It took about 2 months to get to my first 1000 followers on this account. I spent each day just liking and commenting on pictures I thought were interesting and this was enough for people to like back and even follow me. Content is king.. Engaging with your audience will bring growth!
What happens after 10k followers on Instagram?
Once you have 10k followers, Instagram will make it easier for you to get people to your website via Stories with the swipe up to link feature. Swipe up is the only way to get a direct link from your Instagram to your other web properties. And, it’s available in STORIES, if you have 10k followers.
