Choose an Eye-Catching Profile Image<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your profile photo is crucial for branding on any social media platform. Customers and followers should be able to look at your picture and know who you are without looking at your username. So, as a business, using the same photo across all your channels is essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because Instagram&#8217;s space for profile photos is tiny, you must optimize it for the platform and ensure all critical elements \u2013 if using a logo \u2013 are visible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Food website Eater uses a variation of its logo for its Instagram profiles. Instead of spelling out the entire word like its primary logo, the brand uses a big &#8220;E&#8221; with a bright red background. The effect is simple yet eye-catching and memorable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1242\" height=\"748\" src=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.16.20.png\" alt=\"Eater Instagram profile\" class=\"wp-image-83039\" style=\"width:845px;height:509px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.16.20.png 1242w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.16.20-768x463.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1242px) 100vw, 1242px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Another example comes from Taco Bell. The company&#8217;s brand identity has remained unchanged for over two decades. Thus, it&#8217;s no wonder the company uses its brand logo as the profile image to help visitors quickly understand which company stands behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CkwMz6uSgwE\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Use Primary Keywords in Your Handle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One way to improve your visibility on Instagram is by incorporating relevant keywords into your name (the one displayed in your bio) and username. This helps people find you when searching for options regarding a particular topic or idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if your business sells swimwear, instead of simply using your brand name, it will be helpful to include terms like &#8220;swim&#8221; as part of your username or display name instead of merely using your brand name. This technique is particularly helpful for startups and those who have yet to grow their following.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoEx3piOveS\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

This can help you target the right demographics and allow Instagram to connect you to an audience whose <a href=\"https:\/\/clario.co\/blog\/which-company-uses-most-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">personal data<\/a> matches your target audience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your username is of the most critical aspects of your feed. With the strategic use of keywords, you can help potential customers discover your brand on Instagram effortlessly.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Write a Descriptive Instagram Bio<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your Instagram bio is the first thing users see when they visit your profile. It has all features to tag connected profiles, add relevant hashtags, or even link back to a landing page which can be one of the most effective <a href=\"https:\/\/belkins.io\/blog\/b2b-lead-generation-ideas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lead-generation hacks<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You only have 150 characters to summarize your business and explain what you do, so it&#8217;s important to choose every word and emoji wisely. While a concise description is important, creativity is the key to success. Consider it a chance to show your personality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out how Dunkin wows its audience with a short yet powerful Instagram bio:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1358\" height=\"406\" src=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.18.39.png\" alt=\"Dunkin Instagram profile\" class=\"wp-image-83040\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.18.39.png 1358w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.18.39-768x230.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1358px) 100vw, 1358px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Dunkin&#8217;s play on its tagline for its Instagram bio is as straightforward as you can get, but the brand&#8217;s personality shines through. Using the coffee and donut emoji is a simple way to summarize what Dunkin&#8217; is about without using words or maxing out the character count.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some other important aspects to consider when crafting your Instagram bio:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It should communicate your unique value proposition\/what differentiates you from your competitors.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlight who your target audience is<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Include a relevant call-to-action like booking an appointment, visiting your website to purchase, or making a reservation.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provides ways to contact your business<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Add Instagram Story Highlight Covers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You already know the value of updating your Instagram highlights. But many brands overlook creating Story Highlight album covers to differentiate them. Since you only have 15 characters to label your Instagram highlight, you have very little space to explain it. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.signalhire.com\/blog\/building-a-strong-social-media-team-inside-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">good social media team<\/a> knows this is where a highlight album cover can help you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only will your Story highlights appear more organized, but having album covers can also help entice followers to view them. Here&#8217;s an example of descriptive covers from BaliBody.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1680\" height=\"290\" src=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.20.59.png\" alt=\"BaliBody highlight album covers\" class=\"wp-image-83041\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.20.59.png 1680w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.20.59-768x133.png 768w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.20.59-1536x265.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1680px) 100vw, 1680px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to inject more creativity?

Decide on Your Grid Style<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A well-designed grid can help boost your engagement, <a href=\"https:\/\/deliveredsocial.com\/increase-your-instagram-followers-and-grow-organically\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/deliveredsocial.com\/increase-your-instagram-followers-and-grow-organically\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">increase your views organically<\/a>, your followers, and drive sales to your business.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before a new profile visitor looks at your content individually, they will see your grid. That&#8217;s why many social media marketers plan their posts at least nine tiles ahead.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, Coach has a vertical line feed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"566\" height=\"1720\" src=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.26.17.png\" alt=\"Coach vertical Instagram feed\" class=\"wp-image-83043\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.26.17.png 566w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.26.17-505x1536.png 505w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 566px) 100vw, 566px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And M&amp;M&#8217;s chooses to split one visual into nine posts and therefore tell a story:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1296\" height=\"1296\" src=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.27.26.png\" alt=\"MMs Instagram feed\" class=\"wp-image-83044\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.27.26.png 1296w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-17.27.26-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1296px) 100vw, 1296px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Deciding on your grid style is a fun process \u2013 there isn&#8217;t any tried or tested formula. You just have to get creative. Like the example above, many content creators and brands follow a pattern or alternate between filters and &#8220;moods.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use tools with pre-made editable <a href=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/lp\/create\/social-media-templates\/instagram\/\">Instagram templates<\/a> to make it easier. Feel free to check out other brands for some Instagram feed ideas and inspiration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Define Your Color Palette<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may already have a logo and visual brand identity guidelines for your business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All you have to do is apply them to your Instagram posts. For instance, if your logo is predominantly blue, you can use a blue-tinged filter or integrate blue accents into your posts. Intel is an excellent example of this strategy in action:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1484\" src=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.23.03.png\" alt=\"Intel Instagram profile\" class=\"wp-image-83045\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.23.03.png 1400w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.23.03-768x814.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, during the early days of Instagram, best practice once meant using a single filter for your entire grid.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, the world-renown advertising agency, Grey, uses only black and white images on Instagram \u2013 no wonder the company sticks to this color palette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1284\" height=\"1282\" src=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.23.58.png\" alt=\"Gray Instagram feed\" class=\"wp-image-83046\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.23.58.png 1284w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.23.58-768x767.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1284px) 100vw, 1284px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the majority of creators and brands alike embrace variety. If you want your grid to look cohesive without looking monotonous, identify three to five brand colors and add them as pops of color to your posts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Known for popularizing &#8220;millennial pink,&#8221; skincare and makeup brand Glossier always sprinkles a touch of powder pink across its grid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1278\" height=\"848\" src=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.25.15.png\" alt=\"Glossier Instagram feed\" class=\"wp-image-83047\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.25.15.png 1278w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.25.15-768x510.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1278px) 100vw, 1278px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Being consistent with colors can help you increase brand recognition, especially when running <a href=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/top-10-instagram-ad-templates\">Instagram ads<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Identify Your Post Types<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that Instagram has expanded well beyond its strict square photo requirements, users can publish content in a range of formats:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In-feed photos (square, horizontal, vertical)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In-feed <a href=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/instagram-video-guide\">Instagram videos<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instagram Reels&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/how-to-use-instagram-stories-in-your-social-media-marketing-strategy\">Instagram Stories<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>IG Live&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instagram guides<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Experimenting with different types of content can help you determine what works best for your audience. At the same time, being consistent with the subject of your content will increase your chances of the algorithm suggesting your profile to relevant audiences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But identifying your post types goes beyond deciding whether you post photos or videos for the week. It also means mixing your content with product photos, behind-the-scenes Stories, how-to videos, user-generated content, and more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Identifying the type of content in your pipeline can help you plan your grid and ensure you&#8217;re on track. Plus, it&#8217;s also a great way to avoid repetition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Travel and luggage brand Away combines its content with product shots, inspirational content, and instructional videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1276\" height=\"844\" src=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.26.04.png\" alt=\"Away Instagram feed\" class=\"wp-image-83048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.26.04.png 1276w, https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-19.26.04-768x508.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1276px) 100vw, 1276px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8.
