And, of course, a very respectable selection of cats.</div> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Meta Serif", serif; font-size: 21px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: 33px; margin-bottom: 32px; outline: 0px !important; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: none;"> <nobr style="outline: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: none;">Fast-forward</nobr> several years, and it’s almost impossible to imagine it without ads, influencers, filter presets, and meticulously arranged layouts. In 2019, Instagram is so much more than an <nobr style="outline: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: none;">image-sharing</nobr>app — it’s a place to make money.</div> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Meta Serif", serif; font-size: 21px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: 33px; margin-bottom: 32px; outline: 0px !important; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: none;"> In just under a decade, Instagram has become the <a href="https://www.dreamgrow.com/top-15-most-popular-social-networking-sites/" rel="nofollow noopener" style="color: #0064b8; cursor: pointer; outline: 0px !important; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: none; transition: color 0.1s linear 0s;" target="_blank">third</a> most popular social media platform in the world, with Kylie Jenner’s posts alone worth over <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/kylie-jenner-instagram-posts-value-million-dollars-influencer-followers-kardashian-a8335991.html" rel="nofollow noopener" style="color: #0064b8; cursor: pointer; outline: 0px !important; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: none; transition: color 0.1s linear 0s;" target="_blank">$1 million</a> in equivalent traditional ad spend. But the goods news is, you don’t need to be an heir to the Kardashian fortune to monetize your Instagram. All you need is a solid followership and a little <nobr style="outline: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: none;">e-commerce</nobr> <nobr style="outline: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: none;">know-how.</nobr></div> <h2 style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 32px; line-height: 40px; margin: 45px 0px 18px; outline: 0px !important; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: none;"> What You Should Know to Monetize Your Instagram</h2> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Meta Serif", serif; font-size: 21px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: 33px; margin-bottom: 32px; outline: 0px !important; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: none;"> You may think that it’s strength in numbers: the more followers you have, the better. But that’s not exactly true.<br /> <script async="" src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script> <!-- hkbalalika_main_AdSense7_728x15_0ads_al_s --> <br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" data-ad-client="ca-pub-5000840460921388" data-ad-slot="3790293827" style="display: inline-block; height: 15px; width: 728px;"></ins><script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script></div> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Meta Serif", serif; font-size: 21px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: 33px; margin-bottom: 32px; outline: 0px !important; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: none;"> If you buy 20,000 bots, you’ll definitely have a lot of followers. But bots can’t interact with your content. And what’s the point of posting content that your audience can’t interact with?</div> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Meta Serif", serif; font-size: 21px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: 33px; margin-bottom: 32px; outline: 0px !important; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: none;"> Real social media strength is in engagement. Followers sharing your posts, commenting regularly, tagging their friends… All of these can earn you money — whether you have 500 followers or 500,000.</div> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Meta Serif", serif; font-size: 21px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: 33px; margin-bottom: 32px; outline: 0px !important; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: none;"> And each of the tactics we’ll discuss here today rely on this active human followership for success.</div> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Meta Serif", serif; font-size: 21px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: 33px; margin-bottom: 32px; outline: 0px !important; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: none;"> So the first thing you should do is work on your “engagement rate.” To calculate engagement rate, take your total number of likes and comments, divided by your total number of posts, divided by followers, multiplied by 100.</div> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Meta Serif", serif; font-size: 21px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: 33px; margin-bottom: 32px; outline: 0px !important; text-align: left; text-size-adjust: none;"> For reference, a <nobr style="outline: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: none;">2-3%</nobr> engagement rate is considered average, while a <nobr style="outline: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: none;">4-6%</nobr> rate is considered high.
