Cheers for the tips and for putting out an video filled with actual tips and information :). one question, how do you view the hashtags that are working for you? could you please make a video on this :). I mostly do landscape, street and creative photography.
While we're grading your paper, there's an extra space in the word "and" in tip number 9. 7:46 But you probably did that on purpose, meaning aaaannnndd! Solid video! Enjoyed it!
It happens to me soo many times that i use some hashtags and it increases my reach and then i use them again(on related Post) and it didn't work at all. Only few people reaches like 9 10 or 11. What's the reason? Can you explain?
You can copy hashtag from a phone by copying the link pasting them in to your phone browser. ☝🏾🤝 And I am Sujay, a landscape photographer from canberra . Thanks for the useful video 🤝
hello! i just started my photography account @toomirephotos and was wondering if you have any advice for emu account specifically. I definitely will be using these tips!
Hello Jonny, I’m John, also @ickledot on Instagram. As you’ll see, I photograph rugby players. Not your genre but I like your Ig tips. I edit on desktop and post from iPad. I use keyboard shortcuts for some hashtags but I like your DM idea.
Hi, I post travel photos like i travel to different places and I am not getting many likes and followers. One day, I posted a recent photo which has over 60 likes and I thought i has to do with some hashtags i used in that post. What is your comment?
Instant subscribe after I watched your 13 tips on instagram post - I love your depth of thought & you give such sage advice. I've been trying to grow my instagram for so long but my introverted perfectionist self hates it so much!! You've no idea how much your advice helps me psychologically! THANK YOU!!
Great tip about the DM of hashtags. If you edit a post you can copy the text and hashtags and click X to not make any changes and copy the tags elsewhere. I sometimes email the hashtags to myself. You could keep an email draft or a google doc with a multitude of hashtags to reuse. Type on the computer, accessible on the mobile.
Hi Jonny I've received some DM from some accounts offering me to promote and get more follows.... does this work? Im afraid as you said will not be followeres interested in my content. what do you know about this?
You absolutely can copy and paste hashtags from previous posts. Go to the post you want to use the hashtags from and select “edit”. Long press screen and “select all” then “copy”. Go to your new post and “paste”. Done!
You can copy your hashtags with your phone. Just go to your internet browser on your phone and go to your post you can copy it like normal tekst. And love the video!
This may be a dumb question but do you think is better posting one single photo at a time or maybe including more photos (2, 3, 5) in one single post is a better practice?
Very useful, thanks Jonny! Just to let you know, you can actually copy and paste hashtags on mobile (on Android anyway) - you need to choose the three dots menu on the post, 'edit post', then select and copy, and then exit and you can paste elsewhere.
Dont you think reusing the same set of hashtags (also smaller ones) will ‚ban‘ you from reach? I have that, when i use the same set after some weeks, i get much less reach from hashtags :( Would be interested in your experience.
I've seen that happen as well I think. In this example I'm presuming a month apart but when I did it more frequently I have a similar issue to what you describe.
Very helpful video...But 2 months back i took a break due to my exams after then my Instagram reach is soo down ...it barely hit less than 300 in 24 hours and that's disappointing🤧...so can you please help me out??!!....I'll be greatful...and yeah I'm running an art page😇
Wait a minute, I watched a few of his videos and just realised he only had 4.48K subs. WTF I thought he had a few hundred thousand at the least. Well anyways amazing videos, they are great quality. So I had a question Jonny, I've noticed that not many people are engaging in my posts anymore, why is this. On my most recent post I'm using 31 hashtags, the name is raid.acs
I am a Toronto based photographer who focuses on nature portrait and travel photography. I am wanting to start a new Instagram account, in 2020. How can I keep my account consistent with these three subjects?
I actually agree on overything except when you said 'use as many hashtags' because instagram sees that as a spam and will shadow ban you for using so many hashtags
I would be interested to see evidence of this. I agree that repeating hashtags does this, but IG set the limit at 30 themselves. If they didn't want you to use them all they would simply reduce the limit.
No once you've posted hashtags it's done. A second comment with hashtags wouldn't count as hashtags. I presume deleting hashtags would remove your post from that hashtag but I'm not sure.
Nooo. 🤣😭 Please don't DM yourself the hashtags. You can do all of this in Facebook Creator Studio. Watching this... Why would you put up with that? Your time is precious, man. Better take that time and put it into a hashtag Excel file, write a shuffling algorithm and use different ones each time. Reusing hashtags in a post not further than 12-20 posts away from your last one will result in a decrease of engagement up to 80%. Don't do that.
The DM trick is intended for people who are only using IG on mobile. I've never put time is precious and excel file in the same comment :) I have a phobia of spreadsheets. And yeah you're bang on about the over use of copying hashtags.
@@ItsJonnyKeeley Really? You should try it. Saves a lot of time. I'm a developer though. I don't even need Excel. It's for users. But editing anything ok the phone... Idk. In 2021. This should die. 😅
My Instagram account is private . Any people not follow me . And they can search any hashtag and the hashtag is included in my reel. So, they can see my reel ?
Oh my God. First of all bless you for having the first TH-cam I found in 10 years that actually helps with Instagram. Really I appreciate you. And I put so much effort into hashtags and that groups of 10 just changed my life all of the suggestions were brilliant I appreciate you you saved me like three hours next year of my life🤣🤣🤣❤️🙏🏼
Great video Jonny! Definitely some great tips in here as usual. I have a whole note section of different hashtags I use, I try to switch them up now and then. For instance, when I travel to a place, I use local hashtags relative to that place mixed with more generic landscape photography hashtags. Seems to work well. Some places, like Edinburgh, have off the charts hashtag engagement, while other places I've visited is hit or miss. Thanks again for a great video, always very helpful. Have a great weekend and stay safe over there.
That's a perfect way to do it. You're right some places have a really engaged hashtag following. It usually correlates with a niche tourist or enthusiast community, rather than mainstream holiday travel.
Hi Jonny, your videos are very informative and provide a massive amount of inputs. I honestly am yet to implement all the tips. However, looking at other comments, am confident that your videos are helpful and have already been helping people. I love cooking, love exploring. Not a great blogger though yet, still long way to get there..... My instagram handle is Vinaya V or Vinaya Dudhane Kulkarni. I also have a youtube channel. For some reasons, I have lots of cooking videos raw video footage, just that yet to compile them and start uploading. Last I might have done 3 months ago. I know, its not a good pace / speed to upload videos.
This is super helpful, practical and to the point. Where I am confused is... I am a niche artist and do 2 bird characters based on my cockatiels. The genres I use ( noir, glitch and vaporwave) are not used for bird art so I don’t do well in either category 😆 Trying to figure out where the rest of my tribe are hiding and new ways to let them know I exist that arent spammy? Also is it worth creating your own specific hashtags from scratch? I am getting approx 50 followers a month from only posting 2x week using *the old fashioned way* (talking to people, leaving funny comments that compliment their birds if people get the humour they sent to become fiercely loyal interactive followers. I get very little engagement through hashtags though... it seems my work is too off the beaten track but hashtags like alternativeart are over saturated with random rubbish and top spots owned by the same few established people with huge followings
Cheers Jonny....Great information to help with instagram hashtag as I have only just started to concentrate on them more, in the past I found them a little mystfiying, good quality info, Thank you.
Brilliant video thanks. Well delivered and to the point, no faff. I'm a small business owner who works full time as well. Failing a bit on Instagram as alot of my community is people posting the same stuff. Seems useless. I'm a lazy 'hashtagger' so going to try these tips Cheers!'
Hey... another great video! I sure enjoy your content and support! Thank you! Let's see... really an into horses, and cows. At the same time, really into supporting people make moves toward their health. Most of my photos are connected to life out in the country. But at the same time, there might be a photo with fresh made no flour bread. Here I am on Instagram: matrixweaver Thanks for the support! Gary
Perfect timing for this video. I've been in a photography slump for the last couple years and I've recently gotten my groove back. I'm back with more interest in promoting my work and knew I was lacking some hashtag insight. Thanks for the tips! For anyone interested in my work, check out - instagram.com/greglehming/
got one better bro. Go into the phones settings and set up the predictive text. So all you have to do is type # and all the predetermined hash tags will be entered.
Hi, I really enjoy your videos. They're really clear and your suggestions make such sense and are really easy to follow. I'm using your advice to grow a dog account, really cheesy I know, but I'm using it to learn about social media but also improve my photography and IT skills. Thanks for putting the time into these videos.
This is a super great video. I am a Diviner and I post lots of spiritual and occult content. I'm getting serious about my IG and I love the DM tip and grouping by the number of hashtags. Thanks so much!
I’ve recently subscribed and enjoying your content. I use the text replacement feature to add my hashtags in a group, really easy to set up as well. Saves having to copy & paste from a note.
Hi Jonny, great advices! I love your content and how you help people. How much time do you usually spend to do your full hashtag search?
I usually spend about 1 hour, yes it's really time-consuming considering that you need to update your hashtag set at least every
I have hired someone to do it for me, every 3 days I get a fresh hashtag set to use
If your content is not great do not spend anytime searching hashtags
I gave up, I know that hashtags bring a lot of results but it's too time-consuming
I try to finish my search in under 90 minutes
Love the hashtag grouping / category advice
Yeah, that one can be really helpful.
I would be interested in more videos about Instagram for photographers or other creative categories

Great tips. Also I’ve found a way around not being able to copy on mobile, is to ‘edit’ your photo caption and copy them from there.
Why have I never thought of this, you're a genius lol
Had hashtag page
Tip from me: you can copy hashtags in your mobile when you do it in description editing mode. You are welcome :)
Love that you misspelled „hastags“ when mentioning Tip 4: avoid misspelled hashtags 😂 amazing video, learnt really much!
Thank you! I’ll have to rewatch and see if I can get away with pretending I did it on purpose 😆
@@ItsJonnyKeeley spelt it wrong in the thumbnail as well fella
@@MacBackwardz I can't believe 1 it's taken this long for someone to point that out, and 2 for me to notice! :)

@@zacgrimaldo I wish I did :) I edit these so quickly it's amazing there aren't more errors.
Im still trying some but its sort of hard to believe it works when you don’t have a big following on your own.
Your account = 15k after 2.2k posts 10 years old. My account = 7.8k after 191 posts 2 years old. This is purely for context, your work is great mate.
It happens to me soo many times that i use some hashtags and it increases my reach and then i use them again(on related Post) and it didn't work at all.
Only few people reaches like 9 10 or 11. What's the reason? Can you explain?

Whatever I Post I Get 8 Likes And I Have 150 Followers, What Should I do 😔

Any suggestions for people who might be working at the intersection of several niches? Say running and photography?
Hi Jonny thank you for all your tips
I just started traveling photography and can do with all your ideas and suggestions. Thank you
Great information. On Instagram I post mainly street photography with some nature and landscape thrown in the mix.

I try to keep my Instagram (instagram.com/quirke9) all nature based. Whether it be animals or landscapes, all while trying to educate on conservation
You actually CAN copy hashtags from your phone: if you edit the post, you can edit the caption and copy all your hashtags
Great video except I copy my hashtags all the time. It works fine
P.S I need those shelfs in my life....
You can literally have them if you want. I took them down and built a new set up th-cam.com/video/FtiKJIrxVlo/w-d-xo.html

I make product videos im looking for clients for them
Really great tips 👍👍 I should definitely start using less hashtags
Hi, i have realy like your videos, and there are great advises. Thank you very much for those videos.
I edit anime or tv series with badass songs . But I'm new so idk much about editing I try to be as good as I can & I try to teach myself
I've been taking a lot of photos for about a year looking forward to using some hashtags and seeing the response!
You can copy hashtags on mobile, I was always doing it.
Dont you think reusing the same set of hashtags (also smaller ones) will ‚ban‘ you from reach? I have that, when i use the same set after some weeks, i get much less reach from hashtags :(

You can copy your old #s from your mobile by opening the edit option for your older post and then select and copy them.
Are tools like hashtagify or flick.tech good for finding instagram hashtags?
I got a movie and movie series recommendations channel. Any advise?

Wait a minute, I watched a few of his videos and just realised he only had 4.48K subs. WTF I thought he had a few hundred thousand at the least. Well anyways amazing videos, they are great quality.
So I had a question Jonny, I've noticed that not many people are engaging in my posts anymore, why is this. On my most recent post I'm using 31 hashtags, the name is raid.acs
Thanks for the kind words buddy! I'm new, and it's really encouraging that people are enjoying my videos!
I noticed that you misspelled hashtag in your tips on screen lol. No biggie but thought I’d mention it. “Hastag” 😉
Great video. Thanks for the tips!
Yeah I have a habit of that 🤣
I use the app leetags it gives you the how much the hash tag is used and shows relevant hastags
Really like the way you're explaining things. 🙏🏼
I post a little bit of everything, is that an issue you think?
Man, you're great! Can't believe you just started your account! You're smashing it! Keep up the good work and thanks for the great content 👍 👌
Thanks very much mate, means a lot!
Such great advices always.
I am a Toronto based photographer who focuses on nature portrait and travel photography. I am wanting to start a new Instagram account, in 2020. How can I keep my account consistent with these three subjects?
They work pretty well together, focus on making the colours and tones work well together.
I actually agree on overything except when you said 'use as many hashtags' because instagram sees that as a spam and will shadow ban you for using so many hashtags

Does changing the hashtag after you've already posted something change anything, or is it not helpful anymore?
No once you've posted hashtags it's done. A second comment with hashtags wouldn't count as hashtags. I presume deleting hashtags would remove your post from that hashtag but I'm not sure.
Very helpful! Thanks
Hey you said about checking your hashtags to which ones are working... how exactly do you do that, or is it just clicking on them?
Yeah simply tapping them and scrolling down. If you're getting likes from non followers all of a sudden you will be ranking in some.
Nooo. 🤣😭 Please don't DM yourself the hashtags. You can do all of this in Facebook Creator Studio. Watching this... Why would you put up with that? Your time is precious, man.
