Tips & Tricks To Get More Followers on Instagram

Instagram is a very popular visual sharing platform, where the basic motive of
its users is to share the best quality images and videos. The popular photo and
now video-sharing app has come a long way since its inception in 2010 when it
was limited to just iPhone users. The ‘opening up’ of the platform to other
mobile operating systems had played a huge role in boosting the app’s
popularity. Instagram has now become ‘the’ place to post pictures.


Instagram is not just used for personal use, but for commercial purposes alike.
A person’s Instagram profile could be adorned with anything, from pictures of
their latest trip to that of their newborn baby. Sometimes it could even turn
into the PR account of the business that they are running or even the photo
album of the latest family vacation. The former is not limited to small and
medium-sized enterprises, even huge companies and MNCs use the popular
app for advertisement purposes due to the huge engagement that the
platform provides.


Users of every age group can be seen on Instagram with equal enthusiasm. The
fact that Instagram acts as a gateway for the viewership of a large audience
incentivizes people to post even more. You see, every user profile has
a ‘Followers’ and ‘Following’ count, which represents how many users they
follow and how many other users are following them respectively. On the
other hand, the number of likes on their pictures and the number of views on their
videos are also displayed. (Some time ago there was a news that the number of
likes on posts would be removed but it turned out to be a rumor.) The
platform is designed in such a way that its users often enter into a rat race of
having the most number of likes on their posts or to have the maximum
number of followers.


To stay ahead in this rat race, people use several apps to increase their
followers and likes. Some even resort to paying others for increasing follower
count and profile visibility. One does not have to go to the extent of buying
followers and likes, instead of adhering to simple tricks that can yield desired results.


This simple trick is to follow the latest trends online while posting pictures on
this picture sharing app.

One such trend is to post pictures in such a way that individual pictures look
like one big collage when seen with a bird’s eye view, i.e., when seen in the
profile as a whole. You do not have to invest your time and energy to
reproduce this effect manually, there are mobile applications that can do the
same for you.


Initially (back in 2010), users could only post pictures through the app and add
filters to their pictures, without any extra editing features (the manual editing
features). Instagram has undergone a sea of change since its inception in 2010.
One such change, for good, is that the users can now post both directly
through the app as well as from existing photos/videos on their devices. They
can also apply dozens of extra filters as well as edit manually. The latter, as
mentioned before, was not possible in Instagram’s nascent stages.


This user-friendly updated version of Instagram allows the user to use third
party apps or any particular app they want to use to post pictures in the same
trend as their favorite social media star or celebrity. Even for the latest hot
a trend that every celebrity can be seen following, i.e. the collage effect, there is
a mobile app called ‘9 Cut Photos For Instagram’ which has been developed by
Wiinnova Software Labs.


The app is very simple to use and is hassle-free. While using this app you can
choose any picture of your liking. The app then provides several cropping
options for this chosen picture. After selecting the template of your choice, the
app does all the cropping and resizing for you. The smaller pictures that are to
be uploaded as individual pictures, will be ordered. You can upload them one
by one to get the desired effect.


This hot trend, like any other trend, is not just followed by celebrities and
Instagram influencers; it can also be followed by firms to publicize their
products and services as advertisements.


Other ways of increasing followers can include anything from using the
appropriate hashtags for pictures, particularly the ones that are trending at
that time, to posting at the right time. The trick will of course work after
several hit and run rounds. You’ll have to post at different times of the day to
find the best results. In short, nothing works more than posting aesthetically
pleasing pictures or posting on the lines of the latest trends. Creativity and
quality of content are always rewarded.
