    7 Most Influential Social Media Platforms For Bloggers

    Since the previous Google algorithm update, social media isn’t just an option. Instead, social media had transformed into a necessity which will impact your website traffic and SEO ranking.

    And this is no secret either. The right social media platforms will help you build authority and web traffic to your site.

    I had written an article on why social engagement is more important than SEO and if you have yet to read it, I suggest you do it right now.

    There are more than 30 social media sites that you can choose from nowadays and you don’t have the time to find the best ones.

    I get it … totally.

    That’s why I have compiled the top 7 platforms for social media that will not only increase your blog traffic, but as well as assist you in terms of building authority as a blogger.

    Note: Thanks to Adam, I would like to emphasize that the criteria used to determine the standings is no other than the number of users it has. Yes, I am fully aware it is debatable but I believe this could be a good guideline for bloggers to determine which social media platform is the best for them. 

    Before you start reading, here’s a quick video recap on this topic. I hope you liked it and please share it! *p/s Do accept my apologies for the ‘loss of words’ towards the end of the video.

    The countdown for the top 7 social media platforms

    Social media plays a huge role in terms of web traffic and link building strategy.
    Focusing on the right social media platforms will increase the chances of gaining web traffic

    There are probably so many social media sites that you can choose from but the trick here is to ensure that every involvement or social engagement done have a high chance of success. Some call it ‘Return Of Investment’ aka ROI.

    You know, taking into consideration of the time spend and the traffic gained.

    An important tip I would like to share is that each social media platform works in a very different way. Therefore, you need to have the proper game plan in order to really stand out from the crowd.

    Here, I would highly recommend you to have a look at what Dave Kerpen wrote on Likeable Social Media which gained over 300 satisfied readers on Amazon itself.

    The 7th most influential social media platform: Pinterest

    Bloggers can increase blog traffic by using Pinterest
    Alike Tumblr, Pinterest is extremely popular with its ‘pins’ and ‘boards’.

    With over 70 millions users world wide, Pinterest has proved to be a great competitor to Tumblr especially in the photography world.

    How to do build web traffic through Pinterest?

    Alike Tumblr, Pinterest is a great social media tool for everyone if you uses it correctly.

    Pinterest works in very similar ways when it comes to attracting readers.

    Here’s a simple example: The hottest girl in the class will always get the most attention from boys. 

    Does this makes any sense to you?

    You have to remember that Pinterest is another social media tool that could deem very useful. Before you can actually earn some traffic and money from Pinterest, you got to practice the right techniques to display your ‘artworks’ like what Maddie Alexander said.

    The 6th most influential social media platform: Tumblr

    Increase web traffic using Tumblr by sharing beautiful images
    The right social media strategy need to be practised in order to gain traffic from Tumblr

    Tumblr as we all know is a great social media platform in terms of photography and images.

    It is doing extremely well especially by having more than 216.3 million visitors a month and 108.9 million blogs on the site.

    If you want to generate enough web traffic from Tumblr, you need to change your social media game plan … completely (almost).

    Tumblr is rich with images … and images only. You could do well in terms of text but the results wouldn’t be (at most times) that great.

    If you are looking for a trick or the ultimate Tumblr guide, you definitely came to the right place.

    Here’s the trick: There … isn’t … any trick!

    What?!

    Before you grab your 12-gauge shotgun and take an aim on me, spare me a moment to think. Tumblr is all about images and does that make sense that you need to focus on that (just) one thing?

    And yes, you are most welcome.

    Take a look at some of Tumblr’s popular blogs. You will see that they have great images and basically, that’s it!

    So the social media lesson here is —> If you want to gain traffic from Tumblr, start focusing in marketing your images. Ensure that these images are on high resolution and there’s a link back to your website.

    Again, remember that majority of the readers are looking for great images and NOT text. So, play the right social media game correctly and you will see a steady flow of traffic.

    The 5th most influential social media platform: LinkedIn

    LinkedIn provides a good social media platform especially for corporate users
    LinkedIn could be very social media tool if you are targeting corporate users

    Until date, there are about 238 million active users and this makes LinkedIn, the top 5 social media site in the world.

    I don’t use LinkedIn that much and I got to admit that.

    Depending on your niche, investing time into building a social authority with this social media platform could be a complete waste of time.

    What?!

    LinkedIn is great if you are running a business but if you are just a blogger or anything else that doesn’t really relate to business and the corporate world, you will probably not get much return from this.

    In order to benefit most out of LinkedIn, you got to know:

    • How your product could attract others?
    • What makes them (potential readers) to click on your link?

    As you can see above, you can’t just do the usual ‘social media techniques’ that never fails with LinkedIn.

    In order to ‘sell’ on LinkedIn, you need to think like a corporate user. Bear in mind that you are going to reach out to many corporate members.

    That’s why you got to change the tone and the approach methods in order to gain promising results.

    LinkedIn has quite an upper hand advantage especially when it comes to social media authority and traffic. Since the platform evolves around the corporate world, each social shares are taken seriously by others.

    Does this ring any bells?

    You are bound to get more authority and potential traffic if you are able to get social shares from large organizations. And you can probably find most of them ‘lurking’ away in LinkedIn.

    The 4th most influential social media platform: Google+

    Google+ is very famous when it comes to link building
    Google+ brought social networking to a whole new level

    Google+ is trailing closely behind Twitter with 343 million users and this makes everything more interesting.

    Some people say Facebook and Twitter are for the masses while Google+ is for specific audience. Personally, I got to agree with that.

    So, what makes Google+ so different from the rest?

    Unlike Twitter and Facebook, Google+ brings social media to the next level. There are Google+ communities where you can join and these are very specific community.

    Let’s take this community for as an example:

    Google Community offers a chance for targeted traffic in social media
    Sharing related article or blog post in the right community will guarantee a good chance of traffic

    Sharing a related blog post or article here could mean having over 900 of targeted traffic

    You might be wondering right now that 900 plus active users isn’t going to make the cut right? Think again.

    What you have here is 900 plus of active users who are (and possibly) very interested with the related topic you are going to share.

    Does this makes any sense to you?

    There you go; Google+ is a social media platform where you are able to target very specific audience for your blogs, business, niche and probably, anything else you can think of.

    The 3rd most influential social media platform: Twitter

    Twitter is one of the best social media tools for bloggers
    Share information with thousands of readers with just 140 characters

    This is my favorite social media platform … ever. For the record, Twitter is the third largest community for social networking with over 500 million users.

    Sending out a highly optimized tweet could easily reach hundreds if not thousands. And, we have not even count on the total number of retweets and favorites.

    Twitter is a great social media tool if you are looking for:

    • High possibility of huge traffic (quantity over quality)
    • Wide range of recipients
    • Word of mouth (thanks to retweets)

    You see, Twitter is for the masses. The goal is to reach out (not send out) to as many readers as possible with the hopes of reaching the right audience.

    Generally speaking, you can’t really specify who you are reaching out due to the above factors. This is definitely something you must consider if you are trying to make an epic appearance on Twitter.

    For me, Twitter isn’t a very good source if you are looking for specific traffic (as I call) but with the right tune up and social media plan, you can turn that weakness into a huge marketing success.

    Social media management techniques for Twitter are rather easy and straight forward. You got to:

    • Compose a tweet that is highly optimized
    • Within 140 characters only
    • Possibly with one #hashtag

    Now tell me. Are you doing the above?

    The 2nd most influential social media platform: Youtube

    Youtube is the best media platform if you have lots of videos to share
    A video goes viral on Youtube will drive thousands of traffic to your website

    Let’s take a look at the stats. 1 billion users and over 4 billions views a day <– Oh wow! That’s epic!

    I would be speechless if the stats aren’t able to say anything for themselves.

    Honestly, I had just involved myself in this Youtube business recently. Until date. I had only filmed and published less than 5 videos which you can find the list of videos here.

    Doesn’t seem like a world record to you right?

    The biggest question is, “Can we classify Youtube as a social media platform?”. Probably yes and no but for me, my answer would be a definite yes (hint: watch the numbers).

    People talk about how to get a Youtube video go viral or how to make a video that attracts. Truth is, there isn’t any logical way to achieve that since it depends solely on us (readers and viewers).

    Now, how do you make Youtube works for you?

    There’s a few ways I could think of which are:

    • Create a good quality video
    • Make sure the audio is clear
    • Provide annotation if possible
    • A killer title
    • Video descriptions with a link back to your site

    I am very curious here. Are you using Youtube as a social media platform?

    The MOST influential social media platform: Facebook

    Facebook is one of the leading social media sites in the world
    Facebook is an excellent platform for both leisure and business matters

    Facebook is the world’s leading social media platform with over 1.15 billions users world wide.

    Oh Lord, I really hate Facebook! It all started out with by facing problems accessing my account etc and … okay I’ll stop it now. 🙂

    Regardless how much I hate Facebook, it is still an extremely important social media tool for bloggers.

    Look at the stats again, kid. Over 1 billion users and counting … yes there are 9 zeros at the back.

    Do you see the potential that lies within it?

    You should use Facebook if you want to build a strong authority in social media and with the number of users using Facebook, I don’t think I would need to explain it’s advantages.

    Social media technique for Facebook is not that straightforward because:

    • You need to know who your target market (audience) is
    • What to promote and when to promote

    If you think that Facebook marketing is all about composing a message, placing a link and press the submit button, you are absolutely wrong!

    There isn’t any point sharing information to readers who aren’t interested with the topic. Therefore, make sure every shared information are craved exactly to and for the targeted audience.

    Facebook Videos: Who Can See Your FB Videos? The Basics

    Facebook videos are a great way to share your thoughts and experiences with friends and family. But what happens if you want to keep your video privacy protected? Or, what if you want to make sure that only specific people can see your videos?

    This blog provides information on Facebook video privacy, how to check who watched your videos on Facebook, and the different video privacy settings that you can use.

    By following the steps outlined here, you can ensure that your video stays private on Facebook and is enjoyed by only those people who you want it to!

    What are Facebook Videos?

    Facebook Videos vs Facebook Live

    Facebook videos are not Facebook Stories. But, Facebook videos are a great way to share your stories and experiences with your friends.

    They’re also an easy way to keep your followers updated on what’s happening in your life – even if they don’t have a Facebook profile.

    All you need to do is post them on your profile, and anyone who is logged in to Facebook can see them. You don’t need to add any extra tags or descriptions to make them more visible or interesting.

    Videos will appear in chronological order, so it’s important to plan your content carefully so it flows well. Facebook videos are a great way to connect with your followers on a more personal level and give them a glimpse into your life.

    So go ahead – start posting!

    How to Check Who Watched Your Videos on Facebook

    How to Check Who Watched Your Videos on Facebook

    There’s nothing like a good video capturing an audience’s attention. But what happens when you want to know who saw your video and shared it?

    Facebook has you covered!

    Just click the three lines in the top left corner of your video, and you’ll be able to see a list of people who have shared or liked your video since it was published.

    If you’d like to remove someone from this list, just send them a message and they will be removed automatically.

    You can also share public videos with friends and family by sharing via their profile pages or News Feeds!

    So go ahead and post those videos with peace of mind, tagging them properly so you can monitor the exposure and engagement!

    How Do I See How Many People Viewed My Facebook Videos?

    To view your Facebook videos, you need to log in with your account credentials and use your Facebook app. Once logged in, you will see a list of all the video posts you have made on Facebook – including public and private videos.

    You can also see how many people have watched each post by clicking on its viewership link.

    How it works on iOS

    To see who watched your videos on Facebook app on iOS, open the Videos app on your iPhone or iPad and tap on the three lines in the top left corner. In the ‘Who Viewed This’ section, you will see a group of people who have watched your video within the last 24 hours.

    You can also see a group of people who have viewed your video recently even if they haven’t clicked on it yet.

    If you want to share your video with more people, click on the Share button at the bottom of the app.

    How to work on Android

    Working with videos on Facebook can be a pain if you’re not used to using Android.

    Here’s how to share videos on Facebook from your device:

    1. Enable the ‘Share This Image’ feature in Facebook (Settings->General tab).
    2. You will now see a new button next to every image – click this and select Videos from the list of options.
    3. On the Videos page, you will see who has watched your video – public or friends only (depending on whether you’ve enabled the sharing of posts by friends only).
    4. If you want to make your video private again, just uncheck the Public box and hit Save Changes!

    Who viewed my Facebook video?

    There’s no hiding from social media anymore! As long as your Facebook video is public content and open to everyone, your friends and followers will have the chance to view and share it.

    Note that videos that have been unpublished for more than 72 hours after they’ve been published are not visible to anyone.

    That includes going live on Facebook and uploaded videos.

    And last but not least, make sure you’re following the basic Facebook video etiquette by not sharing videos that are copyrighted or sensitive in nature.

    Chrome browser plugins to find out who has seen my Facebook profile

    One of the great features of Facebook is the ability to share videos.

    However, there are some potential privacy issues that users need to be aware of. To find out who has seen my Facebook profile, I can use a Chrome browser plugin. The plugin will show me a list of people who have liked or commented on any of my posts that are public.

    This information is specific to the date and time of the post, so it’s not available for future posts. If I want to see who has seen my entire profile, I’ll need to use third-party app like DislikeLogic or ViewCountr!

    How to control who sees your videos on Facebook

    Control Who Can See My Facebook Videos

    Facebook videos are a great way to share your story and connect with friends. But what happens if you want to keep your video content private? That’s where privacy settings come in.

    You can control who sees your videos by setting privacy settings.

    By default, all users see your videos, but you can choose to share them only with friends who have been added as followers. If you’d like to limit viewers even further, you can set up an “invitation-only” mode for selected groups of people.

    In addition to controlling who sees your video, you can also choose to make your video public or only viewable by friends on Facebook who have been invited to view it. So, whether you’re new to Facebook videos or you’re just looking to fine-tune your settings, these tips will help you get started.

    Disclosing video views and likes on Facebook

    There’s nothing more satisfying than watching a great video and discovering that you’re not the only one who thinks so. That’s why it’s important to disclose video views and likes on Facebook.

    This information will help people decide if they want to watch it or not and could lead to more engagement with your content.

    Keep track of who sees your videos by logging into your Facebook account and navigating to ‘videos.’

    There, you’ll see a list of your videos and the number of views and likes each one has. It’s also important to be clear and legible when disclosing video views and likes, so viewers don’t have any trouble understanding it.

    Last but not least, make sure you’re aware of how Facebook calculates views and likes – it can be different from website to website.

    Reasons why people might want to hide their videos

    Videos are one of the most popular social media posts, and for good reason.

    They’re fun to share, engaging, and can capture powerful moments.

    That being said, there are times when people might want to hide their videos from view. This could be for a variety of reasons, such as personal privacy or criticism.

    Additionally, there are some situations where people might not want their videos seen by everyone on Facebook. To enable or disable video hiding, go to Privacy Settings (privacy shortcuts) and select Videos from the drop-down menu.

    Make sure you remember that your Facebook friends will still be able to see your Facebook posts if you share them publicly on Facebook.

    Video privacy settings explained

    There’s no doubt that Facebook videos are a great way to communicate with your friends and followers. However, video privacy is of utmost importance to users.

    When you create a video, you have the option to make it public or private. Public videos are viewable by anyone on Facebook, while private videos are only viewable by the person who shared the video with you and your friends.

    To make a video private, click on the pencil icon in the upper-right corner of the video screen. If you want to make a video private for a post or page, just hover over the post or page preview and select Privacy Settings from the dropdown menu that appears.

    By default, all videos are public, but you can change this setting if you want.

    Steps to take to make your video privacy protected

    There’s a lot of confusion surrounding Facebook videos – some people think they’re public by default, while others believe they have to make them private in order to be seen by only friends.

    The truth is, video privacy is a pretty complex topic, and there are a few steps you can take to protect your video privacy. First and foremost, you have the option to make your videos private or public.

    Private videos are only viewable by people you’ve approved as friends on Facebook, while public videos are viewable by anyone who happens to be viewing your Page, regardless of whether they’re friends or not.

    To make a video private, click the lock icon in the upper right-hand corner of the video player and type in a password that you’ll remember.

    To make a video public, leave the privacy off and it will appear in your News Feed with all of your other updates from Facebook.

There are other sites on the internet than Instagram that allow users to view private profiles, but it is important for them to understand there are drawbacks and potential security risks.

    Why People make their Accounts Private on Instagram

    A lot of people have Instagram profiles that are only accessible by their followers. This is a great way to build your Instagram following because the people who find you through your private profile will most likely follow you on the public account as well.

    You should use a private Instagram profile if you have been hacked and want to get your account back up and running without having any trace of the hacker left on your profile. Having an account that is private also helps to keep any unkind comments from strangers out of sight. You might also want to make your account private if you are a celebrity or public figure- this protects you from any potential hate groups, although it may not be enough to stay safe in some cases. If you are a business, you should always keep your accounts private because it helps to control who sees the posts.

    Want to make your Instagram account private? Here are a few steps to making your Instagram account private:

    1. Select “Settings” in the lower right-hand corner of the app.

    2. Scroll down and select “Privacy”.

    3. In the upper right-hand corner, select “Turn Off Post Notifications”.

    4. Select “On” next to the following options: ‘who can follow you’, ‘who can contact you’, ‘direct message anyone’.

    5. To make sure that no one is viewing your old posts, go to the settings page and scroll all the way to the bottom where it says “Posts You’ve liked, commented on or shared.” Toggle this setting to be off by selecting “None of my friends are seeing this.”

    Can I view a private Instagram account?

    It’s not easy to view a private Instagram account. It is possible, but it will require some work on your part. The first step is understanding why someone would want their profile to be private in the first place, which means you should ask them if they’d like you to take a look at it.

    Instagram users often make their IG account private to avoid Instagram stalkers and keeping their social accounts viewable only to a small group of people (for example, family members).

    Steps on How to see private Instagram account

    Want to know how you can view a private Instagram profile? Follow these steps to start viewing private IG profiles.

    Legitimate way to see a private Instagram profile

    The easiest and most legitimate way to view a private Instagram account is to request to follow this person. Usually, even a person with a secure profile will approve people they know, so if they know or know someone, you have to ask that person to support your application. No worries. The request is approved. When the other person accepts it, you can view that person’s profile and upload their photos to Instagram.

    This is the easiest way to access and view someone’s private Instagram account, no matter who they are. Unfortunately, however, it’s up to you, as an Instagram user, to have a pre-existing relationship with the person you’re trying to add on Instagram.

    So if you’re trying to add someone you don’t even know, like a celebrity or a friend of a friend, the easiest way to reach them is via a private message on Instagram. Sending a direct message to the user or the DM will let you know who is requesting the user to follow. The best way to do this is to tell the requested user who you are, a bit of yourself, and why you want to follow him on Instagram.

    Again, much of it is based on a pre-existing relationship with that person. If he is not there, you will have to rely on your social skills to talk to the user you want to follow. Many Instagram users will welcome new friends considerably since they can block or delete you if it becomes problematic. Just remember what you post and what this person posted. If you don’t know them and talk to them frequently even after your application has been approved, you run the risk of removing or blocking them.

    Try to find the Instagram username and real name

    If you’re on Instagram and want to find somebody’s private profile, the first thing you’ll need is their username. With this information, you can then use Google Images (or whichever search engine you prefer) to find other photos of that person online. Most of the time, these pictures will have been posted before they went private on Instagram. If you had an account with the same photo website as them and it was public too, you would be able to see those pictures there too if they’d been shared to your account or mirrored elsewhere.

    You can also use a different kind of search for other people’s images – their real name. Find their full name using Google or another search engine and you’ll be able to find other photos of them. Additionally, you can often still find a person’s Facebook profile using their real name too. This is true even if they don’t have an Instagram account and you won’t be able to access anything on it. However, in many cases, the target will have their friends list public here too so you can then find people they know and follow on Instagram.

    It’s important to remember that you’ll need their exact username to do any of this. (If you search for them by just a single name, like “John,” your results are going to be much less accurate.)

    Use Instagram viewing sites

    Google’s ways to view private Instagram profiles, and you’ll find endless results for solutions and guides, including this one! But it will also point you to several websites with dubious names that promote the ability to view private profiles in just a few simple steps. . The terms of these sites are like ‘WatchInsta’, ‘InstaSpy’, and ‘Private Instaviewer’. They all seem to promise the same general idea: Instagram is marked as private without any additional steps, payments, or Use your website to access accounts.

    Unfortunately, after Google has tried some results from the first page or two search results, we do not recommend using these sites. Ideally, these come from suspicious environments, which often obscure the company name behind the site. Despite the promise of “free” results, they often call for a survey or sweep that requires a credit card or other form of payment. Some sites also appear to be linked, revealing names, but then when the survey request becomes heavy, another site’s name hangs. We cannot recommend that you use any of these sites when their backgrounds are obscure or that they hide their authenticity on their website. Please stay away from these sites; They are nothing but worries in your account. If you’ve tried to add someone to Instagram with a friendly message and still can’t access their account, there’s always an option left, although it’s hard to recommend it to users.

    Important Instagram rules to follow (to see private Instagram account)

    It is important to note that fake accounts violate Instagram’s Terms of Service. There are no additional legitimate (i.e., correctly identified) accounts. How will Instagram know you’re using real fake accounts? Because other visitors conspired to complain about the users they thought were (right or wrong) that they were fake. In particular, Instagram considers identity theft (using someone else’s real name and imitating their service) a severe violation and will go after the imitators. In a moment, we will see why this is necessary and how to fix it.

    If you choose to create a fake ID, here are some ways to gain more acceptance from a private Instagram account holder. Select a female profile photo for your fake account. It is presented as more friendly and secure. The choice to use female identities on Instagram makes the performance feel less predatory than the male account, although this can cause problems on its own. Add real photos to your fake Instagram account. You can also use your fake Instagram ID to create a private account. If the private Instagram account you want to follow doesn’t approve your request to follow them, then that person is a DM. Make it clear that you would like to follow them on Instagram and for your reasons. Theoretically, you can do this in or out of character.

    If you have any confusion about private Instagram accounts or how they work, ask the person who manages their private account. that way you will be able to tell whether you are on the right track.

    Disclaimer: View private Instagram account with unethical reasons are not recommended

    This tutorial is about “how to view a private Instagram profile” and it should be used properly.

    Less legitimate way to view private Instagram profiles

    There are many different ways to view a private Instagram profile, but it depends on the intention. Again, we do not wholeheartedly recommend these methods. These are immoral in most cases and potentially illegal in others, but it depends more on the intention. There are some advantages, but if you claim someone else online, it is fraudulent.

    There are some ways. I’m gonna give you all the methods that I have personally used over the years to see if they still work. But first, it depends on why you want to get into someone’s account. You can use one of these methods for curiosity or for a good reason like sharing pictures with your friend who is blocked.

    The slow way (and probably safe way)

    The easiest way to view a private Instagram profile that you have been denied is by creating a new email address, a new Instagram profile with a fake name, and personalize that account. You have to send a membership request to the group. Instagram spammers regularly use this technique and spend hours circling possible passwords and naming all the members of their imaginary empires. Each device can have up to five separate terminals so unless you have created an account already, you should have plenty of available slots.

    Once you have a new account (you’ll need your unique email address but Google Mail makes it easy), send the request to the private account that you want to track ۔ You can send the first DM to break.

    Warn the moderator and the private account owner that a new person is coming. If you have been denied access to an account for one month, registration must be approved if you do not suspect that this is your marketing account.

    The slow way to view a private Instagram profile that you have been denied is easy and works sometimes. What do we do if they aren’t?

    The Trojan Horse

    To view a private Instagram profile, you will first need to create a fake username. If it is a personal account of somebody famous, make sure that the fake username looks very natural. You should then try to start following their account and don’t act too suspicious. When they follow back, you can now view their private account and look at all the content they didn’t want to share with other people.

    Just be sure not to act in a way that they will find out. Try to comment on the pictures you like, follow others and just have fun with them. Don’t overly interact with them or comment too much on their photos. If you view a private Instagram profile correctly, ​​they should never know what’s going on.

    In the game where I was playing, one of the users had their account protected. At that point, it started to become a problem because we wanted to ask some questions in private and it became very difficult to do so because we could only comment on their public posts and they didn’t answer them. It is possible to do this without having your profile visible to the public, which is a huge privacy risk for your account. This way we can be sure that our photos and videos won’t end up on social networks or blogs like Tumblr, Reddit or 4Chan.

    The Doppelganger

    Make Fake Instagram Profiles
    ~Make Fake Instagram Profiles

    Doppelganger is a creature of myth and folklore, a shipbuilder who can take the form of anything he touches. Our Doppler doesn’t have that much magical power, but it does work very well. Think about it for a minute. The owner of the private account now accepts and approves without thinking about what kind of Instagram account.

    The answer is, accounts that he has already authorized but will reappear in the approval queue. People stop following and continue all the time. It may be a little annoying to see your friend John’s account and ask him to come back, but he will gladly accept it.

    So how do we get your friend John’s account? The answer is that we don’t, but we make it fake. There are two major issues with creating a “duplicate” account. One, it’s one of the most significant crimes about which Instagram is struggling to do something. Two, we don’t know who the duplicate accounts are! Private funds do not show up when browsing your follower’s list, so there is no way to know who is following them.

    The best way to view a private Instagram profile is to follow the person from their actual performance. Once you’ve followed the user, they will be able to view, like, and comment on your posts. You can also send them a private message explaining why you want to follow their account. Or you could do both.

    Another possible route is copying someone’s account with an exception- if the user doesn’t use their real name for their username. This needs official approval in the group and will require renaming your Instagram (along with changing your photo). Bill Okishoot disappears, while Larry_Kinner takes his place- no one’s sensible.

    Doppelganger-ing your target correctly will almost certainly take you to the private account you need to access. Use wisely.

    Suppose you’re looking for a way to view your account without taking any drastic measures. In that case, you can just head over and try following them first. If they then might happen to follow you back, then your account will be viewable and set for public viewing.

    In general, the best course of action is to reach out to the user you want to follow first. They might include you if there’s a shared connection or an existing friendship. Instagram is a very positive social community of photographers and users sharing their experiences on social media.

    Insta Looker

    Insta Looker is a free, easy-to-use tool to view private Instagram profiles without any difficulties or hassles. This spy tool is also safe to use and won’t cause any issues for the user.

    InstaDPS

    InstaDPS is also another good way to see private Instagram photos. You need to enter the username and hit the Get Profile Photo option. The tool will try to find the photo and show it if it’s successful. You need to right-click the image to download it on your system.

    IGLookup

    IGLookup is a tool that only has a few downloads and no payments. It can be used to view private Instagram profile photos. The user just needs to go to iglookup.com and enter the account name of a friend or person whose Instagram profile you want to view. Click search for private photos and wait till it loads all the images. Now, click the download button shown on the right side and then select .jpg photo to save them on your PC.

    Private Photo Viewer

    Private Photo Viewer is also one of the best free services available for viewing a private Instagram account without a survey. With this tool, you can search for any username of your choice and find all the associated photos or videos with that account easily. Since it is easy to use, you can access your own private Instagram account with Private Photo Viewer too.

    ImageRocket

    The ImageRocket website is a service for downloading Instagram photos or viewing private profiles quickly. You’re redirected to the user’s profile, which displays the person’s latest posts and a photo verification display at the top of the page.

    We noticed a problem with this tool. For example, when you enter in someone’s public profile name, the system will still show it as private and ask for verification or do the human security check to see that person’s images. However, accessing their Instagram profile directly may provide access to those same pictures.

    Private Insta Viewer

    Private Insta Viewer is another free tool to view a private Instagram account. After entering the username, you need to verify as a human by participating in the survey so that only the private profile of entered username will be visible.

    A Bonus Way to View Instagram Accounts that are Private

    As a perk, here is an extra strategy that helps you to view a private Instagram account even without having an Instagram account yourself.

    Run a Search Engine Check

    Now, if you have the log-in name for your private Instagram account and it’s not a hassle to run a Google search – or another type of internet search on an Instagram user – then that is still an option.

    A simple Google/other search will tell you if someone is who they say they are since all posts are date stamped.

    I’m not saying that running a search would give you access to the account, but it will give you an idea of what information is found on the service. You don’t need to download an application with this method; just select your desired level of access and then scan for items with the basic criteria set up by yourself.

    If you don’t know the log-in name, and don’t want to worry about making a fake profile on Instagram, then this isn’t going to work for you either. However, it can be helpful at times if you are familiar with your subject’s Instagram username.

    How to be consistent on Instagram?

    The first step is to post at least once a day. A popular photo can generate up to 450% more engagement than an unshared post, which means your followers will be much happier if you post regularly!

    Plus, it’s worth noting that there is no limit as to how many posts are allowed on Instagram. You can post as many photos and videos to your account as you want, so feel free to fill up your followers feeds with all of the updates they need!

    The next step is to be engaged. When other people like or comment on your posts, make sure that you take a moment out of your day to give them some love too. It doesn’t take much time to leave a comment or like someone’s post and it could make all the difference in their day!

    Lastly, be consistent. Keep your followers interested by using our tips on what types of posts get shared more often (and for better results) so you can grow Instagram followers organically with ease!

    How to tag and grow your Instagram followers?

    Fun fact about tagging other Instagram users: One of the most popular ways to grow your followers is by tagging them in one of your posts. You can tag up to 30 people per post, and it’s worth noting that you’ll get a notification each time someone tags you or re-posts one of your photos.

    When it comes to tagging people, here’s one nifty trick you can use to grow your Instagram followers organically.

    When you tag someone else on Instagram, it’s a good idea to mention them by name in the caption. If they’re following you, they’ll automatically be notified and have the opportunity to check out your post. To tag someone easily – just type their username into the search bar at the top of your screen and then select them from the results.

    Since Instagram is a mobile-only app, tagging someone in your post will automatically notify them via push notification and they’ll have an opportunity to follow you back with just one tap on their phone.

    If there’s someone who doesn’t use Instagram but you’d like to tag anyway, send them a Facebook or Twitter message.

    Grow your Instagram followers by sharing the real you

    The “real” you is what will set your account apart from the rest. Not every post needs to be a selfie, but each should show some aspect of who you are as an individual. Share photos that speak to how you live and love on a day-to-day basis – share pictures of when life throws challenges at you, or when you’re having fun and being silly. The more people get to know who you are through your Instagram posts, the more likely they will want to follow along with what life is like for you day-to-day.

    Instagram doesn’t have to be just food and travel. It can also be about the little moments in life, and that’s what will make your account stand out.

    If you want to grow your Instagram followers organically on a budget, then use these tips:

    • Share authentic photos of yourself – not always selfies! Remember that people don’t just follow other people for their food accounts. They want to see who you are, how you live and love on a day-to-day basis.
    • Share photos that speak to your passions – if you have an interest or hobby, post about it! The more people get drawn into what makes up the life of someone else (that they don’t know), the chances are they’ll follow you.
    • Share your own point of view – don’t just post what other people tell you to share, or what everyone else is posting on Instagram already. Be different and create a niche for yourself that others can relate to!
    • Talk about where you’re going next – if you have any upcoming travel plans (or even if you don’t!), share photos that speak to your experiences. People want to know what inspires their favourite people and they’ll follow you out of curiosity or simply because it’s nice knowing someone as a friend.

    Use hashtags to grow your IG followers

    You can also use hashtags to get more eyes on your content. Hashtags are words or phrases that you add in front of a word, and they help people find posts with similar topics so they can follow your feed even if it’s not the most popular account. Say for example you’re posting about mountain biking – adding hashtags like #MTB or #Mountainbike could help you find people who love mountain bike and it will also bring your post in front of their feed.

    Want to learn more about using hashtags for Instagram? Here are some additional nifty tricks:

    • Use hashtags (#) on the caption bar below the picture, tagline and location
    • Add a few relevant hashtags per photo’s content
    • Incorporate hashtags that are popular in your niche
    • Don’t use more than 12 hashtags on a single post
    • Create an Instagram mood board of various tags for inspiration

    Engage with others by liking and commenting on their IG content

    Do you know that engaging with others will grow your Instagram followers organically? Here’s how it is done correctly (and a few other awesome tips to make your IG feed very likeable!

    1. Find a niche and your followers will find you.
    2. Look for hashtags that are popular in your industry to grow and engage with other people within the same space.
    3. Reach out to influencers who have similar audiences as well, they may be willing to cross promote each others accounts or collaborate on social campaigns together.

    Being actively commenting and liking will help you build trust and the visibility you needed to grow your Instagram account.

    Be yourself (and stop faking it)

    Want to grow your Instagram followers quickly? Be real and be yourself! As you post content on your Instagram account, be honest and authentic. If you’re not being real with what inspires or moves you in life, then chances are your followers will see right through it.

    Be yourself by sharing who you really are to the world! When a follower sees that they can relate to something about your posts (or as an extension, your personality), they are more likely to want to become a follower.

    A great example of this is when you post something on Instagram that inspires you or makes you laugh so hard that tears come out of your eyes. You’re sharing what moves and motivates YOU in life – which might be different than someone else’s view on the world – and those who follow you are able to see that.

    Try not to bombard your followers with too many posts every day, either – waiting a few days between each post will allow for more time in between posts (which can make them seem fresh), as well as give you the opportunity to edit or add new content whenever it’s ready!

    Hey, we are all humans too!

    Hey, we are all humans too!

    Once you achieve your first milestone, say 5000 followers, it is important to analyze Instagram follower demographics so that you can tweak your approach according to your audience’s preferences and determine the best way and the right time to post. The analytics will give you specific details about your followers, including gender, age, location, the amount of time they spend on Instagram and the days of peak activity. Based on these insights, you will be able to create and post content for maximum engagement and exposure.

    Summary: How to grow your Instagram followers organically?

    There are many ways to grow your Instagram followers organically. Apart from the options above, here are some other tips you can use to grow your Instagram account quickly.

    1. Take a break from your account. You may think that you want to be on Instagram all the time but in reality, it makes sense for much of this time spent to be offline and reach out to other people who are not on social media at all. This will allow you to grow followers organically because they’ll start following back when they see you frequenting Instagram again.
    2. Create captivating content that is worth following and don’t be afraid to go against the grain from time to time. Sometimes, your target audience will appreciate this because it feels different from what they are used to as opposed to just posting another picture of a cat or beachscape.
    3. Include hashtags in your posts. Hashtags are a form of categorizing content and they help other users find you if they search hashtags related to what you’re posting about. This is one way that people may grow followers organically because it will allow them to be found by lots of new people who would have otherwise never seen their account in the first place and therefore never followed them.
    4. Do NOT post too often. Posting too much can make followers unfollow you and unlike your page which has the potential to make your account seem spammy.
    5. Post high-quality photos, consistently and often.
    6. Give people a reason to follow you by adding interests to your profile page or including an email signup form somewhere on your site so that they can stay informed with the latest posts from you!
    7. Provide excellent customer service/support for those who follow you.
    8. Be unique and consistent to grow followers organically!
    9. Offer email signup in order for people to know when your latest posts go up. Some of the most successful accounts on Instagram have 100k+ emails that they send out every time a new post goes live, which is what makes them seem more legitimate, since people can’t follow the account if they don’t have an email address.
    10. Offer incentives for followers to share your posts! Provide a coupon code or offer access to exclusive content in return for sharing your post and tagging you in it so that other users know who is responsible for the information provided.
