Gaining followers on Instagram is not easy, especially if you are starting from 0. You are a small fish in a huge ocean and to put it into perspective, here are some facts about Instagram.
On a normal day, around 80 million photos are shared to Instagram and on that same day, around 3.5 billion likes are given out. So your one photo has to compete against 80 million photos.
Don’t be put down yet though, as we have 4 great ways to get your first 100 followers on Instagram.
Provide value
If you aren’t providing value to a user, what is the point of them even following you? The best way to grow your following on Instagram is to provide amazing value to your followers. This will not only make them want to follow you but also engage and share your content.
Be unique
No one is going to follow you if you post the same content as everyone else. So create your own content and make sure it’s unique. This way not only are you providing value to the users on your page, but it is also content that no one has seen before.
Engage
Engaging with people on Instagram is a great way to not only build followers but to also create great connections. Message and engage with your followers and people you’re following.
Keep content consistent
If you can try to post once a day. If not 3 times a week is perfect, but be consistent. Don’t stop posting for 2 weeks and then continue again. Instagram doesn’t like that.
