Instagram is an amazing tool you can use to express your personality for both personal and business. However many people wonder what are the best Instagram photos to post? Here are some different types of instagram photos that will allow you to help maximize your engagement and interaction.
Instagram Photos with Quotes
The first type of photo you will often see is something with a fun quote. These quotes are often motivational and inspirational. They can be so fun to read what others think people need to see. Keep these types of posts short!
Current Events
By being responsible and posting to relevant current event hashtags will pull people to you. If you combine this with good hashtags, great content and useful ideas/perspectives on things happening around us right now will help boost your posts. Make sure you are not taking advantage of social situations or current events though as that would do the opposite of what you are trying to accomplish.
Organizational Photos
There is something to be said about a well lit, fun photo of objects. This is another great way to help push forward your brand awareness. Read more about how to brand yourself if you don’t already have a personal brand established.
Seasonal Photos
There is just something fun about Christmas Lights, BBQ photos, Valentines hearts and fun loving photos around holidays that make people happy. Your audience should want to get to know you and what your family is doing. That doesn’t mean you have to always share overly personal things, but giving your audience a glimpse into your life makes you relatable. That makes people want to get to know you, and to ultimately follow you on social media.
Selfies
Look to take selfies in unique places to provide fun backgrounds. I’ve recently taken some selfies in hardware stores, craft stores, and randomly along the road. Try to mix in your unique personality with your selfies and show your audience a variety of things and unique color blends to stand out.
With all those ideas the number one characteristic of amazing content that will attract new people to your photo is the ability of your audience to relate to the photo. If you are being authentic, sharing good content, fun ideas and being genuine people are sure to find you.
Great photos and an awesome hashtag strategy are sure fire ways to get you more followers on Instagram.
