Nowadays, most people are active on social media and many of them earn money from social media by influencing others with the help of their skills.

For example, Before 3 years we started a coding Instagram account called Webstrom_Tech which is focused on technical niches.


Then, we decided what type of posts we would do on Instagram like static posts or carousel posts and how many posts we should do per day like 2 per day 4 per week or every day 1.

How to Start Content Creation Journey

• First, Deciding your niche is very important means deciding what type of content you will post on your social media. 
• Then, start analysing how you will get reach on your account. For instance, we have decided to do collaborations with other creators who already have good audiences in the coding account.
• Then we created a report on which influencer or creator is our competitor and then started analyzing his or her account for 5 to 7 days and then got a report that which hashtags they are using, at which time they are posting content, how many posts they post in one day or in one week.
• Then we created a logo and theme design which is eye-pleasing means it looks better and is perfect for beginners as well to understand easily.
• Then we used topics which are trending in our niche and planned 7 days of content for posts.
  
  

How we have completed these steps :

• For the logo, we used the Canva website and created a logo for free and also chose a theme design from the Canva website and started creating content for posts and reels.
• Then for trending content ideas, we have used the Instagram explore page to see which content is trending and which content is getting good reach.
• Then we used hashtags and captions from trending posts to get better results in less time and reached around 100k-150k people in just 7 days from those posts.
• By using this type of strategy, you can also improve your account else you can run Facebook ads or Instagram boost post options to reach people in a limited time as per your budget.

Things to Follow every day:

• Post at least 1 post every day.
• Don’t Steal content from others, just get ideas from them to create your content.
• Use proper hashtags and keywords in posts or reels and use locations if you have to target any specific audience.
• Use trending audio in reels or shorts because there are many chances to get good reach from that audio as well.
• Post at your peak time because most of your followers are active at that time.
• Share that post or reel in your story which you have posted.
• Share that post in groups like the creator’s group or your audience groups like Instagram broadcasts to show you are active.
• Be consistent, Consistency is very important to engage with your audience.
• Provide value and engage with your audience in comments and messages by replying to them in 24-48 hours.
