How to Become Instagram Famous (InstaFame)

Instagram is a very popular social networking platform which nearly everyone is on, hell even I am on it. Instagram can actually produce growth in traffic and getting a good volume of followers can explode your traffic. Also, I must not forget becoming Insta Famous. instagram was created on 6 October 2010, original authors were Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger. It was released on the 6th of October 2010 and then 2 years later they eventually created an android app. Anyway, enough of the history lesson let us move on to how to become Instagram famous.

Setting Out Your Profile Accordingly

When you first login to your Instagram the most important thing to do is edit your profile accordingly. Making sure you have a photograph and also an introducing which is you Bio. Your Bio is much more important if you are using Instagram for Business which will make your profile stand out more to the members of Instagram. You can only use 150 characters in your Bio and then underneath you can place an URL link to your blog/website or business site. 

With the recent updates to the Instagram social media networking website, allows members to add hashtags and @ in there Bios. This can surely boost your profile a hell lot more. When members type words to keywords in the Instagram search box for example; Make money online, it will come up firstly in the search top result has #Makemoneyonline so if you have this in your profile you are most more than likely going to gain some form of exposure = More followers.

So if you are already on Instagram then spruce up your profile, make sure your photo is up and your bio is filled out and website link is in the URL box. Also, make sure you add the appropriate hashtags to go with your profile and niche. "Psst" you can also for free upgrade your Instagram profile just like Pinterest as a business. Which allows you to link to Facebook.



How to Get Niche Related Followers

Getting Niche related followers is pretty darn easy, and am not talking about like4like websites. Sorry to say but they are crap here's why? because when you use a like4like website all your followers are mainly fake users. They are fake because of many members of like4like websites just make up new accounts to earn points so they can get likes back. Which does not work, yeah true it may look like you have a mass following on YouTube and if that's what you want that is fine. If you need a mass of followers for exposure and for them to interact with your profile and click your link click your posts and like or even comment on them you will need niche related followers.

This is a different kind of technique but still works, search your keyword for your niche in the Instagram search bar. Note: Making sure you have fully optimized your bio and profile beforehand. Once all ok search using your keyword, you will find a lot of posts related to your keyword. Click on the one most relevant and also must have a lot of likes. Once you have done this and it shows the member who shared the post click on their profile, follow them and also click on their followers. Once you are on there followers there will be many, the more the better. Follow all there followers...

Why follow all their followers?, Easy because if they are in your Niche the member who you clicked on. Then all his/her followers are following them because they are into and know information about the niche. This is why most of the members are following this person. So if you are in the same niche and you are following them it stands to reason they will follow back.  Because they are into the same niche of you, so if they are seeing a fully optimized profile with the fundamentals of what they are into they will essentially follow you back. Not always, but most of the time they will tend to follow you back.



Using Hashtags 



Using hashtags matter on Instagram, not like any other social media networking website like Neil mentions in the video above. Why?, because people are always using search results in the Instagram platform to immediately find what they are intentional looking for. So if you have your keywords for your niche in your Bio and your posts that is a dead cert for more exposure. As long as your profile doesn't look spammy enough I do feel using the right Keywords will attract the right kind of people.

All these do work and as long as you have a decent profile and also put into place the following niche routine you will guarantee to earn a mass follow back. Why also not just follow members but also commenting on posts and liking in the same niche which will help with exposure.
