How to Grow Your Instagram Following








In the previous post (here), we talked about tips and tricks on how to keep your Instagram looking sharp. For this post, we will discuss different tactics used to grow your Instagram following.




Firstly, why do people want to grow their Instagram accounts in the first place?


*If you are a blogger, having more followers means that you are more likely to have brands reach out to you...which could also mean potential paid sponsorships and other exciting opportunities.

*If you are a business, having more followers means that you could potentially make more money. And when those customers get excited about your product, they tell other people who could possibly be future customers.





There are many ways to grow your Instagram, but not all are created equally. You definitely want to gain followers that are interested in your brand (or blog). And engagement is huge! Probably more so than follower count so it is important to attract those that will interact with you.

Understanding Instagram: Tips & Tricks












Hello dear friends and Happy Monday!! Also, to all you Mother's out there, Happy late Mother's Day! <3


Today, I wanted to talk a bit about Instagram. As a blogger, it's super important to utilize social media outlets and since Instagram is the most used (by far!) and most visual (best for marketing our blog content), I thought it would be fitting to do a post on this amazing media.


Don't get me wrong...other social media sites like Pinterest, Facebook, Twitter and others have their place. Each of them have a specific purpose. Although I find that my most successful media is Instagram, this does not mean that it is the "best" or "most successful" for everyone. Instagram is more comfortable for me to use now that I finally understand it and I'm here to share my tips and tricks with you!


So how do you stand out in a sea of bloggers and business?


Let's start with your profile:
