Iam not someone who has attained the number in Millions that I can gurantee you that whatever I'll be putting up on the table will keep the ball rolling the but I believe my strategy towards it might help me ..help you.. some day to touch that figure.

Well Rubina, instagram is a portal where people are not looking for anyrhing that is lengthy, montonous and ordinary.

Lengthy in terms of that not everytime will people like a post that will be linking to your blog/website.

Monotonous because same design will make them loose imterest.

And ordinary because the picture that is being posted on instagram holds no magnetic attraction.

Had you not written this post, I would have not made an attempt to write how I perceive and work towards Insta world.

Well now the point is I have been looking at your profile for a while and what I found that you have made a standard format for the posts and you link it to substack.

Rubina that is never going to work out. Just imagine how many of insta people know about Substack...negligible!

Only the ones who are into writing they know about such portals.

Why would everyone go to substack to read a full length post. You write great but lets not overwhelm the common readers who are there on instagram to feel light and check out some good wise thing that can help them.

Yes there will be passionate readers but you don't have to work your instagram for them because they will anyhow reach substack, you have to work to get the normal readers glued to your words and that will happen when you will add value to your every single post.

I write for my blog at the back end but i create quotes and short captions and do a lot of designing stuff on CANVAS to grow my insta family. And when im ready with a blog post, I post it.

And even if you do not have much time, you can make great posts from your blogs on substack ..like take the best words and post them.

To add further to this, Instagram page is like your home. And noone knows the address of this home. If you really want people to visit your home, you will have to go out, become interactive and give value.

For that you gotta to find people of your niche, and make it a regime to comment the best that you can add on their post.

I have gained and Im gaining not merely followers but transformers actually by reaching out to people.

You will have to show your presence before souls reach you.

Trust me go patiently, honestly, diligently and above all innovatively....You will find the number going up.

Go very very creative and add what touches their soul...

Before you think of a manager I really hope my words add some sense to you.

Your post is relatable, understandable and from past few days, my mind was occupied with your agitation towards Instagram. Valid and in agreement. But I still have something to add.
