Instagram Users?
Fof those of you that engage all the social media platforms, is Instagram one that you employ in your marketing campaigns for your website?
Instagram is mainly a spartphone/tablet app that allows you to post the pictures you take and say something about them, but it does not allow you to make them pretty. Case in point:
Is this not better than just the picture alone, even though we both look fabulous in the first image! LOLOL
Adding borders, text, and image enhancements makes your Instagram account stand out!
According to trainings on Instagram that I have been checking out, a consistent look to your images equals more engagement. Plus, using applications like Canva allow you to modify your images and make them pretty.
But, Instagram does not allow you to do that easily. You can't post these modified images to Instagram on your desktop computer unless you know some tricks.
Would you like me to share what I learned? It's really cool!
Let me know if there is any interest and I will create a training module on what I learned.

Of course, that’s awesome, I never used Instagram before, but starting now .
Thank you for your help.
I'd love to hear what you know. Thanks to Tony Lee Hamilton I started using Instagram first to get my blog out there and thanks to Lynne Huy I use Tailwind to post to Instagram 3 times a day.
You can actually set the posts up on your computer and if you do a couple of things like go to a business Instagram account and hook up Facebook to it, it actually posts automatically at the times you want.
It's really neat, but I'm always looking for new ideas to incorporate!
Thanks for stopping by and sharing Michelle! I know Tony has some great Instagram training here in WA!
I am relatively new to Instagram even though I have had an account for several years. I just started cleaning it up using some of the training from WA to do so.
I am finding everyone has an opinion on the best way to do things, so the thing to do is share what works best for each different person and niche.
Some would say that posting three times a day does not allow for users to engage the older posts. Real Instagram guru's say they post every other day and get more engagement that way. I guess that also depends on the niche.
Thanks again for the input!
Here is little training video I did. Did You Know That You Can Publish To Instagram Using Your PC or Laptop!
Thanks, Don!
That is the first thing I tried and for some reason I don't get the smartphone app buttons on the bottom like you show in the video.
So, I found another way that's pretty cool.
Sure, there is some training in WA for using instagram on a laptop but you may have some new found tips.
Thanks for stopping by!
Yes, I tried those but it did not work for my laptop using Windows 10. The key commands and other suggestions did not bring up the features to upload images from the laptop.
