Here’s Why Instagram Is The Ideal Platform To Market Your Business In 2018
With Facebook’s monopoly in social media marketing coming to an end, Instagram is emerging as an extremely effective and influential platform for marketing of your business.
Here’s what makes Instagram the ideal platform for marketing of your business.

Accommodating Algorithms

Facebook has been making a lot of changes to their algorithms over the past few years and this has changed the way posts and adverts are displayed on one’s newsfeed. Due to the fact that Facebook is overcrowded, they’ve amended their algorithms in an attempt to display the most relevant content on one’s newsfeed. This, however, means that not all posts are displayed on one’s newsfeed and some posts or advertisements may actually stay hidden.
In Instagram’s case, however, the algorithms are less complex and all the posts are displayed. This means that if you’re looking to advertise your products on social media using organic means (non-paid methods), Instagram is the ideal platform.
