- 2. As a busy business owner, you very likely have a lot more on your mind than managing your social media accounts. However, ignoring your socials could mean neglecting one of your most lucrative markets. Recent statistics show that the number of regular social media users has grown to a whopping 4.7 billion people. Put into context, that’s nearly 60% of the total global population. However, even this massive figure fails to capture the true extent of social media usage because most social media companies restrict users to those above 13; once the under 13s are factored out, social media concentration comprises over 75% of the world’s eligible population. Now that we have your attention, we’ll turn to the objective of this blog- How to leverage the power of Instagram for marketing purposes without working from your mobile phone.
- 3. Instagram From a Desktop In the past, link building focused on quantity with little regard for quality. Unsurprisingly, search engines like Google have released several upgrades over the years that now not only ignore this type of spammy linking but will actively penalize it. You would think that creating Instagram ads from a desktop would be NBD – and you would be wrong. Instagram was designed first and foremost as a mobile app and desktop functionality is minimal, to say the least. This desktop platform disconnect presents a significant hurdle for users, particularly those who regularly use Instagram for marketing purposes. Working from a mobile device can be distracting, and we’ve all fallen victim to unfortunate typos while typing on tiny screens. The good news is some workarounds can help you access all Instagram’s ad features without working from a cellphone.

In other words, your standard cellphone snaps just aren’t going to cut it. Along with the ability to create an Instagram feed post from your desktop, you also have access to all of Instagram’s editing tools. Use pre-set filters or craft your own through the Adjustments tab.
- 6. 3. Capture Attention with a Caption: This is where you’ll truly be grateful for the ability to Instagram from your computer- crafting attention-grabbing captions. While your pictures are the focus, the caption is crucial to a successful marketing ad campaign. Let’s face it, typing legible copy is much easier from a full keyboard. You can create, edit, and organize your caption from your desktop, even adding things like emojis by clicking the smiley-face icon. Another great feature available through the desktop Instagram platform is the ability to hide views, likes, and comments, something you might want to consider if you’re planning on turning a post into an ad. Voila, that’s it and you’re ready to share.
