Clever Ways to Get More Comments on Instagram

Clever Ways to Get More Comments on Instagram


Instagram is one of the biggest social media platforms today, with over 1 billion monthly users worldwide.

With so many users on the platform and the ocean of posts being published every second, odds are you’re getting fewer and fewer comments and engagements on your posts. Worse, some of your posts may not be reaching your desired audience.

But with the right strategies, you can level up your Instagram comments rate and watch your notifications go wild.

If you’re not getting enough comments on your Instagram posts, keep reading. In this blog post, we listed down some tips to help you get more comments on your posts.

Create Quality Content

Instagram centers on photographs and captions. Many businesses embrace Instagram because it allows them to feature their products and services. To get the most out of your posts, you want to feature your products in the best possible light. If you own a restaurant, we recommend posting pictures of your signature item menus.

Instagram users respond to beautiful, captivating photos. If you feature delectable dishes, not only will it will garner more likes and comments, they can also drive customers to your restaurant.

Make Use of the “Videos” Properly

Instagram started out as a photo-sharing app, but eventually, they realized the power of video content. Now, Instagram offers a full suite of video options — from a standalone 60-second video to reels, live, and IGTV. The most successful brands on Instagram are the ones who capture videos, so be sure to explore each of these video formats.

If you’re running a bakeshop, you can post a video of you preparing some bread or pastries. Show them how your products are made. Consumers like it when they get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look. If you’re a plastic surgeon, you can record a video and share educational content to potential patients who might be interested in undergoing certain procedures.  This will likely attract more comments.

Ask a question

Social media involves 2-way communication. While it’s a great place to promote your products, services, and upcoming events, you can also use it to get the opinion of your target audience. To earn more comments and prompt responses, ask your followers a question. You can seek their advice or simply ask them if they agree or disagree on a certain topic. Asking questions on your captions makes your audience think of a response.

Hold a contest

A fun and easy way to get more Instagram comments are to hold a contest. If you take a look at the social media accounts of different businesses, you will notice that the most liked and commented posts are all contests and giveaways. Come on, who doesn’t love giveaways?

Before you get too exciting planning your giveaway, be sure to set a goal. You can create the coolest contest in the world, but if you don’t know what you’re looking to achieve, then it won’t do you any good. Also, be sure to give away something that would be of value to your target audience. People are more likely to put some effort into your content if you have an amazing prize.

If you’re running an Instagram giveaway, this blog post might help give you some direction.

Final thoughts

Posting regularly on Instagram isn’t enough to get more comments and engagements. You’ll need to put more effort into creating comment-worthy posts.

Engagement is a great indicator of how well your posts perform. The more likes and comments your posts have, the more Instagram likes you. As a result, more people will see your posts.

Tips for Writing Better Social Media Posts

Most businesses use social media to promote their products and services and build a relationship with their target audience. What you share on social media can have an impact on your online marketing results, but knowing how to properly write content that your audience will love and share will help elevate your social media game.

Now, it’s time to get writing. Implement these tips when writing social media content to help boost engagement and make your posts stand out from the rest.

Use high quality photos

Make the most out of every post by adding an eye-catching photo to it. Studies suggest that social media posts with photos get an 87% interaction rate from users. Remember, the more likes, comments and shares you have on a post, the greater the reach. Make sure that the photo you’re using is compatible with your content. Use different types of photos and messages to see which ones your audience responds to.

Craft share-worthy posts

According to studies, 1.3 million pieces of content are posted on social media every minute. Because of this, social media posts have very short lifespan. Unless your content is interesting enough, these posts won’t be seen by your followers.

Create posts that are worth passing along. You already know who your target audience is and what topics they are interested in. The most share-worthy posts usually fall under these categories – entertainment, assistance, analysis, and information.

Use as few words as possible

Writing social media post is a lot harder than it looks. This is especially true in social media platforms like Twitter, since you’re only allowed to use 140 characters. But did you know that Tweets with 70 to 100 characters get the most retweets?

Although Facebook has a limit of 477 characters before it will show “read more” or “see more”, experts suggest writing shorter posts. In fact, they believe that 40 is the magic number to keep in mind when creating Facebook posts. 40 characters is not much at all, but these posts receive 86% higher engagement than others. That said, you need to choose your words wisely. Make every word count.

Tips for Creating a Hashtag for Your Marketing Campaign

tips-for-creating-a-hashtag-for-your-marketing-campaignThese days, hashtags are everywhere. We see them in advertisements, in weddings, on our newsfeeds. We even see them on the corner of our TV screens when we watch our favorite TV shows.

Creating a hashtag for your business can have a lot of benefits. It gives users a new way to get in touch with your business and spread the word about an upcoming event, your products or services. Of course, these things can only be achieved with an effective hashtag.

Here are some tips for creating a hashtag for your marketing campaign.

Less is more

When creating a hashtag, always remember that less is more. Come up with something short and brief. You may use a few words or a short phrase, but make sure it’s not too. Two to three words is ideal.  Long hashtags can be tricky to read and easy to misspell. Remember, the shorter, the better.

Be unique

Sure, there’s no rule that says you can’t use an existing hashtag. But if you opt for a hashtag that is currently being used by another company, this may create confusion among people.

Since there are millions of active social media users all over the world, it can be difficult to create a unique hashtag, but it’s doable. Use your creativity. Alliteration is your friend.

Double-check your hashtags

Make sure you check across different social platforms to make sure that it doesn’t already exist. If another brand is already using it or if you find thousands of posts with the hashtag you have in mind, then you might want to come up with a new one. But if there are only a few posts, then go ahead and claim the hashtag.

Make sure it’s relevant

You may have successfully created a unique hashtag, but it won’t benefit your marketing campaign if it has nothing to do with your brand. Make sure you create a hashtag that is relevant to what your company has to offer.
