How to create an Instagram profile?

marketing textbook

Instagram’s interface is completely different from the look of other social networks – here, when you get into your profile, someone sees only photos at first. It is important that the profile image is beautiful and thoughtful: it will drive users to sign up, improve usability and reduce advertising costs.

Compliance with the branding of the brand

To make your Instagram profile recognizable, it is important to stick to your brand identity. It is of course not necessary to completely copy the design of the site or product packaging, but the overall style must be recognizable.

Choosing a color palette

To combine photos taken in different subjects and lighting, it is important to choose one color palette for the profile. This will help achieve harmony.

Correct composition

A single style is enough if you just post beautiful photos on Instagram. But if you plan on making money on Instagram, you should move on. And for starters – to understand the composition rules that apply when shooting a subject.

The correct composition has:

focus: the subject you want to focus on;

props: surrounding objects that create a plot and atmosphere;

negative space: the background on which the gaze rests. It makes the photo less cluttered and also creates the subject and atmosphere.

Build your profile visuals based on these rules. For example, use product catalog photos as focus, lifestyle product photos as props, and entertainment posts as negative space.

Content placement

Many brands and bloggers post content following a pattern the reader is accustomed to.

Color accents

In addition to the location of the shots, you can play with the color scheme.
