Instagram money-making tutorial

Instagram money-making tutorial

Here is a tutorial on making money on Instagram:

 

  1. Establish an attractive account foundation.

 

  • Optimize personal profile.
  • Avatar: Choose a clear and recognizable picture that can represent you or your brand style as the avatar. If it is a personal account, use a high-quality personal photo; if it is a brand account, use the brand logo.
  • Username: Be concise and easy to remember. It is best to be related to your real name, brand name or account theme. Avoid complex and difficult-to-spell character combinations.
  • Biography: Clearly state who you are or your brand positioning. Add some keywords that can reflect your personality or brand value. If you have a website, store link or other important information, you can also put it in the biography.
  • Determine content theme and style.
  • Theme positioning: Determine the account theme according to your own interests, skills or target audience, such as food, travel, fashion, fitness, photography, handicrafts, etc. The more specific the theme, the easier it is to attract specific people.
  • Visual style: Maintain a consistent visual style, including the tone of photos, shooting angles, composition methods, filter usage, etc. For example, create a warm-tone, retro-style food account. All food pictures use similar processing methods to make the entire page look harmonious and unified.

 

  1. Increase the number of followers.

 

  • Post high-quality content.
  • Content value: Ensure that each of your posts can provide value to fans. For example, a food account shares unique recipes, cooking techniques or restaurant recommendations; a travel account provides detailed travel guides and introductions to niche attractions.
  • Visual quality: Use a high-resolution device to take photos to ensure clear pictures and sufficient light. Learn basic photography and photo editing skills to enhance the visual appeal of the content, but be careful not to over-edit and maintain a sense of authenticity.
  • Copywriting: The copy should be concise and interesting and match the picture or video content. You can use methods such as asking questions, telling stories, and quoting golden sentences to attract fan interaction.
  • Utilize tag strategies.
  • Popular tags: Research popular tags related to your account theme and add them reasonably to the copy of your posts. For example, tags like #foodsharing #hottrestaurant #foodcheckin can help your food posts be discovered by more people. But don’t overuse tags. Generally, the effect is better when 3 – 5 relevant popular tags are combined with 2 – 3 niche and accurate tags.
  • Create brand tags: If you are a brand or an individual with unique activities or product series, you can create exclusive tags and encourage fans to use them when sharing related content to increase brand exposure and topicality.
  • Interact with other users.
  • Follow and like: Actively follow other users related to your theme. The number of follows per day should not be too many. Control it at around 100 – 200. At the same time, like their high-quality content to attract their attention.
  • Comment and reply: Seriously reply to fans’ comments and private messages to establish a good relationship with them. You can also leave valuable comments under the posts of other popular accounts to attract the attention of other users, but avoid advertising comments.
  • Cooperative interaction: Cooperate with other influential Instagram users to carry out activities such as mutual recommendation and collaborative content creation. For example, two fashion bloggers with similar styles can recommend each other on their own accounts or collaborate to shoot a set of outfit videos.

 

  1. Start making money.

 

  • Brand cooperation and sponsorship.
  • Find cooperation opportunities: When your number of followers reaches a certain scale (generally tens of thousands or more), brands may contact you actively. You can also take the initiative to fight for opportunities by sending cooperation proposals to brands. In the proposal, clearly state your account positioning, characteristics of your fan group, past cooperation cases (if any) and creative ideas for cooperation.
  • Cooperation methods: Common cooperation methods include product placement (displaying brand products in pictures or videos), brand promotion activities (such as holding online and offline activities to promote brand concepts), and posting sponsored posts (clearly marked with “#ad” or “#sponsored” to indicate that this is sponsored content). Forms of compensation may be fixed fees, product giveaways, sales commissions, etc.
  • Instagram advertising placement.
  • Become an Instagram advertising partner: After meeting certain conditions, you can apply to become an Instagram advertising partner and help brands place ads on your account. Conditions may include having a certain number of followers and a stable interaction rate.
  • Revenue model: Obtain revenue based on indicators such as ad impressions, click-through rates or conversion rates. You need to understand the characteristics and placement requirements of different types of ads (such as picture ads, video ads, carousel ads, etc.) in order to better cooperate with brands.
  • Affiliate marketing.
  • Join affiliate programs: Register for affiliate marketing programs such as Amazon Associates and ShareASale. Select products related to your account theme for promotion. For example, a fitness account can promote sports equipment and fitness courses; a beauty account can promote cosmetics and beauty tools.
  • Promotion method: Skillfully integrate affiliate products into your posts. For example, recommend a certain sports equipment in the copy of a fitness tutorial and attach your affiliate link. When your fans purchase products through your link, you will receive corresponding commissions.
  • Sell your own products or services.
  • Utilize e-commerce functions: If you have your own products (such as handicrafts, clothing, artworks, etc.), you can use Instagram’s e-commerce functions such as shopping tags and product catalogs to directly display your products to fans. Add shopping links to your posts to facilitate fans’ purchases.
  • Service promotion: If you provide services (such as photography services, consulting services, training services, etc.), attract customers on Instagram by showing service results, customer evaluations and other content. For example, a photography service account shows exquisite photography works and explains service content, prices and reservation methods in the copy.

 

  1. Data analysis and continuous optimization.

 

  • Use Instagram analysis tools: Instagram provides some functions for analyzing data, such as follower growth trends, post interaction rates, audience geographical location and age distribution. Regularly check these data to understand the performance of your account and find popular content and existing problems.
  • Optimize content and strategies: According to the results of data analysis, adjust your content theme, posting time, interaction methods and other strategies. For example, if you find that the interaction rate of a certain type of content is particularly high, you can consider increasing the posting frequency of this type of content; if the fan activity is highest at a certain time period, post important content at this time period.
