Frequently Asked Questions
Instagram allows up to 30 hashtags, but 3-5 highly relevant hashtags perform better than 30 random ones. Quality and relevance matter more than quantity.
Reels get 2-3x more reach than static photos. Post Reels for outfit transitions, decoration tours, and recipe videos. Use carousel posts for detailed outfit breakdowns or multiple decoration angles.
Post consistently (1x daily during festivals), engage with comments within 30 minutes, collaborate with other creators in your niche, and use trending audio in Reels. Festival content has high search volume — capitalize on it.
