Day 19: Instagram

Instagram Training



Instagram Limits
Likes - 350/hour
Hashtags - 30 per post
Following - You are limited to following 7500 people.  No limit on people following you.  You can only follow 50/hr.

**Note:  Sometimes Instagram may block you for a day or week if you are doing too much activity.  In this case, contact them so they know you are not a robot and say that you are expanding your network and discovering new people and they will unblock you.  

Direct Messaging:  This is new to IG.  Don't be afraid to message new followers and start connecting with them.  Try to get them over to Facebook and start a chat with them.  

I get a lot of DM's from Jamberry and ItWorks girls and they immediately try to sell to me.  Do not be that person, BUILD A RELATIONSHIP!  Take a cute picture of yourself waving and add an air bubble with a photo editing app that says "Hi" and use that as your DM picture.  



Other Instagram Apps/Websites:
  • Iconosquare.com (look at your stats and account online)
  • InsTrack Followers App (see who is following you back and a quick way to unfollow people)


Assignment
