Continuing our series of "So Easy Social Media", we're diving into how to gain followers on Instagram without any money and hardly any effort 1. SETTING UP YOUR ACCOUNT: Don't be Empty Start with 5-10 pictures when opening a new account. Don't start following people or creating stories with an “empty” page. One Link. One Shot. IG only let's you post one link in your profile. You can NOT post a link anywhere else, including your posts & stories (unless they're a paid promotional post on a business page) Linktr.ee let's you post all your links in a mobile friendly looking site with buttons. (You must upgrade for in-depth stats, auto updates, and color customization) I recommend a A “Subscribe” button at the TOP A “Listen/Watch/Play” button A “Visit Website” Button Maybe a contact/email button Or design it on your own site... Use bit.ly or google link shortener to track clicks from Instagram Keep it Personal Instagram is following the footsteps of Facebook (since they are Facebook, basically, anyway) and showing brands less and people more. You get stats with a business page. You need stats to track which posts are doing well, but you can get a good idea based on “likes”. With a business page you also get insights on stories to see how many people visit your profile, do a call of action (phone, e-mail, or website), exit your story, view the next story. This can be useful to look at but the price you pay of less exposure isn't worth it, in my opinion. You can make promotional posts/ads, which allows you to post links (but that costs money) You can add an e-mail or call button as well as products you can tag for Facebook shopping or integrate it with Shopify/BigCommerce. You can also link a Facebook page to cross post ( otherwise your posts will go to your personal Facebook page) BUT... Instagram punishes business profiles. They are shown less, given less priority. Your followers may NOT see your posts, which is bullsht You can always switch back and forth between the two types though at anytime. You do NOT lose your stats. There may be some exposure punishment to do this if you do it too often. 2. MAKING YOUR POSTS What to Post Memes your niche would laugh at Quotes your niche would be inspired by from big influencers or your own blog. Shots of activities your niche would enjoy (ones that you're doing anyway if you're targeting a niche you're personally active in and a part of) Make your page look like there's plenty of variety. Don't have all your posts be of the same exact thing but with different angles Make lighting, colors, and fonts different. A page that looks too much of the same looks boring and people won't follow it. Make a short video up to 60 seconds (limit). Give quick insight, informative commentary or a humorous opinion. Take clips from your YouTube videos if you're creating content there or from your podcast Create an audiogram with Headliner (free) Put a custom waveform shape & color on a background image you choose and include a logo. You can caption it too. There's an auto caption feature but it's not that accurate, so you'll have to edit it manually. Just type what you hear. Most people are browsing with sound off, seeing a moving waveform may encourage them to turn up volume. Seeing captions let's them read the content without adjusting volume, which they may not be able to do depending on where they are. Captioning videos and audiograms is optional but may help with views and engagement. Create a Collage (on “Layout” separate app) with multiple photos of an event relevant to your niche (ComiCon, Car Show, Hogwarts at Universal Studios, etc.) You can repurpose these collages in a story too. Make a mix of albums, layouts single photos, and videos on your profile. Don't stick to one format or media type. You can post promotional content but remember the 80/20 rule. Find the Content Use your own content and repurpose it for the platform. Quotes for your blog, clips from your videos and podcasts, etc. Find quotes on WIkiQuote or BrainyQuote or just google “[Name] quote” or “quotes about [niche]” Find memes on 9Gag, Memecenter, 4Chan, or Reddit Look on on t-shirt sites (Redbubble, TeeSpring, Threadless, TeeFury) and find niche related designs. Credit the author always. Tag them if you can. Sell the designs in your own TeePublic store ...or post & sell your own designs Follow hashtags relevant to your niche and large influencers Design it Use a site likeGetFunky or Canva to create “Quote-a-Grams” GIMP or ArtWeaver for FREE photoshop. Create a template with your logo. Play around with saturation, brightness, color balance, layout, and transparency. Font Squirrel or 1001 Fonts - free commercial use fonts FreePik and Needpix for background images (creative commons license photos) Repost it There's no native feature to repost or share someone else's post, so you have to use a third party app Use Repost App to well, repost. It'll put a slug of the username of who you reposted it from. You have to manually tag that person. Caption it Write something witty. One liners. No more than a paragraph. If you can't think of anything, copy & paste a comment from the original meme. Give a plug at the end. Mention how the post is relevant to a recent blog or video then say “Link in bio” You can't hyperlink in IG posts, unfortunately. You only get that one link in your profile and that's it (unless you pay for promotion but we like doing this the cheap way, cause we're chepa & lazy) Tag It There is a 30 limit per post hash tag limit per post For the most exposure, use as many hash tags as possible Use a tool like Display Purposes to search for relevant hash tags and copy them Instavast let's you select specific hash tags then copy the ones you check in a box. You can also upload image or URL 3-5 hash tags is the sweet spot to not seem too spammy. You could start with the max 30 and later delete most of the hash tags. IG is mostly focused photos, but people do read the captions and comments. I wouldn't recommend EVERY post being filled to the max with hash tags for that reason. Otherwise, you'll come across as annoying and spammy. You can also leave a comment or two on your own post with even more hash tags, but again don't be overzealous. Are you likely to follow an account with nothing but hash tags in the captions and comments? Probably not, so don't do it too much,Most of the engagement comes from stories on IG. People are swiping through stories more than scrolling the feed (now in 2018). Make compelling stories. Give context. Every story has a Beginning, Middle, and End Use one or two hash tags Behind the scenes, “daily life”, more personal than posts Each video is limited to 15 secs. Use Story Cutter app or iOS equivalent to automatically cut up a long video into segments. Remember: consistency. You can start out doing a post or story once or twice a week and eventually level up your game to do something daily. Just be consistent with your post time. Pick a day, any day you want. Pick a time, any time you want. There are charts and graphs out there that show you the peak time of engagement but typically it's between 2-4pm. Don't worry about hitting that deadline though. You can choose when you like to post and your audience will follow you, as long as it's consistent. Also, you can make promotional announcements “Hey I just posted a new blog/video/podcast” but again, follow the 80/20 rule. You can see who views your story. Keep this in mind later when you decide who to interact with, strategically. 4. LIKE, FOLLOW, UNFOLLOW Follow hash tags relevant to your niche. Like the “most recent” posts. Look at the top posts in a hash tag or from someone big in your niche and follow the people who like and commentthere. Keep your follow count less than double of your followers. People might think you're just a spam account if your follower/following proportion is too skewed. Some people unfollow everyone, but that might get your actual followers to unfollow you To find out your unfollowers, you must use a third party app. The Follow Cop Android app lets you unfollow in batches. 20 for free and 200 for paid. One time fee. CopyFollowers by Dominator House is a good app for copying the followers of big influencers The down side of this is you blindly copy the followers and don't see who's actually engaging so you'll get a lot more “duds” this way, but it will be on auto pilot. Limits: Trusted account Likes: one like in 28 – 36 seconds (1000 at a time, with a 24 hour break); Follows: one in 28 – 38 seconds and below 200 an hour (1000 a day, with a 24 hour break); Follow + Like: below 2000 (1000 + 1000) a day, at the rate of once every 28 – 38 seconds; Limit of Comments: below 12-14 an hour with a 350 - 400 seconds break New accounts: The actions interval for the first 12-20 days after the account has been created is 36-48 seconds; The total limit is 500 actions a day (follow, unfollow, like); 5. INTERACT* IG is starting to punish “spam” accounts They are hiding posts of people who do what I just told you to do: follow a bunch of people, unfollow the unfollowers, and tag your posts with a bunch of hash tags So to avoid being labeled as a “spam” account, have some meaningful comments and DMs with your current followers Meaningful does not mean effortful. Think about your most favorite movie moments. It all comes down to one memorable and powerful line. One meaningful sentence. “Luke, I am your father” “Asta La Vista Baby. “We're not flying; we're falling with style” Make it short but have impact. Questions are an easy way to get interaction. The person will likely answer. If IG sees people are replying to and liking your posts and comments, they'll see you're providing value and not just spam. Comment on posts and reply to stories of your followers. Target your active followers - the people that like and comment on your posts, the ones that watch your story from beginning to end. Develop a relationship with your actives. Show them you're a real person and not just a spammy bot or billboard. Just a couple per day. No need to spend hours doing this and no need to get every single follower. In other words, use IG as you normally would, if you weren't trying to promote your own website/brand Follow me on IG: @a_procrastin8r Check out the Lazy R' Us T-Shirt Shop: http://www.LazyRUs.com or http://www.procrastin8r.com/shop SUMMARY: SETUP: Start w/ 5- 10 posts. Keep your profile as personal. Make that one link count POSTS: gather memes, quotes, activities, reposts from top influencers, repurpose your own content, hash tag the heck out of it. Be consistent with your post schedule. STORIES: include beginning, middle end, behind the scenes and personal life, make special announcements (but limit it) GET FOLLOWERS: follow people liking and commenting on top influencers and posts, unfollow your unfollowers, like most recent posts in your niche INTERACT: leave short comments on your current followers posts and send them DMs, like you normally would using IG.

Episode 2 - Dirt Simple Photo Gallery Dirt Simple Photo Gallery is the program that started me down the Plain Text Programs path. It predates my own thinking about Plain Text Programs by at least a decade. Ever since I wrote it I use it all the time. It is now my preferred web page generator for all kinds of web pages, not just galleries. Like most of my programs I wrote it because I needed it. Vivian and I were putting on music events like Blues Fest, Sunday In The Park, Jazz Thursday, New Jazz In Jonesboro, and Bebopalooza. I recorded all the shows. Sometimes video, always audio. And we loved taking pictures of the musicians singing and playing. After the shows we would dump the photo files to a hard drive, make all the original photos read only, and back them up to a CD or DVD. We really enjoyed scrolling through the photos, picking the ones we liked, cropping them and enhancing them, and resizing them for the internet. And then that's where it fell apart. We recorded the show. We took the pictures. We cropped the pictures and had them ready to go for our Delta Boogie website. And we didn't want to write the html. Some days we would have five or six bands playing. We usually had ten to twenty photos of each band that we picked out of hundreds of photos taken. Do the math. That's a lot of typing HTML code like a href =, img src, etc. A lot a captions to write. A lot of work to get done in a week. Because the next weekend we had another show. Another set of photos. Another bunch of html backlog. And the thing I found out. If we didn't get the pages posted right away we almost never had time to post them later. I mean we had kids to raise, cooking to do, cars to fix, school to attend, not to mention work. So, I loved writing programs more than I loved marking up html. And I could write one program and avoid marking up tons of html. And so I wrote the Dirt Simple Photo Gallery. Even back in the dark ages of the internet also known as the nineties there were photo gallery programs. And just like today they were cumbersome and running them was a lot like data entry. You know what I hate worse than writing html? Data entry. I had this idea. I would take all the photos we had ready for a gallery and I would upload them to a directory on our server. Then I would upload an index.php file and we'd have a photo gallery. And that's just how Dirt Simple Photo Gallery works. And if that's really all you need you're done. It wasn't quite all we needed. So I added a title.txt file and a notes.txt file so there could be a bit more than just the photos and captions on the web page. I was careful that I didn't have to write any html in the notes.txt file. The program even automatically turns copy and pasted links into hot links. Now, you can include html in the notes.txt file. You can even embed iframes if you want to include an audio or video player. But you don't have to. Also, iframe embeds are just a copy and paste exactly like links. Easy peasy. There's also the problem of the captions and the sort order of the photos. Captions I use the file names to carry the meta data required for captions and sort order. These are the characters I use in the file names. Alphanumeric, commas, apostrophes, dashes, and underscores. I don't use spaces but the underscores are converted to spaces in the captions. I use Thunar and I love the bulk rename option where I can search and replace a set of file names and change all the spaces into underscores. I have code that allows you to include special characters in your captions by using html character sets but it's confusing to think about. And I discovered the only special characters I really needed were dashes, commas, and apostrophes. All three of these characters are legal in file names on all major systems. Dashes are not problematic. Commas can cause problems if you are using comma delimited data but, I'm not, so no worries. Apostrophes can also be an issue because in php they are used as single quotes and can be used to delimit strings in the code. There is a way around this with php. Use double quotes to surround the entire string. If there is a place inside of that string where you would use single quotes, which is not uncommon in html, replace the single quotes with escaped double quotes, that is ". So that's what I did. So now I can use all the apostrophes I want in my file names and they fly right through my code, never accidentally truncating a string and throwing errors. Commas and apostrophes are important in captions. Captioning group shots without commas leads to misunderstanding people's names. And if your caption has a possessive in it like Joe's Garage leaving the apostrophe out is just wrong. Using double quotes in a file name will truncate strings in the php code and throw errors. Usually, anywhere you would want a double quote a single quote will do. There are other special characters, like dashes, that aren't problematic. Forward slashes and back slashes should not be used in file names ever. Some special characters may work on some systems and not on others. I've been using this program for almost 25 years and I really want commas and apostrophes and don't really care about other special characters in captions. You may have special needs for special characters I don't. That's why it's open source. If you need something the program isn't designed to provide test it. Fix it. Right now there are fewer than 100 lines of code in the program. I have confidence in you. Sorting Default sorting of images is alphabetical by file name. If you just name your files with good captions and don't add any numbers as a prefix that's what you'll get. Alphabetical by caption. This may be just what you need. If, however, you want some other sort order you can prefix your files with nnn- where n is any integer. 000-filename.ext displays the picture at the top of the page. If the photo is narrow enough, the text from notes.txt will wrap around it to the left. All the photos numbered 001- to 999- will display in a single column below the text. Unnumbered photos will also display below the text in alphabetical order. So if you want a photo at the top of the page add the prefix 000- to the file name. If alphabetical order is what you want for the rest of the photos you don't have to rename them. Permitted extensions are jpg, png, or gif. (It's hapeg stupid!) It's easy to add other permitted extensions in the code but, of course, they have to be rendered by a browser. I did not include the jpeg extension choosing to rename jpeg files to jpg. This made it slightly easier to code. There is a config.inc file where you can set your table width. The default is 700. I resize my photos to be 600 max width. I usually use jpg files with a quality level of 90. This reduces storage space and enables fast loading of images. The config.inc file also allows you to change background color, text color, link color, etc. There is also a CSS section in the config.inc file so you can change the font, the headline sizes, etc. Or add your own CSS. If you have trouble getting the text wraparound to look good on your page there is a way to disable it in the config.inc file. Install the page with ftp. Make a directory, where you want it on your website, and give it a good name. Upload index.php, title.txt, notes.txt, config.inc, and the image files into the directory. Go to your website and check it out. That's it. Page maintenance is the same. Fix captions by renaming files. Add and delete images. Update the title or the text in notes.txt and upload the changes. Change the font, colors, or CSS in config.inc and upload the changes. I have put up a demo site on infinityfree.com. And I am posting my show notes on my blog at https://home.gamerplus.org/ I will include links there to the demo site, the link to the comment thread for this podcast on Mastodon, and the link to the git repository on Codeberg.

Hear firsthand just how crucial we are to keeping the legal wheels turning in the Big Apple.

Are you crafting a memorable video narrative?Do you want to learn how to craft a video narrative that leaves a lasting impression on your audience?How can you shift your perspective to make your customers the heroes of your brand's narrative?Today, we discuss Brand Stories in Motion: Crafting a Memorable Video Narrative. Watch it on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7MOJZ9dk6I.Get the Transcription Here: https://bit.ly/BIGVUPodcast89In the world of branding, storytelling has emerged as a powerful tool that transcends the transactional nature of business, forging deep and lasting connections with audiences. Consequently, brands play the role of guiding mentors in the customer's narrative, aligning their values with those of their audience. However, in today's crowded digital landscape, the challenge lies in standing out amidst the noise. Brands often struggle to create narratives that resonate authentically with their audience, leading to a disconnect. It's crucial to recognize that customers crave genuine connections with brands, and merely transactional interactions fall short of fulfilling this need.It has been said that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Hence, to truly succeed in crafting memorable narratives through video, aspiring brand storytellers must first understand the unique journeys of their audience members. Empathy is the cornerstone; stepping into the shoes of customers, understanding their pain points, and offering meaningful solutions. Additionally, consistent messaging and an unwavering commitment to authenticity will pave the way for enduring connections. As the renowned marketer, Seth Godin, aptly puts it, "People do not buy goods and services. They buy relations, stories, and magic."You'll learn how to:Adapt the Hero's Journey to fit your brand narrative without it feeling clichéd or forcedUse emotional vignettes to create a lasting impact on your audienceMaintain consistency in your brand narrative, while also evolving and staying relevant to changing times and audience preferencesOrganically integrate brand values and USPs into your story without making the narrative overly promotional or sales.About our Speaker:Steven Picanza is a Creative Brand Strategist, Branding Expert, Fractional Chief Brand, and Marketing Officer, and Host of the Branders Magazine Podcast.

Ever wondered how a simple idea during physiotherapy school turned into a thriving podcast? Curious about how to make the most of your time and skills to achieve your goals? In this episode of Healthcare Hacks and Connections, Nate welcomes guest Dalton Laino, a business owner, runner, and coffee lover who is currently focused on building The Movement Physio & Performance to empower people to take control of their health. Dalton shares the origin story of his podcast, PT Coffeecast, explaining that he and his business partner, Will, started it while they were in physiotherapy school. They wanted to use the podcast as a platform to discuss and improve the profession. Also, in this episode, Dalton discusses how the podcast has evolved over time and its initial purpose of bridging the gap between student learning and current industry trends in healthcare. Overall, the episode highlights the evolution of social media usage in business. It underscores the importance of utilizing social media as a tool for self-expression, communication, and attracting the right audience, rather than solely focusing on going viral. Nate and Dalton encourage listeners to prioritize tasks, acquire necessary skills, and make the most of their time to achieve their goals. They will touch on such topics asThe start and inspiration of PT Coffeecast, transitioning the podcast from an interview-based to a podcast-based approach: “The mission of the movement is to change the way people feel about healthcare, including the industry and clinicians.”Mentorship and audience demographics, transitioning Instagram brand to business, and the difference in how social media influence Canada and the USA.Using social media effectively by connecting with people in multiple realms, owning The Movement Physio & Performance, and bringing a different flavor to the business.The importance of details and progress photos for your business, and learning from the mentorship and moving forward: “The timing of the mentorship makes sense, and it takes a while to accept that you may not be ready to do what you really want to do yet.”Revenue and profit goals, YouTube podcast world evolution, and how often they plan out mentorship.Captioning for social media, understanding and empathizing with others, and never being afraid to put in the work. Hack: “When it comes to partnerships or collaborating with brands, I think the most important thing is something that we've always done is just making sure that that business, that person, that company aligns with your values and you align with them.” Dalton Laino Reach Out to Dalton:Listen to his Podcast- PT Coffeecast:Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ptcoffeecast/id1336306312Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2xHwo1hgZG1Kq4aOwKhrIT?si=BpBQWZpIToyVbNlTQVcoFAInstagram: @ptcoffeecast@themvmtpts Reach out to Me:Instagram: @thepodcast_docFacebook: www.facebook.com/nate.navas (0:00:00) - Public Company Executive to Lifestyle EngineerGeneral McChrystal and I discussed failure, inspiring conversations, and lessons learned. (0:11:58) - The Resignation and Moving ForwardGeneral McChrystal discussed transitioning from military to civilian life, Obama's momentous decision, and the power of moving forward. (0:22:17) - Leaving, Starting, and Finding LiberationStan McChrystal's story of career transition, spouse support, liberation, and impact on others is discussed. (0:29:55) - Duty and Resilience From Stanley McChrystalStan shared his journey to a new life, his thoughts on difficult situations, and his inspiring message about decency, honor, and inspiration. (0:34:59) - Promotion of Book and PodcastGeneral Stanley McChrystal's journey from Afghanistan to meeting the President, his spouse's support, and his leadership skills are explored.

Michael Cooper works for the World Wide Web Consortium's Web Accessibility Initiative, and he was attending the XR Access Symposium to learn more about the existing XR accessibility efforts but also to moderate a break-out session about captions in XR. One of Cooper's big takeaways is that there is no magical, one-size-fits-all solution to captioning in XR because people have different needs, different preferences, and different contexts that means that there is a need for frameworks to help make captions easily customizable. There are a lot of potential customizable options for spatial captions that include distance from the speaker, text size, text color, weight, layout, the size of the box, whether or not they have transparent boxes, preventing occlusion of objects by the captions, whether it moves with the speaker or not, and how to handle off-screen speakers. Gallaudet University's Christian Vogler warned XR Access participants about the dangers of doing a one-to-one translation for how captions are handled in 2D into how they're handled in 3D since there different modalities like haptics that could help reduce information overload. One of the demos that was being shown at the XR Access Symposium implemented a wide range of these different spatial caption options, and so there is a need to develop an framework for the different game engines and the open web with WebXR as well as an opportunity at the platform level like with the Apple Vision Pro or Meta Quest ecosystem to implement a captioning framework. Cooper told me in this interview, "I do think that we need design guidance. There are a lot of good ways to do captions in XR. There are some bad ways to do it, and so we need people to know about that. Going down the road, I think that we are going to need to develop semantic formats for the captions and for the objects that they represent. So there's a lot of excitement about that. But again, there's a big sense of caution that the space is so early that we don't want to overstandardize. And as a person who works for a standards organization, that's a big takeaway that I have to take." It's again worth bringing up what Khronos Group President Neil Trevett told to me about the process of standardization, “The number one golden rule of standardization is don't do R&D by standardization committee… Until we have multiple folks doing the awesome necessary work of Darwinian experimentation, until we have multiple examples of a needed technology and everyone is agreeing that it's needed and how we would do it, but we're just doing it in annoyingly different ways. That's the point at which standardization can help.” It's still very early days for this type of Darwinian experimentation with Owlchemy Labs' innovations of captioning starting with Vacation Simulator in October 2019 as well as the captioning experiments and accessibility features by ILM Immersive (formerly ILMxLAB) within Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy's Edge. The live captioning within social VR platform of AltSpaceVR was also pretty groundbreaking (RIP AltSpaceVR), and VRChat has had a number of Speech-to-Text implementations including ones that can be integrated into an avatar including VRCstt (and their RabidCrab's TTS Patreon), VRCWizard's TTS-Voice-Wizard, and VRC STT System. There were also a number of unofficial, community-made accessibility mods before VRChat's Easy Anti-Cheat change eliminated all quality-of-life mods such as VRC-CC and VRC Live Captions Mod. There have also been a number of different strategies within 360 videos over the years that would burn in captions at either 1, 2, or 3 different locations. The more locations the captions, then more ability one has to to look around without missing any action within the environment and still be able to read the captions. At Laval Virtual 2023, I saw some integrations of OpenAI's Whisper to do live transcription and captioning as they were feeding text into ChatGPT 3.5.
