Instagram quickly outgrew its first impression as a fun app for kids and has become a serious content marketing, networking and audience building tool for individuals and brands. It's one of the most popular social networking sites on the planet, with over 200 million active monthly members sharing 60 million images and 1.6 billion likes per day.
10 WAYS TO GET INSTAGRAM FOLLOWERS!
1. Use Relevant Hashtags.
Hashtags are the best way to reach the right audience in a very short time. You can use upto 30 hashtags with each picture you upload on your instagram profile. There are tons of hashtags to get followers, like, comments and also to show up your pictures to get the engagement of right people.

2. Leave your impression.
I think it is the most important part not only on Instagram but for any social site to get attention of people. Like random pictures and leave comments, it sounds like spamming but Trust Me it works. You don't have to visit every profile, just select any hashtag or it is better to target your geo location and leave your impression on their post. If your content is really good you sure have gonna have a follow from them.
3. Best time to post.
For sure instagram is a social site that operates by many Artificial Intelligence robots and if you think you can post whenever you want to, you are out of the game. Researches shows photos Posted at 2am and 5pm gets the highest engagement from users and as high your engagement, as better the chances to gain followers. If you post daily, then post between 7 am to 9 am or 4pm to 6pm.
4.Promote on other Social sites.
Don't be lazy and please don't just stick to Instagram and wish that in next lucky morning you gonna have tons of followers. If you really want to go on peak, You gotta promote. Target people on Twitter, Facebook, tumblr Blogs, Pinterest and a lot more ways and tell people to follow you.
5. Follow famous public profiles.
Not the best but surely an important part if you really want to build the audience. Follow people of same niche as of yours and learn from observing how do they post, at what timings, how they engage with people, what are the hashtags they use and it will give you the perfect way to know what you have to do.
Not only that but turn post notifications on for their posts and like and comment on each post. It will help you to create a relation with them and later you can also ask them to give you a shoutout for free!
6.Call to Action.
One who knows how to attract people never going to neglect this point. Yes, call to action. Ask questions in every caption of your picture and people will answer in your Instagram comment box. By doing so it will increase your engagement with your followers and no doubt your post will appear highly in suggestions and you will get more and more followers.
7. Posting schedule.
Don't be a spammer or you are out of the game. People don't like to follow those profiles that posts too much cause they want to see different things on their wall for sure. It's better to set a specific time for your post and then post regularly for once or twice. If you have a fashion of photoshoot blog then it's better that you post three or four times in a week.
8. Shoutout For Shoutout.
So you have created a recent account and now you have just some 300 or 400 hundred followers even after so many good posts and now you are hitting your head with walls cause it is harder to understand than any maths problem? Relax! This is one of the best option for the people who are just new on Instagram and want to reach 1k or more in a very short time. Ask out your friends and mates to give you a shoutout and in their story and tell them to follow you. If your stuff is really nice their is no way that people won't give you a follow
9.Use Instagram Story Feature
Instagram story feature is one of my favourite thing to interact with followers and also with the new people. The best thing is it will last long for only 24 hour and won't appear again and again so you can post multiple stories and it is not annoying. Even you can tag your stories with hashtags to get more traffic on your account resulting in more followers.
10. Use your bio link
Are you going to save link for once and forget that? Huh silly, be more creative with the link in bio. Update your link every week with a new content link and drive traffic towards the content. Put it in your story so more people will get to know and you can build your own community.
