There are hundreds of millions of users on Instagram who, combined, like a grand total of over 1 billion pictures every day. Although there are many pictures getting more likes as the days go by, there are many people who have not built large audiences on Instagram. In order to get more likes for your Instagram pictures, it is essential for you to grow your audience, and here are five ways to make that happen:
- Post a new picture on Instagram more than once a day. People need to see you on Instagram often so they have a reason to continue following you and liking your pictures.
- Post pictures that people would want to like. Only post the types of pictures on Instagram that you would be happy and proud to post under your name. If the picture is blurry then forget about it.
- Share your Instagram pictures on your other social networks. Why not utilize the audiences you have already built? Promoting your pictures to your other audiences will allow you to build your presence on Instagram.
- Allow people to follow your Instagram account on your blog. Promoting your Instagram account on your blog will allow more people to see it. The ideal button would be a button that allows people to follow you on Instagram without leaving your blog.
- Use hashtags. Hashtags allow you to spread on Instagram because people who search for those hashtags on Instagram’s search engine will find your pictures.
Those are the five ways to get more Instagram followers. What are your thoughts on the list? Do you have a 6th method to getting more Instagram followers? Please share your thoughts and advice below.
Hi Marc, I have gone through your twitter course and find it very useful. Do you have any courses on Instagram? I am trying to build an instagram following for my business letters templates site at http://officewriting.com Thanks!
I do not have a course on Instagram yet but will be sure to create an Instagram course soon.
Hi Marc
Thanks for sharing these tips. I am trying to start Instagram and this would definitely help me to get started!
Have a nice day!
My pleasure Chatty. Instagram is a great way to grow your business because Instagram users often engage with the pictures posted on the social network.
Great tips, Marc! I use Instagram as a tool to engage with liked-minded people and gain inspiration from them. And hopefully, inspire others as well. I have found it’s best to not just like a photo, but to take the time to comment, so you’re actually building a community that is happy to engage with you.

Comments are definitely valuable because commenting allows you to engage with your readers. Although liking a picture is good, it does not allow a conversation to develop. Thank you for the tip KikiMac.
