Instagram rules

The Instagram app is constantly changing and updating. Each update adds new restrictions making it a little more difficult to follow or spam other users. Some of the policies haven't changed, Instagram is just doing a better job of monitoring and regulating their users. Instagram clearly states their restrictions under their "community guidelines section INSTAGRAM COMMUNITY GUIDELINES. They state that you should keep the content safe, clean, and acceptable for all age groups. NO drugs, NO Violence, NO nudity, No sharing photos that aren't yours, NO being RUDE!

Instagram states that they can and will delete and deactivate your account for any violations! This is not a joke! Users have had their accounts deleted without warning. Often times leaving users upset, with no answers. There have been several reported instances of accounts being deleted for apparently "no reason."

The fact is that most instagram users are in direct violations that can and will result in their accounts being suspended. Posting or bringing awareness to anything adult related or illegal is a sure way to get booted. But what about users who are re posting memes and other funny posts?

What about sharing and shouting out businesses and user accounts?

Sounds like this is a violation of the actual terms and policies. It becomes pretty difficult to run a clean and effective instagram account. If you need help contact Simple Media Marketing Solutions or fill out the lead capture page directly Request more information

Once you add the URL all you have to do is start following other real instagram accounts! Your followers will be able to see all of our posts!

We will also show you how to track your instagram hits using Google analytics! Most people using analytics have assumed that instagram wasn't able to provide many website hits. The truth is that instagram is an app, not a website. There is currently a limited web version available, but its new! Long story short, the app runs on a device (tablet, smart phone etc.) and each device uses a "browser" to open any website.... when an instagram user clicks the URL and goes to your site the actions are as if someone opened the browser and went directly to your site. Google analytics will track these hits as direct visitors! You will also be able to tell the traffic came from instagram because the app is MOBILE, meaning that the hits will come from mobile devices at the moment rather than actual computer traffic.

How can I get started on marketing my business with Instagram

How can I get started marketing my business with Instagram is a very common question. Everyday people are interested in getting more awareness traffic and website visitors for their business brand or organization. Instagram is a little-known marketing tool but currently known as one of the most aggressive and effective ways to start promoting any business brand organization.

To start promoting your business on Instagram is quick and easy. Typically you need a profile, picture a short biography to describe your business, an email account, and any smart phone or tablet to get started. 

Instagram is a simple and easy app which is why it's one of the best marketing tools available today. The app is free and you can download it to any smartphone or tablet. All you need to do to register and sign up for Instagram is provide a username and email address. 

There is little more to making ineffective Instagram account. And using that account to promote your business. Most businesses will spend a lot of time studying their industry learning which hash tags to use when posting on Instagram, how their competition promotes, and how to target new customers using the Instagram app.

The Instagram app offers several helpful tools for marketing your business. You can direct message to groups of people. Instagram allows you to follow up to 50 people in an hour. Once you follow those 50 people in a single hour you are also able to like their pictures and leave comments on any pictures that you have posted. Unlike most social networks Instagram has a single dedicated area on the users profile where they can add a link to their website.  Because of this dedicated area for your website address it actually helps funnel a lot of traffic from Instagram to your businesses website or other social accounts like Facebook or yell or something along those lines.

How many people can I follow on Instagram?

Ever wondered "how many people can i follow on Instagram?" We get that question a LOT! Currently your able to follow 7500 people (very similar to Favebooks rule for friends) this means you can start a business account and follow 7500 other accounts!! (Instagram allows you to follow 50 people per hour.)

This means you can reach 7500 targeted accounts per hour! All you have to do is find a business with the same kind of Instagram or social media followers as you want or need for your business! 

It's all about visibility! It takes about 5 minutes or less to follow 50 accounts. If you follow 50 "good accounts" maybe 20 minutes... 

7500 divided by 50 (the number of people your able to follow in an hour on Instagram) equals 150. That means means you can spend about 5 minutes 150 times and end up following 7500 accounts!! 

That means it will take about 12 and 1/2 hours (12.5 hours) of following other Instagram accounts to reach 7500!! Most accounts that follow 7500 should get about 1000 website hits a month!! 

There are many additional factors such as which hash tags you use when you post on Instagram. The number of hashtags you post on Instagram. The amount of time you spending liking and commenting on other Instagram accounts. Etc.
