts. The more
social services you share
your Instagram account
with, the more you can
promote your photos and
increase your following.
7
Find and invite friends. This
can be done from within the
@(YourAccountName)
settings tab on the far right.
Users like to follow users who
have a lot of followers. This is
why it can be difficult to gain
followers early on. Getting
friends from other social
networks to follow your
Instagram account is crucial
for building an initial follower
base.
Click the “Find friends”
button to add friends from
your Facebook, Twitter, or
address book, or simply
search for usernames and
names of people you
know that may be using
Instagram.
Click the “Invite friends”
button to select contacts
from your address book
and send them an email
invite to join Instagram.
8
Check out what popular
users are posting on
Instagram. (These are listed
under the “Popular” tab.) Use
these images for inspiration –
though make sure you don’t
outright copy anyone else’s
shots or style. If you are
posting photos that users find
valuable, they will quickly
follow you and encourage
others to do the same
