I use Instagram solely for posting cool car pics. Sadly, all the pics I post get around 10 likes. This makes me sad. Meanwhile, a girl I know posts a pic of a pillow and it gets 200 likes. Please help.What am I doing wrong? Im JQJ213 on Instagram (shameless I know). Thanks!

As our resident social network aficionado, I stay away from Instagram mainly because Twitter does the same exact thing as Instagram does, only it does a lot more things.

The only issue with that is the character limit and lack of filters.. I use the subtle ones since they usually help

If Oppo was better for posting a lot of pics and was used by a ton more people, id use it. But I want to become somewhat recognized

Post car pictures, but don't worry about getting likes. I tag my photos appropriately and don't go overboard with 4 lines of hashtags. Not every photo will get a ton of likes either. Some fare better than others, simply because of content. I barely even post to mine.
That's like all I've posted since the year began.

yea, its hard to do that today. i saw save up the cool pics for about a week, and then post them on oppo in 1 post per week.

i think i instagramed once. i had to use someone elses account, so technically she instagramed for me. but a puppy pic got 10 likes, even with her confusing hashtags.

If she's anything like all the girls I know, she goes on her phone all the time, asks people for their Facebook/Snapchat/Instagram and probably has more followers than real friends.
There's your answer. :P

I have two accounts one personal and one I share with a sailing buddy for out team and on the team page we get way more likes simply because we hashtag most of the pics #gopro as most are taken with a gopro and people look for that hashtag and just like every pic so if you desperately want more likes you could always go that route.

While I do have 7,000 followers, I don't understand a lot about it. I got my photos posted with credit by one of the largest pages a few times which got me almost all of the followers I have, but very few seem to be genuine car guys as opposed to a few thousand people who just like looking at nice cars. One other thing that I dislike is the fact that it all seems to be about luck- Some amazing photographers with expensive setups only have a few hundred followers while some (including myself) just use an iPhone and have a few thousand or more. Although it has brought the attention of some very cool people and given me some amazing opportunities it's all just a big blob of photos and people. I just have fun with it as much as I can.
