The essence of ARC following in two words — a way to promote an Instagram profile without excessive time or effort, even without deep SMM knowledge. Rely on our experience and support your promotion by publishing the right content. These recommendations were prepared for that purpose…

Mandatory rules for the promotion of profiles in Instagram:

  • Always publish unique content — do not use photographs or videos “stolen” from anyone;
  • Always set only target hashtags under every post — use mainly English hashtags if your target audience speaks English. If it primarily speaks Russian, use Russian hashtags;
  • Do not promote the same profile using several following methods at the same time! If you use ARC, do not order similar services from other companies;
  • do not add bot followers to your profiles from any service. Instagram will remove these bots anyway, wasting the money;
  • always analyze people who follow you; start a conversation with each person whose interests fit, through Instagram Direct or comments on their posts;
  • manually follow profiles in your target audience and like their posts. With ARC, do not exceed 100 likes per day;
  • manually unfollow people whose posts do not interest you. Following fewer accounts makes your profile look more trustworthy to potential customers. ARC automatically removes non-reciprocal follows if their number exceeds 2000;
  • Don’t just focus on your business! If you sell Christmas trees, for example, do not fill your profile with nothing but trees. Add posts from your own life, useful tips on caring for Christmas trees, the history of the tradition of using them as a symbol of the New Year, and so on. The profile should feel alive: followers should see you, not just your products and services;
  • Publish at least one photo and/or video per day;
  • Publish no more than 3-5 photos and/or video per day;
  • Post a video at least once a week. Do not post only photographs, because video works more effectively. The owners of the most effective profiles mix their content: after publishing 2-5 photographs, they should post at least one video;
  • change tags in each new publication. According to statistics, more than half of Instagram profiles use the same hashtags - this negatively affects the effectiveness of promotion;
  • use the service of attracting Automatic Likes, which are added almost immediately after each new post appears on your profile. This method is extremely effective at getting posts into the top results for the target hashtags listed on a new photo or video;
  • always add hashtags to the description of the photograph itself, rather than in the comments below it! Use between 20 and 30 hashtags in each post;
  • RUN YOUR INSTAGRAM PROFILE WELL, OR DO NOT CREATE ONE, because this social network already has too much “junk”. Above all, our service advocates improving content quality rather than increasing its quantity;
  • Do not expect any of the Instagram promotion methods to work instantly. This social network begins to produce results only after some time. If your profile was created recently, then you may have to wait six months before you start receiving positive feedback in sufficient volume. If you carefully read the recommendations, you probably guessed that Instagram, like other social networks, will not give any positive results without your active participation. Without quality content on profiles, the effectiveness of any promotion method is reduced to zero. If you publish “some” content, then the results will also be “some”, and not the ones you expected.

Now let’s move on to specifics and describe the steps that should be taken to get the first results:

  • If you do not have an Instagram profile, create one today. Start publishing quality posts with targeted hashtags. Invite friends and acquaintances to follow, and follow people close to you or whose content interests you.
  • If your profile was created more than a month and a half ago, you can start promoting it through ARC following. If it is still too young, keep posting and inviting people to follow. Do not place large numbers of likes or follow many accounts before the profile reaches 90 days of age… Otherwise, Instagram may block it.
  • Starting today, we recommend automatic likes to help posts reach the top results for the listed hashtags. This service also works for profiles created less than 90 days ago. To decide how many automatic likes to order per post, analyse the average like count on competitors’ posts.
  • Active follower numbers matter for every profile. We developed a dedicated service, but it does not attract only a target audience: people uninterested in your content will unfollow on their own. We recommend using this method regularly to improve overall performance alongside ARC.
  • If you post videos, you should definitely add additional views. The number of views on the video, along with the number of likes, affects the position of the video in the TOP of Instagram by the target hashtags specified in the description.
  • Remember, any promotion should be comprehensive, because if you use only one of the methods, for example, auto likes for new publications, then you will not be able to achieve maximum results. Description of ARC Following
