However, it\u2019s important to know if your account is, in general, growing, or if you\u2019re constantly losing followers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So how can you check that easily?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here come <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/2021\/12\/what-is-a-social-media-analytics-tool-and-why-should-you-use-it\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">social media analytics tools<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

Now you may wonder how to increase this number significantly, and one method recommended by some people over and over again is simple: buy them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So should you just buy new followers? Is it even safe to do so?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The answer is very simple here: it\u2019s definitely not safe, and you shouldn\u2019t buy followers, neither in 2022, nor in 2025.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s not only about the safety of such a process. Most probably you\u2019d like to buy followers to grow your profile and become more competitive and more visible on Instagram. But you won\u2019t become. And buying followers, in the long run, may bring you more harm than good.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, why shouldn&#8217;t you buy followers?<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bought followers are usually fake followers. That means they won\u2019t be engaging with your content. They will also not stay with you forever, because Instagram is regularly deleting such fake or inactive accounts.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once Instagram knows that you\u2019re not really following its <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/help.instagram.com\/581066165581870\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">terms and conditions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, your account may be banned, and you may suffer from a decreased reach for some time.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your data may leak or you may even lose access to your account, depending on the process and app you\u2019ll use in order to buy followers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Overall, you\u2019ll just waste time and money, while these can be spent on building loyal followership from scratch.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><a name=\"3\"><\/a><strong>Who are my Instagram followers and where are they from?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may need an answer to this question for several reasons, for example:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">your profile is already big enough and brands start to be interested in collaborating with you &#8211; they will be asking for your profile and audience stats,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in the process of crafting your strategy, you\u2019ll be interested in who your followers really are in order to prepare content that is relevant to them (meaning it answers their needs, problems, etc).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And to answer these two questions, you basically need to check the demographics of your Instagram followers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can easily do that in the majority of social media analytics apps.

But are there other ways of getting new followers quickly?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The answer is pretty simple again, as, in general, it\u2019s rather hard to grow your profile quickly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The truth is, growing an Instagram profile is a process and may last even for years. You have to be patient and keep on doing what you\u2019ve planned.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are some proven methods of gaining many new followers quickly, however, usually, they can\u2019t be planned. One of them is the situation when your profile (or a single post) is recommended by a much bigger profile. Usually, it happens if you do something exceptionally interesting or valuable and another Instagram creator believes that it\u2019s worth sharing with their community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But as we stated, this can\u2019t be planned and is strongly connected to the quality of your content.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"5\"><\/a><strong>Will my Instagram followers stay with me forever?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should know that\u2026 they won\u2019t. \ud83d\ude09 Many of your followers will be \u2018migrating\u2019 between your profile and other similar profiles. It\u2019s completely natural and you have to be prepared that at the same time you\u2019ll be gaining new followers, but also losing some part of your audience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why is that? Not only you and your profile will be changing over time but also your followers\u2019 preferences will be evolving.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At some point your content may no longer be funny for someone, they may find it not useful anymore or simply start to disagree with what you\u2019re saying.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Or maybe in the past, you were creating content mostly related to traveling but as you become a parent you started posting more child-related content? That will have a great impact on your follower segmentation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"6\"><\/a><strong>How can I attract more valuable followers to my profile?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s get back again to the process of gaining new followers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should already know that rather than how many followers you have, it\u2019s more important how engaged they\u2019re. A smaller but highly engaged audience is what you should be aiming at and this is also why micro-influencers are becoming more and more popular these days.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What should a strategy for attracting new followers to your profile look like then?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Make sure you\u2019re consistent and regular. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A potential new follower should know what they can expect to see on your profile and how often. If you\u2019re posting only once a month, why should someone even start following you?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Post high-quality and interesting content, <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">which is especially important when getting new followers. They should immediately believe that what you post is worth their time.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Stand out from the crowd. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There should be something unique about your profile: either your style, sense of humor or the niche that you specialize in.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember that <\/span><b>engaged users attract engaged users.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Start with engaging the followers you already have, and their engagement and interest will soon start to pay off.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last but not least, <\/span><b>make sure you actually have a strategy in place<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and you know both your goal and the way to achieve it.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another way of attracting new followers to your profile, is, of course, by setting ads. This paid type of promotion is available to everyone on Instagram unless you have a budget to spend. \ud83d\ude09\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ads can be exceptionally effective but can be also a waste of your time and money. It all depends on your goals and knowledge about them. Even if you decide to set ads aiming at increasing your follower base, those ads should be supported by other activities aimed at engaging new followers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re not familiar with setting Instagram ads, check our guides on:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/resources\/knowledge-base\/create-instagram-ads\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">how to create Instagram ads<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/resources\/knowledge-base\/what-do-i-need-before-i-start-advertising-on-instagram\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">what you should prepare before setting up your first ad<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><a name=\"7\"><\/a><strong>How do I know if my Instagram followers are engaged?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having an engaged Instagram community should be one of the most important objectives, if not the most important one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you start analyzing your engagement, you should remember that users may engage with your profile and content in many different ways.
