It’s 2019 and everyone is looking for growth hacks and ways to increase engagement on their Instagram profiles. Everyone wants to become an “influencer” on Instagram and racing towards getting more followers and getting a better engagement rate.
With this article, we just want to give you an obvious and simple way for you to increase your engagement and followers on your Instagram profile.
The strategy is: Engage to get Engagement.

Now, this may sound really technical to some and really easy to understand to some. What it basically means is, you have to engage with other people’s content genuinely and regularly.
What this does: When you engage with other people’s content, you generate a better connection with the person’s profile. Other people commenting on the posts of those profiles, get to see your profile and you have a higher chance of getting more profile visits and turning them into your followers.
If the profiles you’re actively commenting and engaging with are following you back, it’s even better because the people who see your comments on their posts will be more likely to engage with your content.
There’s no right way to implement this strategy other than being genuinely interested in their content and leaving some comment of value in them.
Bottom line: The key to being better in social media is to actually be social.
