In recent years, Instagram has evolved into one of the largest and most important social media platforms globally, particularly popular among young people and large businesses. With over 1 billion monthly active users, the platform boasts the highest growth rate.
Instagram caters to both private users and businesses, influencers, bloggers, and anyone looking to build their personal brand.
Whether you’re a business aiming for a stronger social media presence and brand awareness, a blogger looking to share your personal lifestyle with others and inspire as many people as possible, or even an artist or model looking to establish your personal brand, understanding the platform is crucial.
How to Create the Right Instagram Profile
Building a large Instagram account is no longer an easy task and takes a lot of time. Above all, remember that content is king! Without authentic content that resonates with your target audience, it’s impossible to build a successful Instagram account.
For instance, Instagram Stories are ideal for providing short updates on your daily life. Since Stories allow you to post images and videos up to 15 seconds in length, they remain visible for 24 hours. Additionally, they can be set as highlights in your profile. Most importantly, your Instagram feed should be filled with long-term relevant content. Need tips for Instagram Stories? In our blog, we summarize tips on how to make the most of your Instagram Stories.
Stories are indispensable for every Instagram user. As a viewer, you get closer to your role models through Stories; you’re “up close and personal” and always up to date. For example, these days, when someone is going to a club, they check Stories beforehand to see if there’s really something going on. But many people aren’t fully aware of this yet.
Since its latest update, Instagram has been using a very intelligent algorithm system. Images and videos no longer appear in chronological order in the feed. Instead, certain behavioral patterns (user behavior) and/or trends are constantly incorporated into the algorithm’s functionality through machine learning. The organic reach of posts is sometimes heavily restricted because account content with which users interact most frequently takes precedence. Regarding feed performance, the algorithm favors content that generates the most engagement. According to Instagram, comments, likes, retweets, and video views on video posts are the key metrics for feed ranking.
In addition to the aforementioned dynamic posts and Instagram Stories, Instagram has introduced additional ways to create and publish content in recent years to keep up with the trend of moving images.
Instagram Live: As the name suggests, you can easily organize live broadcasts for your Instagram followers directly from your smartphone. Live streaming is particularly useful for spontaneous Q&A sessions, behind-the-scenes insights, and live events. Influencers and bloggers, in particular, often use this format.
IGTV: Instagram TV was introduced in 2018 and is also available as a standalone app. The main functionality of uploading, viewing, and sharing videos is also directly integrated into Instagram. IGTV is a similar video platform to YouTube, but unlike Instagram, you can upload up to 60 minutes of video content yourself.
Reels: Reels is Instagram’s response to the popular social media app TikTok. Reels are short, usually entertaining videos accompanied by augmented reality shots, sound effects, and music. Reels are recorded in 30-second clips designed for portrait viewing. A reel can be removed from your profile grid, making it visible only under the “Reel profile” tab. This is useful, for example, if you want to separate photos and videos in your profile.
Engage and Build Relationships with Followers
Moderation should also not be a secondary aspect of your Instagram channel. Connect directly with your followers, respond to comments on your posts, and reply to direct messages. This makes you more approachable for subscribers and potential customers and strengthens your brand image.
