5 WAYS TO GROW YOUR FOLLOWING A guest blog by the team at Virtual Professionnelle (Part 1 - Instagram) (1) #Hashtags We all know that using Trending Hashtags will increase your exposure in the Instagram world. But then again makes sure that you do not over use it – because chances are, other people might think that you are a bot or a spammer specially when you begin to flood their timeline. In using #hashtags always make sure that you use specific hashtags based on what your target audience or market. You can instantly gain visibility and reach if the the hashtags that you use are one of those trending topics that people are actively and currently talk about. You can create your own #hashtag but don’t make it too lengthy. The limit for Hashtags on Instagram is 30 per post but please don’t do that many, excessive hashtags are a definite no-no Let common sense prevail here!! This video by Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake clearly demonstrates just how silly some people can be with hashtags “#Hashtag” with Jimmy Fallon & Justin Timberlake (2) Awesome Photos and/or Videos Instagram is made for posting photos isn’t it.
