Instagram is a social networking app made for sharing photos and videos from a smartphone.

Similar to Facebook or Twitter, everyone who creates an Instagram account has a profile and a news feed.

When you post a photo or video on Instagram, it will be displayed on your profile. Other users who follow you will see your posts in their own feed. Likewise, you’ll see posts from other users whom you choose to follow.

UNDERSTANDING VISUAL MARKETING.

Social media and online searches have moved from desktops to mobile, meaning fewer words, more pictures and videos is now the name of the game.

As part of your overall marketing strategy, Instagram should fit in with your visual marketing strategy.
