In a world where consumer, as well as content, is the king, the equity of a brand is significantly dependent upon its visual reach. And when we talk about visual reach, the first thing to cross our minds is, none other than, Instagram. If you are still debating the power and influence of Instagram, let us ask you to make a guess about how many pictures are uploaded on Instagram annually?

35 billion! Yes, amazing, isn’t it?

So you can imagine how many people are using and viewing this platform on an everyday basis. 

Using curated content to their advantage, individual creators and businesses alike are witnessing extraordinary brand growth.

But what exactly is Instagram’s USP?

One may argue that Instagram is not the only social media platform available. There is Twitter as well as Facebook. So, what is so unique about Instagram. Well, you see Twitter happens to be a platform for expressing one’s opinions and views on a variety of issues and Facebook is essential for connecting and engaging with acquaintances, family, and friends. These platforms lack the visual aesthetic that is the USP of Instagram.

So for connecting with people on Instagram, unlike Facebook where you send or accept ‘Friend’ requests from people, you either need to follow them or they have sent you a follow request. So, the process for doing so is quite simple. All you have to do is go to the profile of the person you want to follow and click on the Follow button on their profile.
