Why do people buy Instagram comments?

It takes more time and energy to leave a comment than it does to hit a like button. Your reader has to first think about your comment and then formulate and type out a response.

It doesn't sound like much, but when you're reading hundreds of posts every day, leaving comments for everyone can become very time-consuming.

People only tend to put in the effort to leave a comment when they are extremely engaged with your content. This means that it's much harder to get Instagram comments than it is to get likes for example.

Because of the extra effort they take, comments are also more highly valued by Instagram's algorithm. This makes them a lot more desirable for businesses and influencers, who often choose to buy comments to boost their Instagram visibility.

The more bought comments you have, the more organic comments you are likely to receive, which is another reason that people might choose to purchase Instagram comments.

Buying Instagram comments can also save you the time and effort of creating the type of content that makes people want to engage to the point that they are compelled to leave a comment.

Having said that though, even if you are buying some of your Instagram comments, you shouldn't rely on them solely. Aim to put out engaging content when you can to attract more followers and grow your account.

It can be incredibly difficult to stand out on Instagram because there is so much competition. Using a service like ours can help you to get noticed.

Some people also use our comments service because it increases their social proof and credibility on Instagram. All of Buzzvoice’s social media marketing packages, including this one, are designed to help increase your visibility, exposure, engagement levels and sales.

Our top tips on how to get more comments on Instagram.

Run a contest or give away.

Run a contest or giveaway, either on Instagram directly or on any of your other social media accounts and promote it on Instagram. People love nothing more than getting something for free so this method is guaranteed to increase your Instagram engagement.

Simply choose a suitable prize (your audience must find it highly desirable), then announce your competition and encourage people to enter by leaving a comment. This is a great social media strategy that has proven to be very effective for many of our clients to increase the number of comments they receive.

To take it one step further, encourage the submission of user-generated content as part of your contest.

Directly ask users to engage.

If you want more comments, why not try asking for them! This may sound simple, but so many people forget to do it and the number of comments they receive suffers as a result.

To get the most comments, post direct questions that are easy to answer or ask your followers to share their opinion on a topic of interest. Controversial topics work particularly well for this.

You could also ask your audience to share their experiences or give advice.

Use trending hashtags to increase visibility.

Find out what the most popular hashtags are in your niche and include them in your posts. If you do this your posts will appear in more searches and therefore your engagement, including the number of comments you receive, is likely to increase.

Also if users see that you are continuously talking about the topics that they are most interested in, they may decide to leave an organic comment or share your content in the future.

Post your comments when your audience is most active.

The timing of your post can have a huge impact on the number of comments you receive.

The optimum time to post will be different for every niche, so it's important to do your research in this respect. As many of our clients can tell you, it really pays to find out when your specific audience is most active and post during the most lucrative times.

Post pictures of human faces or animals.

Research that was carried out by Yahoo Labs & the Georgia Institute of Technology has shown that posts with pictures of people's faces in them receive, on average, 32% more comments.

Try filling your feed with plenty of selfies, group shots and/or photos of your team and you should see a significant increase in the number of comments you get on those posts.

Unsurprisingly, posts with pictures of animals in them also do incredibly well on Instagram. Even if your business isn't directly animal related, with a little creativity, you can find a way to include animal pictures and take advantage of the power that animal images have to bring in the comments on Instagram.
