Nonetheless, reaching a certain number of followers is still important. <strong>The more people see your content, the greater your chance is at growing your brand awareness, and marketing new products<\/strong> \u2013 that is, if the right people are seeing your posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to grow your follower count though, it is not enough to simply have an Instagram profile and post a couple of pictures.

With our tips, you\u2019ll be perfectly prepared to achieve this goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #1: Post regularly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Posting a picture once a week is too little, posting 15 a day is too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can only find out the ideal number of posts per day through trying out different options. Start out with one post a day, and slowly increase the number to up to three posts a day, including reels. When it comes to stories, you can post even more. Since they do not appear in the feed of other users, the result is not so spammy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is key to <strong>post regularly, and continuously adhere to upload times<\/strong>, in order to attract users\u2019 attention to your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #2: Post relevant content<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that in order to attract followers, they have to be <strong>genuinely curious for your content<\/strong>. If you are unsure which type of content your followers are interested in, there are several ways to find out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Conduct polls.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create personas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check out which content works best for your competitors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Evaluate the posts your target group is sharing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t just pay attention to relevant content, but likewise keep an eye on <strong>staying varied, both in terms of topics, as well as formats<\/strong>. After all, you don\u2019t just want to win over new followers, but keep them interested in the long run. To achieve this, you need exciting content. Note that in many cases, videos will be even more effective than photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-advice\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"advice__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"advice__text text text-rich\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<p>Content creation is an art form, and you can learn it from us \u2013 for free!

For example, keep in mind that reels are preferably played in a loop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #7: Use hashtags and links<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Concerning hashtags, there are contradictory opinions around. It has been a truism of sorts up until now that more hashtags equal higher engagement rates. However, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quintly.com\/blog\/instagram-study\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Quintly<\/a> study suggests otherwise. They conclude that for an account with between 1000 and 10 million followers, the engagement rate is highest when no hashtags are used at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri also emphasized in an Instagram Story that hashtags only bring more reach in a limited way. At the same time, he affirmed that they <strong>provide additional context<\/strong> and increase the chance that content will appear on a hashtag page. So a targeted, not excessive use is still useful. Additionally, it is important to use links in feed posts and in stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #8: Use your own visual langauge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Even die-hard fans of Instagram will agree: a lot of content on the platform is exchangeable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even die-hard fans of the platform won&#8217;t deny it: a lot of things on Instagram are interchangeable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the more you stand out from the crowd if your posts have their own visual language. The trick is to combine recognition with a little something extra to attract attention to your images or videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fashion brand Boheme Goods succeeds quite well. Above all, their images make you want more &#8211; a decisive criterion for new followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Ceu7WZTrDXu\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

It can be the deciding factor in turning visitors into followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you have a common thread by incorporating your corporate design and playing with recurring colors, filters or motifs. An old but still effective tactic is to alternate posts in certain formats or colors in a fixed rhythm. This creates a checkerboard pattern, for example. More unusual variations turn your account into a total work of art that instantly sets it apart from the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-no-card\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"814\" height=\"766\" src=\"https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-profile-design.jpg\" alt=\"Strategy for more Instagram Followers: Design your profile\" class=\"wp-image-38294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-profile-design.jpg 814w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-profile-design-750x706.jpg 750w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-profile-design-640x602.jpg 640w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-profile-design-300x282.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 814px) 100vw, 814px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #10: Localize posts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Use geotagging to <strong>attract users to your posts who are interested in a certain location<\/strong>. You can use this feature not just in the Feed, but in Stories too. To do this, choose the smiley sticker \u201cLocation\u201d at the top right, then select the place you want to tag. It is generally a good idea to localize all of your posts.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-geotagging.gif\" alt=\"Strategies for more Instagram Followers: Geotagging\" class=\"wp-image-13947\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Geotagging increases your reach.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #11: Work with ads<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Naturally, most people would prefer to simply increase their follower count organically. However, <strong>paid ads can multiply your efforts\u2019 effects<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Placing <a href=\"https:\/\/swat.io\/en\/advertise\/instagram-ads-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram Ads<\/a> works similarly to Facebook Ads. Your placement options are Feed, Stories, Explore, Shop and Reels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #12: Pick up on trends<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In social media, it&#8217;s generally useful to stay up to date. On Instagram, too, you increase your chances of gaining new followers by picking up on current trends. In this context, it&#8217;s worth taking a look at the Instagram <a href=\"https:\/\/about.instagram.com\/blog\/announcements\/instagram-trends-2022?ref=shareable\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Trend Report for 2022<\/a>, where you can learn more about the growing interest of young people in sustainability and the popularity of absurd humor, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #13: Collaborate with influencers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The right <strong>influencer can direct your target group\u2019s attention towards your brand and\/or products and increase your follower count in the process.<\/strong> However, Influencer Marketing is by no means an easy, one-size-fits-all kind of endeavor. Choosing the right influencer is key, because only if they fit your brand and products will your campaign come across as authentic. Micro Influencers don\u2019t have a large following, but their audience is all the more engaged and interested in what they are being presented with compared to followers of big \u201cInstagram Stars\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-advice\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"advice__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"advice__text text text-rich\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<p>How can you find the right influencer and run successful campaigns with them?

The rules are clear: don\u2019t just post boring product pictures. Instead, <strong>showcase your products or services as they are being used by people, and make them part of a story<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"642\" src=\"https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-emotions.gif\" alt=\"Strategies for more Instagram Followers: Emotions\" class=\"wp-image-13945\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Emotive content is more successful than uninspired product photos.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #15: Use other platforms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to see Instagram not as a decoupled element of your Social Media Marketing, but rather as an integral part of the overall strategy. This way, you will find many chances to <strong>promote your Instagram channel on other platforms<\/strong>, to a different audience. Such strategies could be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Embed Instagram posts in blog posts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Embed your Feed in your website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mention your Instagram account on other platforms like Facebook or Twitter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Present your Instagram posts in emails to customers or newsletters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #16: Deals and Freebies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s an open secret that giveaways can push users to flock to your channel. As long as you are aware of the <a href=\"https:\/\/help.instagram.com\/179379842258600\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">legal constraints<\/a>, rewarding users for taking part in a competition, or giving freebies away as prizes, is an easy way of garnering attention. For instance, you could <strong>request users to repost your post, or leave a comment, as part of a contest<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, Instagram is great for announcing special deals etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #17: Change it up with User Generated Content<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Who wouldn\u2019t like to see their photos on a big account\u2019s feed? So make the most of that by publishing <a href=\"https:\/\/swat.iostrategize\/user-generated-content-social-media-marketing\/\">User Generated Content<\/a>, thereby making a convincing case for them and their audience to follow you on the platform. Additionally, it will give your account a personal touch, because <strong>content produced by \u201cregular\u201d users seems more authentic and less pushy than obvious \u201cadvertising\u201d<\/strong>. User Generated Content can also work as a great placeholder in case you\u2019re fresh out of unique ideas yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to identify relevant User Generated Content, <strong>create a brand hashtag and ask users to add it to their pictures\u2019 descriptions<\/strong>. For example, furniture store Wayfair regularly publishes posts by users who are showing off their Wayfair products in the context of their own homes.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"745\" src=\"https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-user-generated-content.jpg\" alt=\"Strategies for more Instagram Followers: User Generated Content\" class=\"wp-image-13951\" srcset=\"https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-user-generated-content.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-user-generated-content-750x546.jpg 750w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-user-generated-content-640x466.jpg 640w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/strategy-more-instagram-followers-user-generated-content-300x218.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Wayfair shows you how to successfully embed User Generated Content on Instagram.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategy for more Instagram followers #18: Instagram Collab<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Collabs feature on Instagram<\/strong> allows you to multiply the reach of posts and gain new followers. A second account is added as a co-author of a post. The post itself then appears in both feeds or profiles if the co-author has given their consent. This makes Instagram Collab ideal for collaborating with influencers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Cg9MvH_IjZ0\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

With <strong>Instagram Insights<\/strong>, the platform provides you with its own comprehensive tool for this purpose. You can gain even deeper insights with additional software. Swat.io supports you with a wide range of options for cross-channel analyses.\u00a0If your focus is on follower growth, take a look at <strong>when your account gained or lost new followers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ENG-Features-5-Social-Media-Analytics-Tool-1080x675.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ENG-Features-5-Social-Media-Analytics-Tool-1080x675.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ENG-Features-5-Social-Media-Analytics-Tool-750x469.jpg 750w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ENG-Features-5-Social-Media-Analytics-Tool-1536x960.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ENG-Features-5-Social-Media-Analytics-Tool-2048x1280.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ENG-Features-5-Social-Media-Analytics-Tool-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/swat.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ENG-Features-5-Social-Media-Analytics-Tool-300x188.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This can often tell you which content is working or not working for your target audience. But also consider other influencing factors, for example, changed posting times or advertising campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why paying for followers is not worth it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gaining a noteworthy number of followers takes time. Since many people and companies have a constant lack thereof, it is hardly surprising that <strong>purchasing followers is by no means uncommon<\/strong>. After all, they are available for comparatively little money, and offer immediate results. Nonetheless, we suggest you abstain from taking that path, seeing as <strong>it\u2019s fraud and barely pays off<\/strong>: usually, account owners only experience disadvantages due to bought followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And there is a simple reason for that: Behind bought followers is usually nothing more than either bots or people who have no interest in your content \u2013 and it shows. Of course, there is the occasional Fake Follower who will drop a Like or a \u201cWow\u201d, but an actual conversation with them is practically impossible. If you look closely, you will easily spot if an account has mostly Fake Followers: for instance, if the number of reactions to posts doesn\u2019t match the number of followers at all. A brand\u2019s image can take a substantial hit when being exposed for buying followers, and <strong>you are likely to push away potential followers instead of drawing them in by participating in this questionable practice<\/strong>. At worst, your brand\u2019s or company\u2019s image will be damaged permanently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patience pays off. This way, you will have a greater number of followers, and you won\u2019t have to pay for them either. With a well-conceived Instagram Marketing strategy, you won\u2019t just get more followers, but interact successfully with those you already have. And all in all, by putting our tips to practice, you will be able to <strong>make the most of your Instagram Marketing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-advice\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"advice__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"advice__text text text-rich\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<p><em>For successful social media marketing, you need the right control center.
