5. Use Appropriate Hashtags

As we all know, Hashtags has served as a great tool in help us to extend our social reach. But its not like that you will use anything as a hashtag. Foe example, The #Love has 184 million photos connected to it so if you are using this hashtag in your posts, it means you are showing your 1 photo in 184 million photos. First you have to do research about which keywords related to your content are in trend at that time. 

As you can see in above post, For example, M&Ms does a great job at focusing hashtags to an event where they are participating. By using hashtags like #mmspotlight, the brand targets its audience more directly where the spotlight concert event happens and creates awareness.

6. Make Your Followers Happy 

Last but not least, when you make your Instagram followers happy, you see the payoff in audience growth. Don’t forget to provide content to your followers as if they were friends on your personal feed: this might include posting memes, inspirational content, or just re-sharing interesting photos or artwork (all properly credited, of course) that can give your followers a little mental pick-up during the day.

LASTLY....., Your account is dependent on how much followers take interest in your account. If your page is doing good, never think that I should stop posting now, this will bring you to the ground. Consistency on content is must whether your page has 100k followers or 0 followers.
