I just made a new Instagram account so I could pursue my astrophotography (and other random photos) hobby. I already posted 5 very nice photos within the first hour of seeing up my new account.
That was yesterday and I’ve noticed that despite the photos and the hashtags I’ve only gotten 2 likes on 2 of the 5 images I posted and I’ve had no profile views so far.
If I had posted on tiktok I would gotten alot of views and likes within minutes of posting. But to have nearly no likes and no views at all after hours later.
It gets really discouraging. Is there something I’m not doing? I try to use hashtags that are really active and use as many a I can but I find that no matter how many hashtags I use it won’t make a difference.
Any one have advice how I can increase my chances of actually getting decent views/likes quickly and start growing my following?
serious responses only please
Same. I make more money shooting for Only fans people that actual real art, portraits etc. I mean everyone says you start by shooting porn. But I’ve been at this for years and tik tok and the other vertical bullshit media companies killed us. The viewers don’t even care about quality etc. they just watch lazy ass apartment sellers try to be all cute on tik tok. Or dogs. Or whatever else you find there ha. I will have to tilt soon. I figured since I’ve been literally accused of one of my painting being ai that I just time lapsed the whole thing. And if they want it in vertical cool. Personally I makes me want to throw up more than Christopher Nolan
