Отметить в Истории Инстаграма друга возможно, как через стикер «Упоминание», так и через текстовый ввод. Другому человеку придет уведомление, что его отметили в чужих Stories.

Как отметить друга в Сторис через телефон

Чтобы отметить пользователя в Сторис Инстаграма, необязательно добавлять его в друзья. Главное, запомнить как пишется никнейм и в точности ввести его в раздел «Текстовый ввод». Система также подсказывает следующие символы и показывается страницы пользователей, которые начинаются с таких же букв.

Отметить человека в Истории Инстаграма с телефона возможно лишь в том случае, если приложение было обновлено. Стикер «Упоминание» доступен на последних версиях Instagram. Напоминает гиперссылку, через которую можно перейти в другой аккаунт или увидеть его предпросмотром.

Отметить друга можно через текстовую часть, поставив впереди символ: «@» и вписав никнейм.

Как указать чужой профиль через никнейм:

• использовать отдельный формат съемки – «Текст»;
• добавить на фотографию или видеозапись.

Для учетных записей, где количество подписчиков достигает более 10 000, владельцу предложена функция: «Гиперссылка». В Stories сверху появляется кнопка, напоминающая цепь. Внутри раздела две строки для ввода: отметить бизнес-партнера и добавить ссылку призыва к действию. Выбирая второй вариант, владелец учетной записи может ввести URL на чужой профиль.

Отметить текстом

Отметить человека в Инстаграме в Истории на фото возможно через текстовый ввод. Предварительно, добавляют снимок или видео, подбирают фоновое изображение.

Как создать ссылку на страницу без фото:

1. Открыть Инстаграм – авторизоваться.
2. Зайти в Ленту – нажать «История».
3. Выбрать снизу режим: «Текст».
4. Ввести никнейм, используя символ «@» — выделить аккаунт, который появится в подсказке.
5. Поделиться записью с друзьями.

Второй способ – добавить URL прямо на фотографию или видео.

Отметить друга можно таким образом:

1. Зайти в Истории – нажать на значок «Галерея».
2. Выбрать снимок или видео – в правом верхнем углу указать на «Текст».
3. Ввести ник через «@» — опубликовать.

Такая запись будет существовать всего 24 часа. Владелец страницы может загрузить её отдельно в Актуальное, чтобы не потерять или оставить для постоянной рекламы. Чтобы незаметно отметить другого человека, нужно максимально уменьшить созданную ссылку и добавить в край экрана. Например, максимально уменьшить текстовую часть или применить такой же оттенок, который часто встречается на изображении.

Результат: отмеченный пользователь получит уведомление, но в Истории отыскать отметку будет сложно. Но, убирая с центра отметку, нужно помнить о том, что выходя за рамки – текстовая часть будет автоматически удалена.

Отметить стикером

В Инстаграме предложен каталог стикеров, куда входит действие: «Упоминание». Используя его, владелец страницы сможет отметить своих друзей, добавить кнопку предпросмотра по нажатию.

Чтобы добавить такое обозначение, нужно обновить приложение Инстаграм и проверить наличие стикера:

1. Лента – Сторис.
2. Сделать фото или добавить снимок из Галереи.
3. Перейти в стикеры: «Упоминание».
4. Вписать никнейм другого пользователя – выбрать из предложенных.
5. Опубликовать.

Упоминание отличается тем, что при нажатии, посетители увидят миниатюру аватарки и ссылку на профиль. Перейти на другую страницу возможно только по нажатию по URL. Приложение автоматически переадресует на публикацию или страницу, указанную по ссылке.

Еще один способ, как упомянуть о друге – сделать репост записи в Stories. Для этого предусмотрена функция: «Отправить в мою Историю».

Если стикер «Упоминание» не появился:

• проверить наличие обновлений у Инстаграма;
• технический сбой: невозможно добавить стикеры действий;
• версия ОС не поддерживает обновления социальной сети.

В случае, когда нельзя сделать отметку определенного человека, возможна блокировка с другой стороны. Или же, в подсказках просто не появляется страницы этого пользователя.

Как сделать отметку человека в Сторис через компьютер

Чтобы сделать отметку в Stories, можно воспользоваться Инстаграмом для Windows 10/8.1 или установить эмулятор с системой Android. В последнем случае, программа соответствует мобильной ОС и все действия выполняются также, как и на телефоне.

Как отметить в Истории пользователя:

1. Скачать и запустить Instagram для Windows.
2. Авторизоваться – нажать: «История».
3. Указать среди режимов: «Текст» — вписать никнейм через «@».

Запись можно опубликовать, нажав на кнопку далее. В разделе стикеров на данный момент отсутствует «Упоминание», но указывая ник, появятся все страницы с подобными названиями аккаунта.

Если использовать эмулятор, пользователю нужно:

1. Скачать и установить Bluestacks.
2. Авторизоваться через Android (Google Account).
3. Перейти в Play Market – скачать «Instagram».
4. Ввести данные от страницы в Инстаграме.

Далее, как и в мобильной версии, перейти в Ленту и открыть «Истории». Добавить можно снимок, расположенный на компьютере или сделать новый, подключившись к камере. Сделать отметку возможно и через стикеры, расположенные сверху, как на смартфоне.

Можно ли отмечать людей, на которых не подписан

В список пользователей входят: страницы из «Поиска», владелец страницы ранее был подписан, связанные аккаунты по разделу «Контакты». То есть, если единожды перейти в аккаунт или искать по нинейму – он будет выдан в подсказках. Отмечая страницы, с которыми ранее не было связи – нужно вводить полный никнейм, проверяя каждый символ. В противном случае, уведомление поступит не тому человеку.

Как отметить профиль в Инстаграм Истории, на который не подписан:

• воспользоваться стикером. Ввести никнейм полностью, без ошибок;
• использовать текстовый ввод.

Если система предложит подсказки – нужно выбрать из предложенных вариантов нужный профиль и поделиться. Владелец другой страницы получит уведомление такого типа в Директе: «Вас упомянули в Истории» и миниатюра самой Stories.

При вводе данных может произойти ошибка: пользователь просто указал никнейм, но он не был привязан к гиперссылке. В таком случае, Историю нужно удалить и опубликовать заново, правильно указав URL на страницу.

Отметить в Историях в Инстаграме другого пользователя возможно тремя способами. Один из них – добавить ссылку через функцию для бизнес-профилей. Такой функционал используют для пиара и рекламы других страниц, создания активного на линка на чужие учетные записи.

Как отметить человека в истории Инстаграм

7. Теперь ваши подписчики могут просмотреть историю и перейти на страничку указанного пользователя, если сторис их заинтересовала.

Какие есть особенности

Мы рассмотрели механизм, как выделить человека в истории в Инстаграме. Теперь разберем, какие есть особенности.

1. Прежде всего, не забывайте, что пользователь получит сообщение о том, что вы его упомянули в своем рассказе. Если же вас кто-то упомянул в своей истории, вам также придет уведомление.
2. Как уже было сказано выше, максимальное число отмеченных пользователей — 10 человек. Если вы отметите 10 человек, то каждый из них получит данное уведомление.
3. Человек, которого вы отметили не имеет права удалить отметку, если он не хочет «светиться» в вашей истории. Однако он может пожаловаться в администрацию социальной сети, если его не устраивает подобная ситуация.
4. Любой пользователь может просмотреть, а был ли отмечен тот или иной человек на других публикациях или в сторис. Для этого нужно открыть профиль и нажать последний с правого края раздел, как это показано на изображении:

Как добавить человека в историю в Инстаграме, если система выдает ошибку

Мы рассмотрели стандартный механизм, как отменить человека в Инстаграме в истории. Однако он не всегда позволяет добиться желаемого результата и приходится искать альтернативные способы, как обозначить человека в Инстаграме в истории.

Как правило, ошибки и проблемы возникают в тех случаях, когда пользователь неправильно выполнил тот или иной пункт. Например, если вы обозначили 11 друзей и более, история не будет опубликована. Необходимо либо убрать несколько отметок, чтобы количество отмеченных не превышало 10 пользователей или же разделить количество людей, которых вы хотите отметить на 2-3 сторис. Специалисты рекомендуют каждому пользователю посвящать отдельную сторис, со своей картинкой/видео и текстом, описанием.

Еще одна распространенная причина — никнейм введен неправильно. В этом случае система не может найти нужную страницу и соответственно сделать на нее ссылку тоже не удается. Обратите внимание, что между знаком собачки и логином пользователя не должно быть пробелов, цифр, знаков препинания и так далее. Если вы находитесь в черном списке пользователя, к сожалению, отметить его тоже не удастся. Поэтому перед тем, как упоминать человека в истории инстаграм, проверьте, а не заблокировал или он для вас доступ к своему аккаунту.

Как добавить человека в истории Инстаграм на компьютере

Бизнес-аккаунты, как правило, ведутся с компьютера. Это намного удобнее и проще, да и большинство инструментов для аналитики лучше работают на базе компьютера. Поэтому возникает вопрос: как отметить человека в Инстаграме в сториз с помощью компьютера. Для этого понадобится специальный сервис — SMM Planner, с которым, наверняка уже многие знакомы.

Некоторые предпочитают использовать эмуляторы системы Андроид для ПК, например, Blue Stacks. Однако использование Blue Stacks не является наиболее легким способом, как можно отметить человека в сториз Инстаграм. Объясняется это необходимостью установки официальной версии.

Итак, рассмотрим механизм, как упомянуть в истории Инстаграма человека с помощью SMM Planner:

1. Открываем сервис и проходим простую процедуру регистрации, затем подтверждаем указанный адрес электронной почты. Теперь заходим в созданный аккаунт. Сервис является платным, однако каждому зарегистрированному пользователю предоставляется 50 бесплатных публикаций. Обращаем внимание, что 50 бесплатных публикаций предоставляется ежемесячно каждому пользователю. Общее количество бесплатных публикаций не накапливается, оно обновляется каждый месяц.
2. Теперь начинаем работать в сервисе. Активируем действующий аккаунт инстаграм. Это необходимо для того, чтобы начать работу с публикациями. Вводим аккаунт и пароль.Вводим данные и для синхронизации выбираем «Подключить».
3. Далее выбираем «Создать пост», а затем «Заланировать».Обратите внимание, что в SMM Planner нельзя сразу размещать публикации и сторис, их можно только планировать, минимум за 5 минут.
4. Выбираем фото или видео и затем выбираем пункт «Отправить как Stories».
5. После этого нужно нажать на значок, который находится в правом углу снизу фото.
6. После этого система автоматически отправляет нас в раздел, где нужно отметить пользователей. Как уже говорилось, максимальное количество для сторис составляет 10 человек, а для обычной публикации — 10 человек. Жмем левой кнопкой мыши по фотографии и перед нами открывается пустая строчка для ввода информации.
7. Вводим никнейм пользователя, а затем на значок лупы. Выбираем имя друга и жмем на его никнейм. В завершении жмем «ОК»:
8. После этого устанавливаем время, когда нужно опубликовать сторис, и опять выбираем «ОК».

Теперь нам остается только дождаться, когда публикация будет опубликованная и принимать восторженные лайки.

Зачем бизнесу использовать сторис

Теперь понятно, как указать человека в истории Инстаграм. Возникает другой вопрос: а нужно ли это бизнес аккаунтам. Разберем основные способы использования отметок в сторис:

1. Реклама. Обладая солидной аудиторией подписчиков, можно продавать отметки в истории, так же, как и упоминания и рекламу в обычных публикациях. Представьте, известный блогер рассказывает, что приобрел качественную вещь в магазине и указывает его через знак собачки. Естественно, это вызовет доверие потребителей и увеличит приток аудитории на страничку данного магазина.
2. Коллаборации. Под данным термином подразумевается создание общего контента, продукта, мероприятия, с которым делятся все участки коллаборации для максимального охвата аудитории, удается охватить совокупную аудиторию 3-4 страниц и более.
3. Взаимопиар. Как пропиарить человека в Инстаграме в истории? Укажите его в своей истории, а взамен он отметит вас. В результате каждый получит новых подписчиков.
4. Геймификация пользователей. Последним трендом в области продвижения акаунтов, как личных, так и бизнес-профилей является организация своего рода квестов и игр. В сторис можно размещать задания. Например, можно направить пользователей на аккаунт-партнера «ХХХ», указав его в сторис, и сделать задание— подписаться на данный аккаунт. Следующее задание размещается уже в сторис «ХХХ», новая отметка ведет на аккаунт «УУУ»Ц и так далее. Вы можете найти аккаунты-партнеры для проведения общего квеста или же таким образом развивать свои дополнительные профили. Геймификация выглядит более натурально и благодаря этому сегодня приносит хорошие результаты.

90002 90037 90003
90032 Understanding The Power of Instagram Insights 90033
90002 Think of Instagram Insights like a treasure map.90003
90002 If you understand the metrics and let them lead the way, they’re certain to help you find treasure. Or at least grow your following and business. 90003
90002 Let’s look at an example. 90003
90002 Say you run a fitness apparel dropshipping store. You might post a few different types of content on Instagram, such as: 90003
90049
90050 Inspirational images 90051
90050 Workout tutorial videos 90051
90050 Product photos shot in a studio 90051
90050 Lifestyle photos featuring your products 90051
90050 User-generated content 90051
90060
90002 Now, let’s run through some examples of what you could learn from Instagram audience Insights, and how you might apply this knowledge to improve your Instagram marketing efforts.90003
90063
90050 You learn that your user-generated content gets the most likes and comments. So you make sure to produce and share more of this content. This boosts engagement and consequently, Instagram’s algorithm will reward your account by promoting your posts. 90051
90050 Your audience is most active on Friday mornings and Sunday evenings. So you always schedule Instagram posts for those times to boost engagement. 90051
90050 Your product photos shot in a studio get the least likes and comments of all your posts.However, they get the most website clicks. So from now on, you share less of these posts, but you make sure to share them at peak times when your following is more active. You also start to include extremely compelling calls-to-action in the post descriptions. 90051
90050 Out of all your inspirational posts, black and white images featuring quotes seem to perform the best. You start sharing this type of post every day and coin a branded hashtag that you include with each post. 90051
90072
90002 The possibilities are endless.90003
90002 Bottom line: Instagram Insights is the key to effective and sustainable growth. So, whatever you hope to achieve, Instagram Insights is a mighty marketing tool that you can not afford to ignore. 90003
90032 How to Get Instagram Insights 90033
90002 If you’ve been scouring your profile looking for Insights and have come up empty-handed, it’s likely because you only have a personal account right now. 90003
90002 In order to access Instagram Insights, you need to have a business account instead of a personal account.90003
90002 In fact, there are plenty of other reasons to get a business profile. 90003
90002 Aside from access to Instagram Insights, Instagram business profiles also allow you to add additional contact options to your profile and harness Instagram ads. There’s really no reason why you should not get one. 90003
90002 90088 90003
90002 Plus, you do not have to create a new account. Instead, you can simply convert your existing Instagram profile into a business account. It only takes a few seconds to unlock all these additional benefits with no extra cost or work involved.90003
90002 To start, bring up your Instagram profile and tap the three horizontal lines in the top-right corner of your screen to open the menu. Tap «Settings» at the bottom of the page. 90003
90002 Then, scroll down and tap «Switch to Business Profile.» 90003
90002 90097 90003
90002 You’ll be asked to select a category and a subcategory for your profile. Once you’ve done that, you’ll need to add at least one form of business contact to display on your profile. 90003
90002 In addition, make sure to connect your Instagram account to your Facebook business page.90003
90002 You need to do this if you want to schedule Instagram posts as the social media tools you need will only work with profiles that are verified by being connected to a Facebook page. 90003
90002 Plus, if you do not connect your actual Facebook page, Instagram will go ahead and create a new one for you anyway. As a result, you’ll be stuck with an extra page that Instagram sees as your official Facebook page, and this can be a real pain to undo. 90003
90002 So make sure you connect your real Facebook page to avoid this issue.90003
90002 All done? Awesome! You’ve now got access to tons of amazing business tools and features. Including Instagram Insights. 90003
90002 To learn more, check out our guide, How to Optimize Your Instagram Profile to Skyrocket Growth. 90003

90002 Unlike a tool like Google Analytics, Instagram Insights is built directly into the app. This native integration means that it’s super easy to view your Instagram audience insights with just a few taps.90003
90002 There are three ways to view Instagram Insights: 90003
90063

90050 You can also access Instagram Insights through each of your posts. Just head to a post and tap «View Insights» underneath the image or video. 90051
90072
90002 90131 90003
90133
90050 To access Instagram Insights for Stories, bring up the Story you want to learn more about, and then tap «Seen by» in the bottom-left hand corner of the screen.90051
90072
90002 90138 90003
90002 You can use each method to glean slightly different results. 90003
90002 Using the first method will show you all of your Insights. There are three tabs on this page: Content, Activity, and Audience. We’ll touch on this more later, but for now, just know this is basically the hub for all of your Insights. 90003
90002 Using the second method, you can quickly see Insights from specific posts. 90003
90002 Using the third method, you can quickly use Insights from specific stories.90003
90002 You’ll likely use all of these methods to access your Insights as you need, so get comfortable with using all three of these techniques. 90003
90002 Now, before we dive into Instagram Insights, it’s vital that you understand some marketing metric basics. 90003
90032 Instagram Reach vs Impressions 90033
90002 Instagram Insights lets you track and monitor tons of different metrics that are all helpful to any business. 90003
90002 However, there are two which are particularly important: reach and impressions.90003
90002 Studying your Instagram reach and impressions is vital because you need to know how people are interacting with the content that you post. If you’re not tracking this interaction, you’ll have a hard time knowing what your audience likes. 90003
90002 But there’s one roadblock here: what 90009 is 90010 the difference between reach and impressions? 90003
90002 These often get confused with one another because they’re so similar. It can get tricky if you’re looking at these metrics for the first time.What does reach mean on Instagram? What counts as an impression on Instagram? Here’s a quick breakdown: 90003
90002 90167 What is reach on Instagram? 90168 90003
90002 Reach on Instagram refers to the total number of 90009 people 90010 who see your content, regardless of how many times they view it or whether they interact with it. 90003
90002 90167 What are Instagram Impressions? 90168 90003
90002 Instagram impressions are the total number of times your content is 90009 displayed to people 90010 on Instagram, including repeat views.90003
90002 For example, when one of your followers scrolls past your post in their feed, it would count as one impression. And if they scroll past it again while browsing a hashtag, it would count as another impression. 90003
90002 However, you would have 90009 reached 90010 just one person. Since reach is determined by the total number of unique users who see your content, you’ve reached just one person, even though that person has viewed your content twice. 90003
90002 So in this example, you’ve reached one person but gained two impressions.So remember: reach refers to individual users, while impressions refers to the total amount of displays. 90003
90002 Now that you know the difference between these two, we can delve deeper into all that Instagram Insights has to offer. 90003
90032 Instagram Insights Explained: What Does This Data Actually Mean? 90033
90002 Instagram Insights can feel like a bunch of overwhelming graphs, numbers, and jargon, especially if you’re new to looking at these types of metrics. 90003
90002 The good news is that this is a lot easier to understand than it looks.You do not need to have any previous experience in marketing, and you might find that these metrics tap into knowledge you already have. 90003
90002 So let’s jump in and demystify what each metric means and how you can draw out valuable insights to improve your Instagram marketing efforts. 90003
90002 When you open Instagram Insights, you’ll see three tabs: Activity, Content, and Audience. 90003
90002 90203 90003
90002 Let’s explore each tab in turn. 90003
90207 Instagram Insights: Activity 90208
90002 When you first open Instagram Insights, you’ll see the Activity tab showing two sets of metrics: Interactions and Discovery.90003
90002 90167 Interactions 90168 90003
90002 90216 90003
90002 Interactions shows you how many times users have interacted with your Instagram account during the last seven days. 90003
90002 These interactions are calculated by adding up the following metrics: 90003
90049

If you want to have photos from a high-level photographer, you can agree with him or her to shoot on a TFP basis. 90003 90002 90009 90095 Bigbangram explains: 90096 90010 90095 TFP ( «time for pics» or «trade for prints») is a type of a free agreement between a photographer and a model when the first one gives a number of photos in exchange for model’s time.90096 90003 90002 TFP basis means you will have a photoshoot and will not pay for it. A photographer also will not pay you for your work but he or she may be interested in your image and use you as the model for some of his / her projects.

Just like you want to feel your followers need you and enjoy your posts, they want you to interact with them more often. People love famous personalities who treat their followers as friends or at least «guests» of their pages, not as a mass of random people. 90003 90115 90115 90002 To show how you appreciate their support, you may write captions or post stories directed to them. Also, it would be nice to ask their opinion about your outfits and content in general.Finally, we have 90009 Instagram polls to use in stories, 90010 so you can ask them to choose between just two options — that’s very simple but enjoyable. 90003 90002 After gathering a large group of keen fans, you can proceed to your first contest. Arrange a «giveaway» — we all love to receive free rewards. The other great example of the contest is profile advertising. Some of the budding models or photographers might enjoy if you’d tell a word about their pages. 90003 90002 Set simple rules for each contest: do not make your followers leave Instagram and visit some third-party sources, just ask them to like your 10 recent photos or take a screenshot of your «contest» post and publish it in their own feed.Both parties profit again: you receive a bunch of new followers, and your fans get a real chance to get something from you. 90003 90019 6. Post Stories and Videos 90020 90002 Videos and stories are no less popular than photos on Instagram. And probably even more. See what stats say: 33% of all content in your feed are videos. This means every third post of yours may be video. «What can I do, if modeling is not about videos?» — You may ask.

90002 In reality, the Instagram algorithm is what decides which posts people see every time they open their feed. Below, we’d like to set the record straight on how it works, so you can make sure your content stands the best chance possible of getting seen during the 27 minutes per day people spend on Instagram. (In 2019, anyway. In 2020 there’s no official data yet about the impact of coronavirus on Instagram use, but we’d put our money on that number going up, rather than down.) 90003
90002 But in times of uncertainty, attentions are frayed and brands have to work just as hard. There’s plenty of competition out there-75% of U.S. businesses are marketing on Instagram in 2020 року, and 90% of accounts follow a business-to keep you on your toes. 90003
90002 On top of that, Instagram’s algorithm is based on machine learning, so the way it ranks your posts is constantly evolving. 90003
90002 We’ve got the latest information on how to work with the Instagram algorithm to further your Instagram marketing strategy, and keep building relationships with your audience.Because, at the end of the day, that’s all the algorithm really wants. 90003

90010 90021 How the Instagram algorithm works 90022 90011
90002 Ever since Instagram ended the reverse-chronological feed back in 2016, every individual person’s feed on the platform has been organized according to the algorithm’s rules.90003
90002 According to Instagram’s official @creators account, this has resulted in a better experience for everyone. (Subtext: please stop asking to get rid of it.) 90003
90002 90003
90002 Source: @creators 90003
90002 So, which factors does the algorithm care about? What moves can brands make that have an outsized effect on what people see at the top of their feed? (And, relatedly: which posts get prime real estate on the Explore page?) 90003
90002 The Instagram algorithm relies on three primary ranking signals.90003
90002 90003
90043 90021 Relationship 90022 90046
90002 Increasingly, Instagram wants people to spend time on the app because we enjoy it in a meaningful way, not just because we can not stop scrolling. Accordingly, the algorithm bumps up posts from accounts that a user already interacts with. For brands and creators, this means that focusing on community engagement is key. 90003
90002 Exchanging DMs, tagging each other in posts, and frequently leaving comments are all actions that indicate a close relationship between accounts.As well as likes, reshares and views. 90003
90051

90052

90043 90021 Interest 90022 90046
90002 If users have enjoyed certain types of posts in the past, the algorithm is more likely to show that type of post to them in the future. 90003
90002 For example: if a user interacts with verified or business accounts more, they might be more likely to see posts from that type of account. If they watch a lot of video, same deal. 90003
90002 In other words, people who engage with posts like yours are more likely to see your posts.The algorithm wants to give the people what they want. 90003
90043 90021 Timeliness 90022 90046
90002 Posts that are more recent are more likely to be pushed to the top of people’s feeds. This means that posting when your audience is online is crucial. (More on that below.) 90003
90002 Other factors that will affect an individual Instagram user’s feed include: 90003
90071
90072 90013 Frequency of use 90014: The algorithm shows the best and most popular posts since the last time a user opened the app-so users who do not check Instagram frequently will only see your brand’s post if it’s earning top engagement.(Note that 42% of Instagram users check the platform multiple times a day.) 90075
90072 90013 Session time 90014: Likewise, users that spend 45 minutes scrolling their feed will see more posts, including underperforming ones, than someone who only spends 5 minutes looking at the greatest hits. 90075
90072 90013 Following count 90014: A person who follows thousands of accounts might not see 90083 every 90084 post from their mom or Chet Hanks. But if they only follow a few hundred, they’re likelier to stay fully caught up on everyone they do follow.90075
90086
90002 90024 Meanwhile, you can rest assured that your Instagram business account is not suffering a secret downgrade. (Nor can you get an automatic boost just by switching to a creator account.) 90003

90010 90021 8 tips for working with the Instagram algorithm 90022 90011
90002 Now let’s go over some best practices for applying these insights to your own Instagram strategy. 90003
90043 90021 1. Post consistently 90022 90046
90002 In order to get traction with the Instagram algorithm, you need to first build relationships with your audience.And since quantity is easier to measure and achieve than quality (see point # 6), the first order of business is to build out a social media content calendar to keep you on schedule. 90003
90002 What does consistent mean, on Instagram? It’s unique to your brand. If you’re just starting out, begin as you intend to proceed. Consider what is sustainable for your team to produce. 90003
90002 If you attract audiences with a blitz-say six Stories, three posts and, why not, one IGTV video a day-you’ve created a certain level of expectation.Can you live up to it? For a month? For a year? 90083 Forever? 90084 90003
90002 (If the answer is yes, we salute you. We’d also like to point you to this primer on how to schedule your Instagram posts, because you’re really going to need it.) 90003
90002 Overall, any brand’s posting frequency and format choices will depend on the resources at hand. What’s most important, though, is to focus on posting content you feel good about on a predictable schedule. 90003
90043 90021 2. Keep a close eye on your analytics 90022 90046
90002 Looking at your Instagram analytics is, not surprisingly, one of the best ways to get insight into not just how your audience feels, but how the algorithm sees your brand.90003
90002 Which posts are wowing your audience? Do they like video or photos better? How much of your traffic is coming from hashtags? Can you give them more of the same, or variations on a theme? Analytics will tell you what you’ve done right, but it’s up to you to figure out how to run with that success. 90003
90002 If you have a business account, take a look at Instagram’s native analytics. This is also how you find out when your audience is online, as well as general demographics and geographic locations.90003
90002 Here’s a quick tutorial on how to use Instagram Insights: 90003
90002 90127 90128 90003
90043 90021 3. Remix, reuse and repost your top-performing content 90022 90046
90002 Once you have a polished content calendar in place, and a lot of analytical evidence detailing exactly what your audience wants, it’s still not always a simple task to source or create enough content to feed the machine. 90003
90002 Upcycling and remixing your best tried-and-true content has two benefits: you already know the algorithm likes it, and it saves time.90003

90002 Here are some devastatingly simple ideas for maximizing your visual assets: 90003
90071
90072 turn a video into gifs or stills 90075
90072 turn a series of photos into a slideshow video or carousel 90075
90072 use multiple images from the same photoshoot for different purposes (e.g., as in the case above, to create a week-long mood) 90075
90072 a #throwbackthursday never hurt anyone 90075
90072 redesign images and feature them as Stories 90075
90086
90002 The key here is to be as creative as possible.90003
90043 90021 4. Reward your audience for spreading the word with UGC 90022 90046
90002 The term is a little broad, but what we talk about when we talk about «user-generated content» is this: regular unpaid folks posting about your brand on Instagram out of sheer enthusiasm. Maybe with a little encouragement, but not necessarily. 90003
90002 This has demonstrable benefits when it comes to the algorithm. It’s no coincidence that the more your audience interacts with your account (tagging you, replying to you, DMing you, etc.), The closer a relationship the algorithm will note, and the more it will surface your posts. 90003
90002 The idea here is to build the kind of loyalty and enthusiasm that inspires people to champion and promote you themselves. If you have an amazing B2C product, the product might do the work for you. Otherwise, you might need to find ways to inspire people indirectly. 90003
90002 Of course, you could always just be extremely direct about recruiting ambassadors. See Soylent’s example below. 90003
90170

90052

90172

90052

90002 There are plenty of ways to reward enthusiastic fans: in many cases just reposting their content to your followers (a.k.a. regramming) will win hearts and minds. Not to mention plump up your content calendar. 90003
90002 You can also run a full-fledged Instagram contest with relevant prizes for spreading the word. 90003
90002 90013 Pro tip: 90014 Avoid reposting everything your audience sends you. Curate the best and, where possible, incorporate content into your brand’s visual identity. And keep in mind that simply reposting other people’s Stories has been explicitly noted as something that will not get your Stories featured on the Explore Page, so make sure to stay creative and on-brand.90003
90043 90021 5. Collaborate with like minds 90022 90046
90002 We will not go into the ins and outs of Instagram influencer marketing here, but finding a relevant collaborator with a complementary audience is one of the best ways to organically expand your reach to new eyes, while also catching your audience’s attention with relevant new angles. 90003
90002 The result-if the collaboration is as exciting your audience as it is to you-may well include an additional boost from the algorithm.90003
90002 For instance, Squarespace frequently collaborates with their own clients. Celebrating your existing relationships-business or otherwise-is a genuine way to show what matters to your brand. 90003
90192

90052

90002 Of course, Squarespace is just as likely to go all-out and «collaborate with» (read: pay) a celebrity like Winona Ryder for a major campaign. Obviously this is the kind of ad spend that goes well beyond Instagram, but if a Superbowl ad is in your brand’s budget, hit up point # 3 again and make sure all the b-roll and behind-the-scenes footage gets groomed for Instagram , too.90003
