Preliminary operation
To succeed in see visits on Instagram, you must necessarily switch to a company profile. The company profiles of Instagram, in fact, allow you to access the section Insights of the social network, through which it is possible to analyze all the statistics concerning your account.
If at this moment you do not have a corporate Instagram profile, you do not have to fear: you can "convert" your personal account into an account of this type in a few minutes, simply by associating it with a Facebook page (this is a non-mandatory procedure to have a company profile, but it is necessary to enjoy this and other "extra" features of Instagram). Once this is done, you will be able to access the statistical data of your account (which will be collected from the moment you make the "change" of account).
To proceed, first of all start the official Instagram app on your Android or iOS device, log in to your account (in case you have not already done so), tap the button (≡) posto in alto a destra and selects the voice Settings from the menu that appears on the right. On the next screen, select the item Account and tap on the wording Switch to a professional account located at the bottom.

Tips to increase visits on Instagram
By analyzing the statistics of your profile, have you noticed that the number of visits you are getting is quite small? If so, try following i tips to increase visits on Instagram that I am about to give you: snche if I am not in a position to promise you "miracles", I assure you that you should notice some improvements in terms of visibility of your contents.
- Regularly post quality content - since Instagram is a social network that focuses entirely on visual content, it is of fundamental importance that the photos and videos posted are of quality. In addition to posting quality posts in your feed, try to regularly create Stories (sequences of photos and videos that are automatically deleted after 24 hours), as this type of content is highly appreciated by users.
- Be original - try to be as original as possible by avoiding posting content similar to that posted by the rest of the community. If you want to get out of anonymity, try to create your own style, thinking in advance about the content to share with the users who follow you.
- Use popular and relevant hashtags - since hashtags (those words or phrases that are preceded by the symbol #) serve to "label" the contents, to facilitate the retrieval by users who carry out targeted searches on Instagram, it is important to choose the most relevant and popular ones. To do this, I recommend using ad hoc services, such as Top Hashtag and All-Hashtag, and some free apps for smartphones and tablets.
- Engage users - to do this, carry out live broadcasts and surveys, so as to retain the followers who already follow your account and, if possible, get new ones.
- Sponsor content - in addition to following the suggestions indicated in the previous points, I advise you to sponsor the contents you post on Instagram, so as to significantly increase the number of users who view them.
