What free tools should you use?
We’d like to first notice that no promotional tools will work at all if you won’t put enough time and effort into generating quality content (unique content!) for your business page on Instagram. Additionally, communicating with the audience that you were able to gain. So if you haven’t yet created a content plan and didn’t upload 9-12 posts into your feed, it is time to do it now. Only after that start working on your page’s development. There should be something to develop, a half-empty page is not a decent resource for sure.- Join activity chats. If you haven’t yet heard of them, those are the chats that content creators themselves organize in Telegram and What’s App. They exchange links to the posts that need support and leave each other likes and comments. This promotional method is great for novices. Because this way they are not only gaining a possibility to improve the statistics on their profiles. They are also able to gain more business bonds to use later. You can contact content creators that you have met for organizing a mutual PR action later in time. However, the effect of such a promo option is going to be temporary. So, you have to make sure that later you will be able to gain the same number of likes and subs naturally.
- Comment on the posts of more popular bloggers and chat with their audience. This way you will be able to bribe people to go to your page. Not only that, you show them that you’re an interesting individual who’s welcoming them to their page. However, you should never try to discredit the person on whose posts you’re commenting and always be extremely polite and friendly. Such a method takes away lots of time and effort. So it is not worth using it all the time. But in the beginning, it can help you gather your first dozens of followers.
- Working with hashtags is a big part of success: in 2022 the mechanics of hashtagging have changed a lot, today it is not necessary to leave up to 30 tags under each post. You can easily go forward using only 5-10 of those. You have to make sure that you’ve left only the most decent and specific ones. Think of the words that your clients would use to describe your content or your product while they are searching for it.
