Instagram Promotional Thread

[BrightgemsTreasures]

Instagram is becoming the favorite of the younger crowd, taking over from twitter. Specifically, the 24-34 year old age group. Its important to have an Instagram account and to actively promote your items for sale. It also increases your SEO and relevancy on Etsy.

You will be posting links from your instagram posts. To post your Etsy listings on Instagram you must do it via your cell phone, but you can promote and heart all of the listings from your desktop CPU or notepad.

To get the link, pull up your instagram account profile on your desk top. Right or back click on the time date stamp to get the link, its similar to G+, then simply place the link here in this thread, and promote all who followed you for the last 24 hrs, or to your last post.

To promote your fellow team mates items:

1. Click on the link
2. heart the item
3. make a comment. Press enter on your key board for the comment to post.

Thats it, pretty easy and a good way to get more views and sales. Good Luck everyone. Patsy;0)

Hi Patsy good to see you revamped our instagram thread!! Ecochic has an Instagram page but there was so little interest last year I stopped promoting it......but It is so relevant right now and you have made it very easy!

Reminder to use #hashtags. Instagram is all about the use of #hashtags, as many as you can manage, and get ideas from other sellers.
You can be found through your hashtags. When you start to type ideas will appear such as #etsyseller #etsyvintage #etsyshop #vintageseller etc etc.

I have two accounts one for my skincare business which some of you may have seen and my vintagepaige account https://www.instagram.com/vintagepaige/ I have followed everyone so far.
