Need more followers on Social Media

Post regularly so that people always get updates from you and they don’t forget you. If you want to increase your followers on Instagram you need to post 1-3 photos a day. It’d be better if you don’t post several photos at the same time.

And also don’t post just for posting. Try to post beautiful, exclusive, cute photos.  But don’t post too often so that you don’t become annoying. People may unfollow you or even block you if you post too often. 

Liking others’ photos on Instagram is like advertising yourself. So start liking others’ pics if you want to gain more followers. Go through your feed and like others’ photos. While checking their notifications, they will notice you and some of them will start following you.

Go to explore section on Instagram. Search for hashtags relevant to your preferences, for example cats, travel, and press like on the photos that you like. If you have relevant pics some of these guys will start following you.

When you post a photo, describe what it is about, where you have taken it, in what situation and what is it that makes it special. Be short. 1-3 sentences are enough. Photos with nice descriptions are always engaging.

Add questions to the descriptions. For example, if it’s a photo of a new restaurant or pub, ask whether anybody has been there and how they liked it. This kind of questions may engage people into conversations under your posts.

You can also try to use a Call to Action. Ask people to share a photo of theirs at the same place for example, or ask them to share a photo of their favourite place in town using the same hashtag as you so that you engage in conversation together. 

The time when you are posting matters! If you don’t post at the right time, people don’t see your posts. Think about what you are doing during the day and when you usually check your Instagram.

People usually check their social media pages during their morning coffee before going to work, in the evening, when they go back home from work or study and before going to sleep.

Also you can use an Instagram analyzer like Statigram which can help you figure out the right time to post on Instagram.

Write a good bio section. Introduce yourself, present yourself. That’s how people on Twitter are going to know who you are.

Clearly and briefly write about you or your company and brand. Do it in a friendly way and keep your tweets relevant to your bio. Use relevant keywords in your bio so you rank high on Twitter search engine. Don’t forget to mention which city or region you are from to attract local users.

Use your Twitter account to sign in on various forums. Your Twitter bio will be showcased when you post something and if you are popular in these forums, you will attract new followers for your Twitter account.

There are several Twitter directories aimed to help people find interesting persons, businessmen, artists to follow. It’s easy to sign in and it’s another opportunity to increase your followers on Twitter as you will be suggested to be followed.

Here are some of those directories: Twello, TweetFind.

One of the first social media platforms that introduced hashtags is Twitter. Use hashtags, keep them relevant to your content so that people are able to find you and your tweets easily.

It’s useful to know that when you sign in on Twitter, on the left side of the screen you can see the trending hashtags of the day or week or even month. If they are relevant, use them.  

People go to Twitter to get informed. That’s why it’s important that you post something interesting, new, and exclusive.

If your posts are interesting and they convey important information, people will start following you.

If you want to be successful and get a huge amount of followers, you need to retweet people and tag them in your posts.

Find your interest group and start tagging the influencers in your posts. People will notice you and they may start following you.

And if someone tags you in his tweet, be responsive.

Making shout outs on Instagram means promoting someone’s profile in the comments of your posts. You may also suggest people follow him/her. Moreover, you can take a screenshot of the profile you want to promote and post on your Instagram profile. This guy will most probably start following you or may even give you a shout out.

It will be great if you engage someone very popular to give you a shout-out, but it’s hard. There are some websites that can help you with this. One of them is QuickShouts and the other one is Klout.

You can also ask for a shout-out by using the #shoutout hashtag .

If you want to have lots of Instagram followers, you need to choose a theme for your profile. Think about what you are passionate about and try to post photos relevant to that topic. It will help people who are interested in the topic find you easily, and people can make sure that on your profile they will see pics that are interesting to them.

To position your profile in terms of your interests, use some relevant hashtags in your bio. For example #travel, #traveler, #traveling or #food #gastronomy #cousin etc. Don’t leave the bio section empty. Write something interesting. Be creative. Let people know who you are and what kind of posts they can expect from you.

Connect your Instagram account with your other social media accounts. This will mean that every time you post on Instagram, your posts will appear on the connected accounts such as your Facebook profile, Twitter profile etc. People who follow you on other social media platforms will see that you are active on Instagram and will follow you there also. Go to your Settings and tap on Linked Accounts, then choose which platforms you want to link you Instagram account.

Remember! All your Instagram photos must have hashtags. Don’t leave them without hashtags so that people are able to find your photos and see them. You can use popular and trending hashtags, but they should be relevant to your pics.

If you want to increase the number of your Instagram followers quickly, along with the topic related hashtags, you can use hashtags like #follow4follow, #like4like, #followme, #instadaily. These hashtags ensure fast and easy Instagram followers.

TagsForLikes is an application which helps you use the most popular and trending tags of that day. You can copy and paste them in the comments of your photo and you can be sure that you will get hundreds of likes and followers.

So download the application. Then select "Popular" from the menu and then choose "Most Popular" and the application will show you the most trending tags. 

Using Geotags is pretty helpful, especially if your photo was taken in a popular destination. 

For example, if you have taken a pic in Paris and you've assigned a geotag to it, when people search for Paris geotagged photos, they can see your photo among the huge amount of photos taken in Paris. So you will have a chance to interest some people and increase the number of your Instagram followers.

The easiest way to be popular and successful on Instagram is to take professional and exclusive pics. But even if you are not genius in photography, you can be successful by using hundreds of various applications available to edit pics and make them more beautiful. Choose nice filters and make interesting collages. 

Instagram itself provides editing features, but here are some more of those applications to edit your pics: PicsArt, VSCO, Snapseed.

The more people you follow, the more people will notice you or your company.

In social media, there are some unwritten rules of etiquette. One of these rules is the follow-back etiquette. If someone follows you, you follow them back.
