Consistent Uploads

I cannot stress how important consistency has been to the growth of
every content creator that brags a tremendous growth rate.

• All your followers might not be shown content immediately at the time of making the post.
  

• If you post everyday, you double your chances of reaching more people.

• If one post doesn’t do well, it can ride in the wave of another posts reach, as when people visit your profile they tend to look around neighboring posts.

• It also accustoms people, to look forward to your post everyday.
  

• Coming up with a post and design every single day will increase your efficiency to design, create content and reduce the effort spent as well.

NEW: Story Views Hack

You can easily double or triple your average story views. How?

• Instagram is always coming up with new stickers. Why it’s important? All stories with that sticker are shown as a separate story highlight on every followers profile. Support Small Business/Stay At Home etc.Use those stickers, cover them up with your post. And voila you’ve just added a preview of your post which is shared with everyone.
  
  Recent stickers that were launched and were leveraged by a few smart people.This borders on unethical sometimes, which is why I’d refrain from overdoing it and using these infrequently.

  

Suggested Accounts

• When you’re not following someone, there’s a tiny arrow next to them. When you click, it suggests similar accounts to you.

• It is based on multiple factors like the similarity of profile pictures, similarity of IG usernames, and how much they interact with each other.

• But there is more to it, the answer is the keywords in your name + bio. You’re more likely to be suggested on profiles that use the same keywords.

• You can’t change your name more than 2-3 times per 14 days. But your bio, you can switch up every day. Go find accounts that are on IG steroids and gaining followers rapidly. Pick up keywords from their profile that you can add to your bio without making it confusing.

• Let’s say an “Instagram Expert” is doing well. You can add something like “New to Instagram, learning from Experts”. Be clever about this.

Best Time To Post

Instagram gives you audience activity according to your local time zone.
If you use Creator Studio (FREE app by Facebook) it will show you audience activity according to PST (Pacific Time). Which one do you rely on? Neither.

• Why? You need to know that there will be certain people that interact with your posts who will form the bigger chunk of your engagement. You need to post at the time most of these TRUE FANS are online.

• How? If you know they come from a specific time zone, check the highest activity time for that time zone on Google and post then.
  If most of them come from different time zones, you can’t hone in on their time zone.

• We advise you experiment with 4 time slots when you can be online to reply to the comments you receive back. Even if you can take out 15 minutes to reply to the comments it is good enough.

  

Geo-Tagging Locations

We provide you with recommended Geo Locations on your dashboard that are currently trending.

• Geotags are locations that you can add to your posts while posting them. These location metrics show up in insights as shown on the side.

• They are important because Instagram provides support for people to find posts by location. So people can view your posts by location as well.

• These locations help you reach & target audiences in areas that you aren’t present at. At
  IG only reports top 4 impression metrics. Now the other metrics are much higher so location isn’t reported. But every extra impression counts.

Follow/Unfollow Method

One of the oldest tricks in the book! How to tell if an account is likely to follow you back

• Follow users followers that have an account similar to yours. E.g. if you look similar to Justin Bieber, follow the people who have liked his recent post

• Follow people who have LIKED a post, not people who simply FOLLOW the user. A lot of users have fake or inactive followers, whereas people who are liking their posts are far more likely to be active, engaging fans.

• After following them, like 1-2 of their posts or even drop a comment for a high conversion rate.

• Follow users who have a reasonable follower to follow ratio. If someone has 2,000 followers and follows 50 people, it is likely they only follow their close friends and won't follow you back. Also avoid anyone with under 100 following or followers.

• DO NOT GO ON FOLLOWING SPREES! This will eventually get your account blocked and allow you to do nothing after 1-2 weeks. Be methodical and choose who you follow very carefully based on these factors

• Avoid fake accounts or account that seem illegitimate. Typically, they have strange profile pictures or bios designed to promote other accounts. They are a waste of a follow.
