3 Key Components of Building an Instagram Community
Building a large Instagram following can often be quite challenging for brands. To date, the photo sharing super-network is almost completely a mobile one, and to further the challenge, Twitter recently cut off Instagram users from being able to find out which of their Twitter friends are also on Instagram. Instagram is tough, but it is worth it. Images are such a gigantic part of social content sharing these days and Instagram does a great job at simplifying the process. If you have a visual story to tell, Instagram should be part of your digital marketing playbook. So how the heck do you build a following on a network that is so tough to find people on? Hashtags Hashtags are a critical component of building an Instagram following. You always want to include one or more hash tags in every photo you upload.

6 Easy Tips for Living with 100 Items or Less
Every few months, it seems like I read another story about someone who has sold or donated nearly everything they own, reducing their total number of personal possessions to under 100 items. There are lots of reasons for a person to want to do this. Maybe you’re moving across the country (or to a different country), and you need to pack light. Perhaps you’re trying to reduce your carbon footprint. Maybe you just watched a marathon of “Hoarders” and you’re feeling like it’s time to clean house. Whatever your motive, if you want to try living with 100 items or less, you’ll need to start thinking about what items you can’t live without. 1. Once you know what you have, categorize it. 2. A couch that converts into a bed is perfect for visiting guests. 3. For example, say you are a heavy tea drinker. 4. 5. Don’t be afraid of ditching something you might need in the future. 6. Obviously, your needs will vary depending on what line of work you are in.
