If you are a big fan of social media sites, or even if you aren’t a big fan of them, you have probably heard of Instagram. But what exactly is Instagram?
Instagram is a site that connects to many other social media accounts, letting you share links and photos from one platform to the next without any issues or complications. You can upload a photo to Instagram and have it link to your other social media accounts and that photo will then be shared to whichever accounts you chose to let it share to.
Instagram can also be used without any other social media accounts. You can create an account and use that as your main source of social media. Some people gain so many followers that they actually start to make money when they post photos on the platform.
Instagram has a few different ways you can upload content to the site. The first is just uploading a picture, you can take one from your gallery or you can snap a picture and upload it immediately from your phone or mobile device.
The second way you can upload content is by posting a story. A story on Instagram is a vertical video or picture that will be shown for a chosen amount of time, and after 24 hours that photo is sent to the archive and no one can view it again unless you re-upload it to your story.
Another way you can upload content is by going live. Instagram has a feature that will allow you to live-stream whatever you are doing, you can ask questions, put up polls, or talk to your followers through a video call setting during the live stream.
