How I manage Instagram • I usually post one picture every two days and every day I like other users’ pictures and I comment some pictures of food bloggers or people with lots of followers, because comments are more useful than likes for the engagement and for gaining new followers; • In the morning I check for the updates regarding our followers, likes and comments in our pictures, using Dasheroo, minter.io, social rank and obviously Instagram; • Then I use the app Followers to see people who have unfollowed us, in order to unfollow them; • Then I visit some food bloggers’ profiles and start adding their followers (about 150- 200 per day) and I try to interact with some of them, putting likes or commenting their pictures; • Using the Followers app, I also check for people who do not follow us, and I unfollow them (the free version of the app allows you to unfollow just 60 people every two or three hours); ATTENTION: I do not unfollow people who I have followed in the last one or two days (give them time to notice that you have followed them. If after three or four days they’re not following you back, then you can unfollow them). On the left there is the app icon for IOS, and on the right the main page
