Instagram Promotion: How to Get New Real Followers Faster?

If you have just created your IG account or have just started your first advertising campaign, you must be a little bit frustrated. How to attract people to your acc and persuade them to stay? How to raise your brand awareness? Why is it so hard to get your first fans? That’s simple! No one knows who you are. You should assure people that you are a successful and powerful man/brand. How to do that?

Follow the next pieces of advice and you’ll be golden.

• Draw attention with your content

Of course, you know that even the most expensive promotion methods will not save a profile with poor content. On IG, the picture makes much of a difference.

You have already heard about the quality of the photo (that’s a must-have), it is obvious. But there is another important point that motivates most people to follow you. It is the consistency of your style. When a new visitor comes to your profile, he wants to understand what content he will see in his feed if he follows you.

You should not mislead him or her. All your photos and videos should fit into a single theme, vision, image. The same applies to the texts. But it does not mean that you should post the same thing every time. Find the balance.

Posts should be regular as well. It’s better to post every day. If you doubt that you will find time for that, use automation tools for scheduled postings.

• Use more hashtags

A lot of experts and studies tell you that you should use no more than 5-11 hashtags. But the rule is for those who have already reached the desired acc scale (not for you.)

Use the power of hashtags to the fullest, because it is free and effective.

Do not be afraid to add all 30 tags (IG limit) in one post. But put them in the first comment to save space for your outstanding text.

Do not use common hashtags. Otherwise, your content will be lost among tonnes of other posts and will unlikely be able to attract potential buyers. Make a list of keywords, save it on your phone and copy to save time. Or what is better, use a hashtag generator for that.  AI algorithms of such tools enable tag search by keywords, by a photo and URLs. That is more convenient and effective than making them up every time you write a post.

Experiment, try different tags, leave the most effective combinations.

• Follow your competitor’s followers

If a person already follows a brand, then he is more likely to follow another one. Look for your competitors in the social network, while giving preference to the same small brands like Fyou.

Examine their posts, see who leaves comments, who regularly likes. Follow these users and start communicating with them through likes, comments, DMs. But do not turn into a spammer! Do not overwhelm users with advertising messages. They will not appreciate it.

To save time and to drive your promo, use IG automation tools. They allow you to target the competitor’s fans, leave comments under their posts and send them Instagram DM online. Of course, you should write several samples (good ones) in advance. Thus, you’ll create a kind of connection and recipathy.

• Team up with influencers

There are two options: ask the opinion leader to tell about you on his/her page or invite him to visit you.

If your chosen influencer has loyal fans, his recommendation will push them to go to your acc, which may well lead to a pair of sales.

But choose a partner wisely. All his supporters must be real (not bots and not spammers), otherwise, you seriously risk losing your acc.

Another strategy: invite the opinion leader to your Stories and do not forget to notify his fans in advance. Then at the appointed time, they will come to your profile to see the story with your favorite blogger.

• Launch SFS and Like time

When you have several thousand supporters, you can start SFS. What it is?

Ask your fans to share the profile in their feed by copying one of your posts. Instead, offer to publish the content of several participants in your acc. Don’t forget to add the hashtag #sfs. That’s all.

This rather popular strategy will allow you to expand your reach and attract more customers.

Also, motivate users to like your posts or participate in liketime groups. This will raise your chances of getting into Interesting section.

• Use the strategy of massliking and massfollowing

This strategy, unlike mutual PR, can be used in the long term. It has proven its effectiveness and brings truly valuable results. With its help, you’ll attract the target audience and potential buyers. What is massfollowing and how does it work?

Have you noticed that when someone likes you or follows your acc, a notification arrives? You can examine these profiles and decide whether to follow/like them back. This function of IG formed the basis of massfollowing.

Find people who may be interested in you and your brand by hashtags and geotags. Do you sell products for children? Look for posts tagged with #motherhood.

And go ahead, put likes (no more than 60 per hour) and follow (do not overdo, it is desirable that your profile has more followers than followings).

Note: it’s quite tedious to do manually so you can use special services, which will automate all the processes of your IG promotion campaign.

As you can see, everyone has different strategies to get the cherished millions of fans. Choose the one that will fit your brand best and match all your goals. Good luck to you!
