Someone once told me that the best way to get more followers on Instagram is to follow other users and post more pictures. Okay, so I listened and decided to follow other users (the logic is that the more you follow, the more you’re followed back) and post more photos on Instagram but that didn’t really help, because every users also want more followers too, so even after following like a thousand users, the probability of them following back is very low. Now I follow more people but still have less followers. So I searched the internet and here’s what I found on how to gain more followers.
1. Make your Instagram account look great: Yeah, don’t go posting boring photos. No one wants to follow someone with thousands of pointless images of food or other random shots.
2. Like and comment on pictures. Don’t stalk! Once you start following some people on Instagram, take some time to like and comment on their photos. Not only will this make the other person feel good, but other people may see your name or comment and check out your profile. If you stay active on Instagram, this can lead to a steady stream of new followers.
3. Respond to comments on your own photos. Interacting with your own followers on Instagram is essential to maintaining your follower base. Respond to any interesting comments, and thank your followers for any compliments. If a follower asks an intriguing question, take the time to answer it properly.

4. Connect your Facebook account to your Instagram account. Instagram is now owned by Facebook, and you are losing out on a lot of potential followers if you don’t connect your accounts. All of your Instagram posts will be pushed to Facebook as well, giving you double exposure.
5. Hashtags: Use popular hashtags on Instagram so your images get found in search. Some of the most popular ones are #love, #instagood, #tbt and #photooftheday.
6. Be Consistent: You need to be active on Instagram to get more followers.
7. Get mentioned or tagged: Ask a celebrity to mention or tag you. You can post a video of yourself singing a song, tag the artiste on Instagram, if you’re lucky then he/she repost your video or picture, it just could work…and will likely result in a ton of new followers.
8. Follow more users on Instagram: Yes, it is not the best but it’s surely one of the ways to increase your followers
