Question

How do I choose the best person to make a fan page about?

Community Answer

You should choose someone you look up to or think is interesting. This will make creating the fanpage more fun and interesting for you. Don't choose someone you don't like or find boring, just for the sake of popularity.

Question

Is it good to post very often?

Community Answer

Leave some of the pictures for a later date, since you don't want to run out of them in a week. Start out posting between one and four pictures a day.

Question

How do I login into my fanpage if my parents don't like it?

Community Answer

You could go through a private browser. Have both of your Instagram pages logged in (the one your parents know about and the one they don't). Turn off notifications for the fan page so they will not see it on your lock screen.

Question

What can I do if I have a lot of people following me but not many of them leave likes?

That could mean that your followers are inactive. You could use a lot of relevant hashtags, and get more likes that way.

Question

If my fan page develops a large following, is it OK to advertise for companies?

Community Answer

Some people won't like it, but you can do it if you want. Don't post a whole post dedicated to the ad, just leave a simple mention in the caption of your post about the product, along with "DM me for more info."

Question

Can you suggest an app to crop photos for my Instagram fanpage?

I personally recommend Square Sized. Some apps for editing have options to fit the screen, but I feel it may ruin the quality.

Question

How do I get more likes on a picture on Instagram?

Community Answer

If you have a fan page, then you need to tag as many people as you can and use as many tags as you can. Do not comment on other peoples post " like for like ?", or it will make you look really desperate.

Question

How can I write a biography for a fan page?

Community Answer

There are a lot of Instagram accounts specially made for bio ideas, but here are a few tips: If you want it aesthetic, come up with an emoji combo (or search emoji combos on google) that match the theme of your page. Then you can put a cute quote of how you feel about your idol or one they said, and you could also say something about what your fanpage is about. Add emojis because they improve the experience.

Question

What good editing apps are there that don't use a watermark?

Audrey Lee

Community Answer

For photo editing, Picsart, Phonto and Polarr are mostly used. For video editing, Videostar has no watermark, but it is iOS only. There are also apps that you can pay to remove the watermark, such as Cute Cut Pro (iOS/Android) and Alight Motion (Android).
