3 tips to get followers on Instagram without paying for it

by Aariya r. marketing
The number of Instagram users does not stop growing and all online stores should be present on the platform. But what is the use of presence without people following your account? Here you will find three tips that will help you get new followers without paying for it. 
One option is simply to buy followers. This is a way to increase the number of followers we have. However, this method is not advisable, as it is not advisable to buy positive valuations. Although spam bots and dubious agencies promise you paradise, you should never buy followers . It is clear that at first glance it impacts that your online store has 10,000 followers, but the effect does not match if for each image you post you just get a few "I like it". The false followers that you buy do not interact with your content: they do not like your things, they do not comment and, what is especially important, they are never going to buy you anything. And not only that.  As you well know as an experienced online marketer, the element of trust is one of the most important drivers of electronic commerce. With false followers you undermine the trust that online shoppers give you. Instead of following this path, you will have more success in the long term if you let your number of followers grow naturally. Post images, cross your fingers and wait for new followers can work, but you can also make use of our three tips and accelerate the growth of your Instagram account.   
 1. Help chance ...   As we have already mentioned, you can use Instagram relatively passively, just to publish a couple of images and videos. Your potential customer may find your account. However, this passive tactic will not increase the number of followers and sales volume. Rather, you'll have to stay active to help a little bit by chance. You want followers that are active and can become your satisfied customers, right? Luckily, these can be detected relatively easily.  
  1. Search for competing companies that are already on Instagram
  2. Click on Followers
  3. Here is a list of people who are interested in what you offer (and your competence)
Now you can interact with the people on this list. This means that you can "Like" your photos and leave comments. In this way, you quickly call attention to your online store and reach potential customers who otherwise would not have heard of your store. Everyone (less influencers with thousands of followers) is happy that they like their photos or receive comments and look at who is the account that comments. Something you have to keep in mind: it 's important that your comments do not look like spam. There is no doubt that it is worth taking the time (about 10-15 seconds) to leave a comment that is more than a heart emoji or a simple "Good photo!". Try to make sincere compliments with humor and helpful comments that stand out from others. You also have to think that Instagram is an informal social platform. This allows you to communicate with the clientele in a different (and freer) way, something that is definitely recommended to get on the wave of the platform.
   2.  #hashtags A typical Instagram publication consists of the following:  
  • The picture
  • A text that has something to do with the image
  • Hashtags or labels
Similar to what happens with the Google search terms, hashtags are tags that ensure that users who do not follow us can find Instagram posts. If a user searches for #moto, they will find images and videos of motorcycles. Therefore, hashtags are a tool that must be used in any case to get followers. Any word can be a hashtag, but you have to keep in mind that the one you choose must have to do with your image, your online store and your brand. That is, if a user searches for #moto and discovers a publication of your account in which no motorcycle appears, but golf clubs, you will not transmit any positive effect. Following the idea of "shoemaker, your shoes", you have to choose hashtags adapted to your store and your products. Only then will you gain loyal followers in the long term. As with SEO, there are terms with a lot of competition and others with very little. General terms like #love #fun and #fashion are extremely cool. If your posts do not regularly generate several hundred likes, the chances of you getting much relevance with those hashtags are slim. The least contested hashtags are, in general, those specific to a sector (such as #palosdegolf #puttingwedge and #drivingrange), and offer the potential to gain truly interested followers. Who will look for #drivingrange if you are not interested in golf? Also for the hashtags the first advice can be used. Likewise, it is recommended that we ourselves search for relevant hashtags for our store and interact with them.   
3. That store so beautiful and close Speaking of interacting: that's the third tip. It is important to publish regularly. At best, even daily. However, who wants to gain followers and loyal customers, should do more. The thing does not end with having won a follower. You have to stay in the game. You have to see it like this: Someone has seen your Instagram account, your posts are attractive and the user decides to follow you, "Like" and comment. It's just what you want. It's time to rejoice for getting a new follower and publishing images with dedication. But also in this case you have to give and receive. The impression given is much better if you also care about that person who has started to follow you. Do not leave without responding comments to your publications. Otherwise, your followers will feel ignored and not valued quickly. You also have to be aware of reacting to the publications in which you have been tagged. For example, this can be an image of a satisfied customer and a product that you have purchased in your store. Many customers use the social media channels of brands and online stores to ask technical questions. It is also important to respond in this case, it does not matter if you refer customers to technical service or answer directly on Instagram.   
Conclusion In a time when automation, artificial intelligence and bots do not stop advancing and being present, the human aspect counts more and more, also on Instagram. If you treat your followers or potential customers on Instagram in a friendly and close, they will thank you with fidelity and pocket. The accounts of most successful brands are very carefree, interact with followers and react to current events. However, if you want to get the most out of Instagram, you should make use of its advertising. With the help of paid ads you will quickly increase the volume of sales and the number of people to reach.
