Hopefully, these tips will help you grow your account to the level of success you&#8217;re looking for!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creating_a_hybrid_automated-manual_engagement_strategy\"><\/span>Creating a hybrid automated-manual engagement strategy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are many ways to increase your Instagram following and engage with your fans, including using automated tools. If you don&#8217;t have the time to write and post posts on a daily basis, using a scheduling tool can help you accomplish this goal. Before choosing an automated tool, make sure you read reviews and ask for a trial version before making a final decision. If you&#8217;re unsure about which tool is right for you, try Sprout, an all-in-one social media management tool.<\/p>\n<p>Instagram is constantly changing. In recent years, it has become increasingly more complex to keep up with the rapidly changing user base and tactics. While you may feel comfortable with an automated engagement strategy, it&#8217;s important to keep in mind that it&#8217;s not enough. Instagram is actively penalizing users who buy followers and engage them in an unauthentic way. That&#8217;s why creating a hybrid automated-manual strategy is crucial.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creating_a_high-quality_bio\"><\/span>Creating a high-quality bio<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Creating a high-quality bio on Instagram is one of the easiest ways to increase your following. Your bio will be the most visited part of your profile, so it should be of the highest quality. It is also the part of your profile that will probably require the most time to create, since you will most likely want to update it often. Most brands use this space to share updates about their company, offer discounts, and promote their lead magnets.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Optimizing_your_Instagram_bio\"><\/span>Optimizing your Instagram bio<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before you start writing your bio, identify your goal. You can share your mission statement or give your audience an idea of your personality through it. Make sure your goal is clear so that you can keep your bio short and concise. Once you&#8217;ve decided what your goal is for your account, it will be much easier to stick to the character limit. Fortunately, there are many tools available to help you with this.<\/p>\n<p>First, you should take into account the character limit of 150 characters. A lot of people make the mistake of overly-long bios. If you&#8217;re not careful, they&#8217;ll read it and won&#8217;t follow you. Instagram has a limit of 150 characters. Your bio must be short, but it should contain information that is the most valuable to your followers. For example, Coca-Cola&#8217;s bio encourages people to share their favorite soda, while Red Robin&#8217;s uses a photo of Pillsbury, which is also a call-to-action.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Having_your_account_verified\"><\/span>Having your account verified<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One way to improve your follower growth is to have your Instagram account verified. In order to get verified, you must submit the correct documents and remove any old accounts. You must also complete your profile, and check for mentions of your brand outside of the website. Once you&#8217;re verified, you can apply again within 30 days, but repeat applications will lead to your account being cancelled. But before applying for verification, you should understand its requirements.<\/p>\n<p>For new accounts, you can try applying through a PR agency. PR agencies often have access to Facebook&#8217;s Media Partner Support tools, which will enable them to submit your application. Publicists can also submit requests to claim usernames and merge accounts. A request from a publicist will carry more weight. If you&#8217;re working with an agency, it&#8217;s also recommended to submit your request through their own account.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_Laters_free_social_media_management_platform\"><\/span>Using Later&#8217;s free social media management platform<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The free version of Later&#8217;s social media management platform allows you to schedule Instagram posts and track analytics. It also has other features like Pinterest pins, video scheduling, and Instagram stories. While the free plan limits you to 10 posts per profile per month, later&#8217;s paid plans start at $15 a month and give you additional features. The free version is only a supplement to self-publishing, and there are other options that are more affordable.<\/p>\n<p>If you use Later&#8217;s free social media management platform to post on Instagram, you can easily post links without images. However, unlike Buffer, you cannot post videos to Pinterest. Later&#8217;s mobile application only allows you to schedule Instagram stories through push notifications. You can also schedule posts to Facebook and Twitter using the app, but this option is not as versatile. Buffer offers a free trial, and its paid plans are suited for various types of businesses.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eaFd5GX3Fv0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"305\" width=\"546\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Get 250K Followers on Instagram?
