Instagram is a great way to share vivid memories and moments with your friends, family, and followers. If you post a lot of photos, but they don't get the number of likes you want, follow our simple instructions to find out how to get more likes.

Steps

Method 1 of 7: Use hashtags

1. 1 Use hashtags. Hashtags are the simplest way to categorize photos using keywords. Thanks to them, other users will be able to find you, which will ultimately increase the number of likes. The more hashtags you use, the more often your photos will be viewed.
2. 2 Use as many hashtags as possible for each photo. For example, if you took a photo of your corgi, you can add hashtags such as #corgi, #dog, #pet, #corgi, #dog.
3. 3 Use the most popular hashtags. Some of the most popular hashtags are: #love, #me, #cute, #friday and #coffee.
4. 4 Search the internet for a list of the currently most popular hashtags and try one of them. But remember that using popular hashtags can lead to your photo being lost among thousands of others.
   • You can also like the photos of other users with the tags #likeforlike or # like4like. Not everyone will like you in return, but you will undoubtedly get a certain amount of likes.

Method 2 of 7: Use Filters

1. 1 Process photos with filters. Use the apps or built-in capabilities of Instagram itself to edit images and add filters. Examples of popular filters that allow you to give your photos a special character are Early-bird, X-Proll, Aviary, Valencia.
2. 2 Use different apps to give your photos a unique look. Apps like Camera +, Pro HDR, Snap-seed, and Pixlr-o-matic will help make your shots more attractive.

Method 3 of 7: Add Photos That Will Be Interesting to Others

1. 1 Post correct photos. People often post anything on Instagram, such as a photo of their lunch, a cat, or even empty beer bottles. If you want more likes, imagine Instagram is your personal art gallery. This means that only the best, high-quality images should be posted there. The higher the quality of the pictures, the more chances that people will like them. The following paragraphs provide examples of photos that most people like.
   • Never post three similar photos in a row. Choose the best one.
2. 2 Post the best personal photos where you were taken with your loved one, friends, family members.
3. 3 Place unique views. People love photographs of places they haven't been to themselves.
4. 4 Post photos of your pets. However, only the most interesting photos of your dog or cat are guaranteed to bring you likes. Let your pet do something unusual in the photo.
5. 5 Don't go overboard with food photography. Everyone posts them, so post only the most beautiful or unusual shots, display only unique and unusual food for everyone to see.
6. 6 Combine multiple photos into one using apps like Diptic. It will also increase your chances of getting more likes. You can create a collage from similar images or from different, but united by a common theme, for example, taken on the same trip or on a holiday.

Method 4 of 7: Be an active participant

1. 1 Be an active member of the Instagram community. To get likes and comments, you need to give them to others. Take the time to comment on your friends' photos, like them. If you do this, people will love you. If you do not pay attention to the photos of subscribers, then you should not expect a large number of likes from them.
2. 2 Like photos of random people to get more likes in return.
3. 3 Go to other people's accounts (mostly with more subscriptions than subscribers). Like 15-20 pictures. If they notice this, then, most likely, in response they will like your photo or follow you!

Method 5 of 7: Consider the Time Factor

1. 1 Post photos at the right time. You can post the most amazing photo in the world, but no one will like it in the middle of the night. Keep in mind that most of the views occur in the first two to three hours after publication. So what is the best time to post a photo?
   • Post a photo in the middle of the day when people get bored at work and start to get distracted by social media. Do not post photos in the early morning or at 5-6 pm when people are either going to work or driving home.
   • Post photos after dinner. Indeed, after a hard day's work, people often surf the Internet.
   • Post a photo during any special event or holiday.New Years, Halloween, or Valentine's Day can be great excuses for posting photos. Some users, in the midst of fun, are not up to other people's photos, but others are happy to watch holiday photos and like them.
2. 2 Do not post photos on Friday or Saturday nights. Perhaps people will watch them, but will not appreciate them, so as not to admit that on the evening before the weekend they have no more interesting activities than sitting on Instagram.
3. 3 Be active after posting a photo. Comment on or like several photos of your friends to get their attention.

Method 6 of 7: Post links

1. 1 Place a link to your Instagram in your Facebook and VKontakte accounts. It only takes a minute and will expand your audience.

Method 7 of 7: Use other apps

1. 1 Use other apps. The App Store and Google Play stores used to have hundreds of applications with which you could like photos, earn "coins" and spend them on buying likes. These apps could be found using search phrases like "get likes on Instagram" or "Instagram likes". However, App Store and Google Play policies have changed and these apps are no longer available as they were seen stealing Instagram credentials. However, there is a licensed app with similar features called Matez. It does not ask for an Instagram password, is secure and complies with the App Store Terms of Service.
2. 2 Download the app. Review app reviews, select a trusted app, and download it.
3. 3 Log into your Instagram account.
4. 4 Start liking photos of other members. Apps usually have a "Skip" button that lets you skip photos you don't like.
5. 5 Spend coins on likes. Keep in mind that the app may not earn you 100% of the likes you buy.

Tips

• If people like your photo, like them back. It is this reciprocity that makes social media flourish. If you don't respond in any way, they will lose interest in you.
• Like your followers' photos and comment by complimenting them.
• Don't overuse hashtags. Choose the ones that fit your photo. Sometimes you can use tags like #instacool, but don't use them for every photo.
• Use a photo editing app instead of filters.
• Follow people who like your photos.
• Combine similar photos into a collage.
• Don't post too many photos at a time. Subscribers will feel that your presence in their feed is redundant, and this is annoying. Notice at what time you posted the photo so that there is enough time between publications.
• Regular, old-fashioned selfies are boring, and posting them too often makes them look like sheer self-admiration. Use apps like Squaready and Snapseed to make your selfies unique.
• Be careful with your hashtags. Don't use them when writing comments. Only add relevant hashtags to photos. And know - when people post a photo with the #lfl tag (like for a like), they don't necessarily like in return.
• Entertain your subscribers, for example, by organizing various contests. But be careful not to run contests that might offend or even offend other people.
• If you posted a photo, but forgot to add hashtags, you can leave them in the comments.

Warnings

• Under no circumstances make fun of anyone - users may notice this and unsubscribe from you.
• Do not post inappropriate photos.
• Keep the number of selfies and food photos to a minimum.
