Free Ways to Gain More Instagram Followers

Gaining Instagram followers might be frustrating in the beginning, especially if you would like to do it without having to invest a lot of money. Paid advertising expenses usually weight heavily on your budget, if you want to build a successful online business, so today we want to give three great ways which will help you gain more followers on Instagram.   

Tip #1 Posting frequency

If you want to have more and more followers, you need to prove that you are an active user. Adding more than one post per day to your Instagram grid will help you gain more followers with each post.   

However, you will need to find the right balance between the number of posts per day and the quality of them. If the content isn’t attractive and relevant enough for your targeted audience, then you might end up with fewer followers.

Tip #2 Hashtags

One of the biggest mistakes people make on Instagram is using the same hashtags over and over again. That leads to you sharing your content to the same audience, and it’s almost impossible to gain new followers this way.

Changing hashtags on a predefined constant basis will help you reach new people and eventually increase the number of followers. Also, if you want to build an Instagram account for marketing purposes, you have to make sure first that your variety of hashtags will suit the targeted users you want to reach.                

Update your relevant hashtags frequently (based on your niche or business field), and your audience will increase. You might also want to advertise using banner advertising platforms such as Clicksdealer.com, in addition to your daily Instagram activity.    

Tip #3 Instagram Facebook groups

Although Facebook is slowly losing in popularity against Instagram, it can still be beneficial. You may notice that there is still a high activity on Facebook groups, which is where you want to get involved and talk with other people. 

Being active on Facebook groups is a very effective way to reach targeted users which will suit your Instagram content. You can attract people with the exact characteristics that you want and if you’ve followed our previous two steps (you update your grid with quality content frequently, and you are continually changing hashtags) promoting your Instagram page on Facebook groups could be another effective free way to reach new people.     

With that being said, these are just three of the best free ways to increase the number of Instagram followers without the need to have paid advertising expenses. You can definitely find other methods online, so make sure to do your homework.
