Hello everyone! So the other day Jamie and I were on break at school when we started to talk about Instagram. Now I literally have every single social media possible but Instagram is for sure one of my favorites. When Instagram first came out, and there were about 20 people who used it, I was one of those dorks that had it (lol). Now it’s 5 years later and I am still obsessed! What’s cool about Instagram is that you can be looking at a picture of In-N-Out burger one minute and twenty minutes later your on you cousins boyfriends sisters husbands page looking at who even knows what. It’s honestly crazy but I love it hehe. While we were talking about it, Jamie and I kept coming up with all these questions about Instagram. We decided we would make a Instagram rule list. Of course this is only our opinion but if you think I left anything out, or you agree with me, leave me a comment because I would love to know! So below is what Jamie and I have come up with:
1) If we are family or friends you should automatically, no matter what, like my pictures!
2) You should always like a persons selfie or picture of themselves because it may take a lot of self confidence for them to put that picture up. How I see it is if you can like a picture of that person’s food you can like a picture of them.
3) Do not be private! Instagram is meant for everyone to see what you post. (I honestly can’t think of a really good reason to be private but if anyone has one can you please share it with me because I actually really want to know).
4) How many times can I post a day? I say 2-3 times a day is good.
5) What is the ideal time to post? Depending on where you live I think the best time to post is midday so that way no one misses what you post!
6) Make your page consistent and have a flow. I don’t mean only post one type of photo, but have your photos look the same. For example if you use instasize or if you don’t use instasize stick with that so the page has a nice flow.
7) Tag certain locations. I love my food and artsy things so tag your pictures so your followers can also enjoy the places you went to.
8) Don’t over use the hashtags. Hashtags are great because it makes people who might not follow you find you but some times I see pictures that have over a paragraph of hashtags and its just a little to much.
9) Don’t use hashtags to delete them. This is a big thing now that you can edit posts but I think it’s kind of weird to put all those hashtags to get a bunch of likes to them delete them? I don’t know maybe its just me but I think its a little weird.
10) Always tag your friends! This way people who might not follow them can now!
11) Last but not least make your Instagram something that, when you look back on it, you remember the great memories and times you had. Live your life with no regrets and have a great time while doing it!!
So those are Jamie and my rules for Instagram. I think they are probably very standard for other people as well but if you have other ones that I forgot let me know or if you have a comment about one I made let me know also! Like I said I have literally every social media so don’t be shy come say hi. I would love to meet as many new people as I can! That being said if your new to my blog then welcome! Now since you all know how obsessed I am with fashion how can I not do a best dressed list for the Billboard awards this weekend??? So I will be posting that Monday evening instead of waiting till next Saturday to do it since the Billboard awards are on Sunday. So make sure you come back Monday to check that out. I have a feeling it’s going to be a really good one. Until then have a great weekend and go out and Instagram! Talk to you guys soon!
Sincerely, Sam
