Here I am going to discuss few ways to earn money through Instagram.

1) Paid Ads
Once you have grown followers on Instagram then the brands and companies offers you to attach Ads on your stories.
You can get paid and the brands gets their ads in front of targeted audience easily. It is a win-win situation.
This only happens when the user doesnot have only followers but also alot of engagements is seen on his profile.

2) Affiliate Marketing

Although Instagram doesnot promote links in posts. But there is one link allowed in the bio section of Instagram. you can attach your website link there and for the rest of the links you can inbox the link to interested Candidates who see your informative posts on Instagram related to that niche.

3) Promotion of your own Brand

It is easy to gain followers on Instagram once you have gained followers you can shift them to your blog/ YouTube easily.
Instagram is also user friendly and visual theme of posts also attracts much users. As visual posts got more engagement and interest of audience as compared to the text posts.

These are some of the ways. I would love to hear other people's opinions. Have you promoted your or other brands /offer/service/product on Instagram?

Probably, Instagram is one of the best social Media platform that offers you the opportunity to make money in a lot of ways. if you really want to make money on Instagram the first thing you should do is to first of all create an account, then try as much as possible to get a lot of followers and you can probably do that with some strategies and methods. One of the best method in which you can use to get a lot of followers on Instagram is to always post and use some certain hashtags which is probably trending, it is dependent on your geographic location and the kind of followers you want to get. So if a certain hashtag is trending in the United States of America then you should try as much as possible to use them in order to be seen by people over there. The same thing goes depending on the kind of followers you want to get. after that there are several ways you can monetize the Instagram account or one of them is by running ads for businesses or companies. Another method you can make money from an Instagram account is to sell them on some platforms like socialtradia.

Making money on Instagram is very possible I used to be a Instagram marketer before on Fiverr and I watched couple of videos on how to do it, the best way to earn money is if you become an influencer.

Becoming an influencer is really hard to be honest because you have to be very consistent and strategic with you contents else the attention you are getting will fizzle away and you have to think of news to keep engagement going, it is really crazy when you are just starting except maybe you already have friends that are influencer and they will just keep giving you a shout out through their pages.

Another of earning is through managing accounts for people this is also a great way to earn, most business don't have the time to post frequently and keep us with the social media buzz so you can take up that kind of job and the pay is really dependent on your own mastery and how much you sell yourself.

Facebook is incorporating earnings in their platform and it's really awesome where people will get to earn if they make videos, so there are a lot of opportunities around, it all depends on you

You can make money through telegram by being an influencer. This works in a way that would enable you to make money from marketing the services and goods of other people and then earn a commission for anyone that people are able to settle for. The most interesting part is that you are not really putting much more effort like you may be thinking so you just do a little work by making sure you get a lot of followers that are reliable and would patronize you always .

A mistake that some Instagram influencers do that makes it very difficult for them to make as much money as they really expecting is the fact that , they try to see how they can combine a different niche from what they are actually marketing .
What I'm trying to say here is that , you will see someone whose needs of influence is football but he will be marketing services about hotels and other things that are not related to football at all .
These then makes it very difficult for such an individual to get the kind of money he is expecting to do , because most of his followers are football fans and will not necessarily bother themselves about automobiles .

Nowadays Instagram is not really easy for people to make money with , the reason is because for you to start making money with Instagram you need to upgrade or at least grow your followers to thousands of people, when you are able to grow your followers to thousands of people the possibility of you making money with Instagram will be higher through advertisement or any another option you have provided .

Most affiliate marketers nowadays are not really interested to make money in any other platform but they use Instagram most of the time to advertise their affiliate products most especially those that has thousands of followers .

It all depends on what you need Instagram for , but what I understand is that most people are advertising their business on the Instagram platforms and is one of the ways you can grows your followers.

If you are not interested to grow your followers that way , you can also post content that people might be interested .
you can choose a niche like celebrity or spot from there you can grow your followers to thousands of people. That is how you can advertise most of your product on the platform. It depends on how you want to do it that will determine the profitability.

I make money on Instagram. My number one preferred method to make money on Instagram is by doing influencer marketing. Influencer marketing means promoting businesses and products to make money. However, before you can start making money as an influencer, you need to become an influencer. You will become an influencer only when you have tons of followers. More followers you have better will be your prospects to make money as an influencer. When you have a huge following, you can not only make money by promoting someone else's business and products but also promote your own business and products and generate sales.
