What to post on Instagram?

[Buckberg]

I would like to add that I wasn't saying to never post anything personal, which is how that might have come across. It's true adding something interesting or funny in your daily life will be interesting. But absolutely try to keep 85% of your posts about knife making ... The less you post about knife making the less followers you will get. I would also like to add that I've noticed knife makers in particular have been getting huge numbers of followers and likes lately, a lot more than artists and designers Etc.. Which would mean that there are very few of them on there compared to the amount of people who want to see them working and their final product, so you are getting in at a good time.

definitely don't "buy" likes or followers by any other means than being discovered by people who are actually interested...bought followers will water down your % engagement which can affect the way instagram suggests your account and images to new people...keep it real, keep it legit!

You can buy likes? Here I am just posting pics of my dirty garage.

I will try and follow the guidelines you've given me and post stuff that hopefully will be of interest.

Thanks again for the great info and to the ones who added me to their feed. Already following some of you guys and there are some incredible artists out there. Very inspiring. :thumbup:
