Ways To Up Your Instagram Game While Barely Trying
You’re posting all of the pictures that you like, but you’re not getting as many likes or followers as you want. Sometimes it isn’t what the picture is about, but how they appear and your content is really important! Follow these steps to draw people towards your Instagram page, easily and effortlessly!
1. Be Original
This is probably the easiest step you’ll ever need to up your Instagram game! There are so many Instagram pages that look so similar to other ones which can appear boring or unoriginal. That’s why people only follow one of the accounts, and the rest are just dupes to them. If you’re more original and you think of a way to show off your pictures in an aesthetic yet unique way, you can draw the attention of more followers! Don’t follow the crowd, be the person that the crowd follows!
2. Have A Theme
If there are different ones and colors for all of your posts, they can seem kind of all over the place and messy on your feed as a whole. Even if the pictures are nice individually, they might not look as appealing with the crowd of pictures on your feed. Try and make all of your post the same color scheme in order to have a theme on your overall page! Don’t mix dark and light tones, or cool and warm tones. I know this might be hard, but choose one look!
3. Post Consistently
Let’s say you do have nice photos and a nice feed, yet you still aren’t getting a lot of attention on them. Maybe you need to post more often! Posting more often will show your followers and audience members that you are very consistent with your Instagram, and you can show them more of what you are into! You can keep your followers up to date, and keep their attention going. Instagram nowadays is used as a platform and portfolio, so it’s important to keep up with your page!
4. Use Hashtags
Hashtags may seem overrated and old, but they’re extremely helpful. When you use hashtags, people all over Instagram can who search or click that certain tag can see your photo within all of the other photos that are tagged with the same hashtag. If you really want to get yourself out there in the Instagram world, start hash-tagging!
5. Post Trending Content
If you notice something trending on social media, incorporate that into your posts! You can do this by doing certain challenges people do, wearing clothes that in style and currently trending, posting a certain makeup look, and so much more! You will most likely get your viewer’s attention this way!
6. Comment and Tag Influencers
If you have certain influencers or famous people that you like on Instagram, let them know you exist! There are so many individuals that get discovered and featured by famous influencers just by tagging or commenting on their posts. Whether it’s tagging them in posts or stories, your name can be seen by the people who are winning the Insta-game. Take the chance and go for it!
7. Quality Over Quantity
No matter how many photos you post on your Instagram, if they’re blurry or look like they weren’t taken clearly, your followers are mostly likely to scroll past it. Make sure you have photos that are good quality, so your audience can see it better! It’s important to show your followers that you actually try to make your feed and Instagram pleasing to the eye. If you don’t have a good camera or phone, you can ask a friend who does to take some photos for you!
