Hashtags are keyword phrases placed after #sign to help users segregate content on the basis of specific choices. Instagram advertisers can easily make use of hashtags to make their content appear on specific searches.

Hasthtags can be used both on the new as well as existing content. You just need to understand the technique to use it wisely. Use a hashtag that is extremely popular and start branding them. This will make it unique and centered around your business. Branded hashtags enhance reach and build a community of user base. Consider the use of relevant keywords for brand product categories and user interests when adding hashtags to the content.

Do not forget “Instagram Stories”
Featured with a slideshow format, Instagram stories are live for a period of 24 hours. This advanced feature offers a stiff competition to Snapchat stories. It is now greatly being used by Instagram in an influential way. By using Instagram stories, you connect to a wide audience. It keeps your followers engaged and offers them great and productive content. With the inception of Instagram stories, it has become even more interactive. Not only Instagram stories are easier to create but also they get more people to take notice of your brand. All you need is a great idea to start off.

Having a winning business profile
The most important thing to take care of is your biggest USP. It can be in the form of an event, promotion or product launch. Businesses should update the “bio section” frequently. It should clearly explain what your business does to get people take an action. To make your bio stronger, use a profile photo relevant to your brand. It is advisable to choose the right username for your Instagram account. A 150 character content must be included in the bio. You can also insert additional CTA button. This will make a difference to your marketing efforts.

Collaborate with influencers
Teaming up with the influencers is the greatest way to increase brand awareness and expand Instagram following of your business account. There are many professional bloggers and celebs with a massive following on Instagram. You can tap into their account to give your business quick authentication and trust.

Make use of user-generated content

This feature enables brands to experiment with the creativity with ad shines. Engagement is dramatically increased and an interactive content can easily be delivered to the audiences.

Getting your ads in front of the right people is one of the major business strategies. One of the greatest advantages of Instagram advertising is integration with Facebook ads. This offers businesses an access to Facebook’s advanced targeting features like location, age, gender, language, interests, custom audiences, etc. With the help of these targeting features, you can increase click-through rate and make audiences interested in your business. Before creating any ad campaign, you need to consider your targeted audiences.

Use natural images
Instagram is all about visuals. Fantastic photos is what makes any Instagram account popular. High-quality images bring sales and brand reputation. These images fit in appropriately and naturally. Having blurred images lead to distraction and also deteriorates your image.
