There are multiple ways in which we can keep our privacy on Instagram. For example, if you don’t want people who you don’t know to see your stuff, you can simply set your profile to private. But, there are also other options that allow you to restrict your followers from doing certain things. And commenting on your posts is one of them. Today you will learn how to block comments on Instagram in a few simple steps. Block comments on Instagram – For all your followersSometimes, people like to take a little rest from certain things on Instagram. Especially, those who have a large fan base. For example, having tons of followers commenting on your posts 24/7 could become quite overwhelming. Fortunately, there’s a way for users to block comments for everyone on Instagram. However, there’s a downside to this. At present, Instagram doesn’t have an option from where users can turn off comments for all of their posts. So, in order to block comments in general, you have to do it individually. In other words, this means that you have to do the following step for every post you upload to Instagram. So, here’s what you need to do. Go to the post where you want to activate the comments restriction function, and tap the three dots above it. Then, just tap where it says “Turn off Commenting” and that’s it. But, remember, if you truly want to restrict everyone from commenting, you have to do this for every post. Block comments on Instagram – For a particular personSo, what if you don’t want to restrict all of your followers from commenting on your stuff? Evidently, Instagram is full of people who want nothing other than to spread hate. However, there are also people who consistently comment about good things – people who encourage you to keep growing and succeed. Well, you obviously want to keep the comments from all of those people. And here are the steps you need to follow to accomplish that. First of all, open Instagram on your phone and go to your settings. Then, scroll down to the privacy and security section. After that, tap where it says “Comment controls.” And finally, tap the option “Block comments from.” Doing this will allow you to type the name of the people you don’t want to be commenting on your posts. Additional TipLast of all, Instagram does also allow you to restrict specific types of comments. As a matter of fact, you can choose to hide comments that contain certain words or phrases that you don’t like. To do this, simply enter “Comment Control” again, and tap where it says “Manual filter.” Then just type the words you don’t want people commenting – et voilà!

Of course, at the time, this was something quite new. So much so, that people went nuts about it. Nevertheless, time passed and the photo-sharing app went through some changes. Instagram photography became a thing, and Instagram business too. But, did business overcome photography? Well, it would seem so. However, the world of photography has changed a lot thanks to Instagram. And here is what you need to know. PhotographyFirst of all, let’s cover the definition of the word photography. According to Wikipedia, the word photography refers to the art of creating durable images. Of course, there is much more behind the meaning of such a word. However, the one thing that we should care about is the fact that photography is a synonym of art. Therefore, we can say that photography is a concept in which people stop to appreciate what is captured by a camera. The art within an image. But what does all this have to do with Instagram? Well, Instagram is and will continue to be the second largest social media platform where people upload photos. In fact, over 60 million photos are uploaded to Instagram every day. In short, we as users stop to appreciate the millions of photos uploaded to the platform. And that is where Instagram takes part in the evolution of photography. Instagram Influence On PhotographyIt’s been 8 years since Instagram entered our lives. Since then, a lot of things have changed. Of course, photography, being the main characteristic of Instagram, evolved. In fact, it seems like yesterday when people started to take more food photos instead of family ones. Year after year, new trends start to come up, and along with them, photography evolves. Instagram has influenced photography in a way so that people now appreciate the art within the pictures more. Of course, most of the time we don’t even realise it. But we have fallen in love with photography and the art within it. In short, Instagram has changed photography to the point in which we as users have learned to appreciate the art in every day things. From simple things like the shape of a food plate to the colour of a beautiful landscape. Instagram has allowed us to focus on the beautiful moments in our lives, and encourages us to share them in the form of art. Final ThoughtsInstagram has changed the way we dine, talk and even live. Of course, Instagram will continue for countless years more. Therefore, tons of other things will change. However, we need to keep in mind that most of the time, this is a good thing. Thanks to Instagram, photography has changed for the better. In fact, there are more people now who found a passion for photography thanks to Instagram. We don’t know what other things will change in the future. Nevertheless, we know Instagram always does its best to makes us happy – and that should work for now. The post How Instagram Has Changed Photography appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/instagram-photography-change/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183094092347 Ever since Instagram was bought by Facebook, millions of people have benefited from it. The social media platform has grown to a point in which it is now possible for us to make money online. Of course, over time the second largest social networking app has improved. In fact, it’s thanks to Instagram that lots of people get paid for posting sponsored content. In other words, Instagram has become the perfect platform for influencers to grow. For example, when it comes to promoting content on Instagram, brands don’t hesitate to hire certain influencers to do the job. After all, it ensures that they will get likes and all types of interactions on their business profiles. But, for some time now, influencers have been posting fake sponsored content. Can you imagine what the reason behind their actions is? Well, here’s what you need to know. Instagram Fake Sponsored ContentSo, why are influencers posting fake sponsored content on Instagram? Well, it all has to do with getting more brand deals. You see, since the photo sharing platform began to grow, more and more people started to become part of the influencer game. Therefore, there is a lot of competence on the platform. Actually, brands are now opting to hire not only influencers but also micro, nano, and even pet influencers. In other words, there is much more from where brands can choose at the moment of hiring someone to sponsor their products. In the end, it all comes down to something very simple. Perks and money. It is not a secret that influencers make a good living out of brand deals. Of course, it all depends on the number of followers they have, along with some other factors. In general, big influencers often charge sums that go up to 6 figures for one single post. Considering that there is much more expertise and competition now, it is understandable that some influencers are posting fake sponsored content. But, how does that work? Well, it’s pretty simple actually. All influencers do is advertise products for which they paid for and then pretend they were free. The ultimate goal is to be noticed and of course get amazing brand deals. Sort of fake it till you make it. Final ThoughtsFrom our point of view, the fact that influencers are faking sponsored content does not seem to be something that’s all that bad. After all, they promote something for free and in exchange get a chance to be hired by a specific brand. Overall, we are glad to know that Instagram has become a place in which all people get a chance to grow, regardless of the number of followers they have.

As a matter of fact, many of them decided to quit their traditional 9 to 5 jobs and go full-time working with sites like Instagram and YouTube. Indeed, social media is already dominating the job market. And millions of people are benefiting from it. But how? Well, all the time, there are more job opportunities on offer to people to do what they love. For example, did you know that you can travel the world and get paid for posting your experience on Instagram? Well, yes you can! Incredibly, this is a job position still open for you to apply for. This is without a doubt the dream job of every travel lover in the world. Here are more details on the gig. The Company Behind The GigSo, whatâs the name of the company behind this dream job?

Final ThoughtsIt goes without saying that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Of course, none of this would be possible if social media didnât exist. So, we will just have to wait and see what these platforms will have to offer us in the near future. The post Instagram Dream Job â Travelling The World appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/instagram-dream-job/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183003511037 The Best Time To Post On Instagram For Better ResultsPeople often tend to post new content on Instagram without even analyzing which is the best time to do so. A good understanding of the topic can help you or your brand to get better results when you post on the photo-sharing app. Therefore, the sooner you learn about it, the better. What To Consider Before Posting On InstagramIt’s important to keep in mind that each Instagram profile is different. Therefore, the best time to post on the social media platform will mostly depend on the type of audience you have. Let’s picture two scenarios. Imagine there are two brands on Instagram, one of them sells clothes, and the other promotes a bar. It should go without saying that each brand has a different audience. The first one has an audience who like to dress well, while the other one has as an audience who like to go out and have some drinks. So, if the brand that promotes a bar decides to post something in the morning, naturally the results won’t be as good. Why so? Well, because people who go to bars usually do it at the weekend and during the night. Therefore, it doesn’t make sense to post something on Instagram in the morning, when this is not your audience’s prime time. In short, you need to consider the kind of audience you have, before you select the days and times to post on Instagram. What Is The Best Time To Post On Instagram?In order to know what the best time to post on Instagram is, you first need to analyze which are the dead hours of your community. This means you need to know the time your followers don’t interact too much with your content. Now, in general terms, posting content during the morning isn’t very effective. In fact, it’s well known that regardless of the type of audience someone has, posting on Instagram during the early hours doesn’t always work. So that leaves us with two options – posting content during the afternoon or wait until the evening/night. In most cases, posting during the afternoon will work much better than posting during that night. Why? Well, think about this. People take some time during the day to relax after working for a while. In most cases, they use their lunch break to check out what’s new on Instagram and on other social media platforms. But what happens if you post content during the night? Well, it doesn’t always work as you would expect. People often get home at night and use the little time they have left to spend it with their family by having dinner or watching a movie. So, unless your brand promotes something nightlife-related, we don’t recommend posting new content during that time. What Is The Best Day To Post On Instagram?Ideally, we would tell you to post new content every day. However, if you’re not able to do this, you can always post on Instagram once or twice a week. Now, what you need to do is to figure out which day of the week to choose. In most cases, Tuesdays and Wednesdays are the best options. But what happens with days such as Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays? Well, people don’t usually like Mondays, therefore, they are not always in the mood to be checking Instagram. Thursdays and Fridays are close to the weekend, which means people will not often pay attention to what you post. Finally, Saturdays and Sundays… Well, those are days to spend with family. In conclusion, the best days to post on Instagram are Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Final ThoughtsEven though we have provided you with some useful information related to when to post on Instagram, it is still your duty to analyse your audience. This way, you will get a better idea of whether or not what we proposed in this article is the right thing for your brand. Think of Instagram as a platform of trial and error. Try posting new content on different days and at different times. That will help you create the right schedule for you to post on Instagram, and in the long run, achieve better results. The post What Is The Best Time To Post On Instagram? appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/post-on-instagram/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/182967847697 Instagram started as an app to upload photos and add filters. The overall idea was to share part of our lives with friends and family. Certainly, this is something we can still do. And, of course, we will continue to be able to do it for the rest of our lives. But, things don’t stop at just uploading a photo. As a matter of fact, we can also tag specific people who we want to see our content. And doing so is actually pretty easy. Here’s how you can tag people in an Instagram post. Tagging People On InstagramFirst of all, you will need to open up Instagram on your phone. Then, you will need to upload a photo. To do so, simply tap the plus icon on the bottom of your screen and capture the image that you want to upload. Remember, you can also use a photo already saved in your gallery. Also, the tagging feature is not just limited to photos. As a matter of fact, you can also tag people in videos as well. Now, after selecting the picture you want to upload, add a filter and tap where it says “Next.” Finally, you will be redirected to a screen full of options. Currently, we are able to add our location, tag people and share our content in other social media platforms. Of course, you will want to tap where it says “Tag people.” Last of all, tap on the search bar and look for the people who you want to tag. After you have finished selecting the users you want to tag in your post, simply tap share and you are good to go. NoteInstagram does not only allow you to upload photos individually but also in bulk. As a matter of fact, you can add up to 10 photos at the same time. Fortunately, doing so does not affect the tagging feature in any way. In other words, you can upload multiple photos at once and still tag the people you want in each post individually.
