Okay, so if you’re struggling to get more followers, get more engagement, get more likes, comments, and all those kinds of stuff in your Instagram account. Then, believe me, you’re not alone.

I was just like you.

It took me more than 4 years to get 40,000 followers on my Instagram account and in these past 4 years, I have learned a lot. For these past 4 years, I have been posting daily on the platform.

But wait a minute. What if I tell you that you don’t need to wait up for 4 years to reach this point. I mean if you apply these things which I’m about to tell you later on in this post, then I can guaranty you that you can get more followers, get more likes, get more share, get more comments, and all those kinds of stuff. (which you just dream about)

So, without wasting any more time. Let’s just dive straight into these points.

(By the way, here’s my Instagram account: @nightowl.quotes )

How to get more followers, likes, comments, and shares on Instagram:

1. Consistency.

Sorry to say, but there's no shortcut to success. If you want to grow, if you want to get successful on this platform (not on only this platform, but on almost every single platform) then you have to be consistent with your work.

In a video about how to grow on youtube, Casey Neistat said, and I quote, “Youtube isn’t Hollywood, and I’m not Stanely Kubrick. You can’t succeed here if you’re posting once a month. If you wanna succeed here, then you have to show up for work, every single day.”

Believe me, this same goes for every single platform out there. You can’t succeed on any of these platforms if you are not willing to be consistent with your work. Those are just very few exceptions which we see that they just posted one video, and go viral. Most of us ordinary human beings have to do consistent hard work to achieve what we really desire.

So, I guess you got my point now that you have to be consistent with your work.

Well, if you’re willing to get consistent, only then read further. Otherwise, there’s no point in telling you the secrets of my growth.

(I think we have a deal right? You will be consistent with your work, and I will tell you my secrets.)

2. Relatable Content

Believe me, if you are not making relatable content then you are missing out on a lot of things. Okay, let me just show you what happens when you post relatable content.

See, one picture below is in which I have just written a normal not so relatable quote. But on the other one, I try to write a quote that is super relatable.

The Power of Relatable Content

You can see the difference yourself.

That’s the power of relatable content. When you post such content through which people can relate, they will most likely share it further. And if they share your work with someone else, then they might share it furthermore. It’s like a snowball effect. Once the ball started rolling down from the hill, it just keeps getting bigger and bigger.

So, believe me, you should have to make relatable content.

If you are in the photography niche, then you can write relatable captions, or you can try to tell stories through your pictures. And if you post quotes like me, then you can just write quotes that are super emotional and are very relatable.

In this way, you can get more eyeballs to your work and if people like your content, then they will most likely going to follow you.

(By the way, one more thing that you should keep in mind is that no one is gonna follow you if your content is not good enough. So, first, make sure to work on your content and try to make it as good as possible.)

3. Trendy Topics

You know what, Instagram is also like Youtube. I mean when something is in the trend then you might have seen this on Youtube that more and more YouTubers make videos on that topic and got tons of views.

Well, that’s exactly the case with Instagram as well.

See, in the past few months, I saw that the Peaky Blinders craze was on the top. I mean people were so much into this series that they just want to see more and more content of it.

So, I saw this opportunity and started making posts related to Peaky Blinders. By this simple strategy, some of my reels got over more than 500K views and most of my posts got over 100K impressions. (and don’t forget about the followers that those posts were driving me.)

So, that’s what I want you to do. Just dig down a little bit in your explore tab. See what kind of posts are getting more and more likes, followers, comments, and are getting shared over and over. And when you find such posts, then just try to make better versions of those posts.

Believe me, it may seem just a simple piece of advice to you. But this simple thing has helped me to get over from 20,000 followers to 40,000 followers in no time.

Conclusion

You don’t have to do a ton of things to get more followers, likes, comments, shares, and all those kinds of stuff. All you need to do is be patient and consistent on the platform. Try to post more often on the platform with complete consistency.

And along with consistency just make good relatable content on the trendy topics.

Believe me, if you can just do these three things then you’re all good to go.

(Hoping to see you on the top.)

Well, that’s just it for today. I am planning to write more articles here in the near future. So, if you like my writing then follow me to stay in touch with me.

Thank you.

Have a good day.
