Instagram is a network designed for mobile devices, to take instant photos with our mobile device, apply a filter that has made this social network famous and upload them immediately. And even though we can create a new Instagram account with our computer, and we can also browse to find images that inspire us through hashtags, it is not allowed to upload images to that network directly from the computer. To publish on Instagram from the computer, we must use intermediary tools, to which we can upload the images from our computer, and these applications transfer them to Instagram. There is more than one tool that can do this, but without a doubt the one we like the most is Hootsuite. Below we explain the steps to configure it and start publishing:
You need to have an Instagram account. You can create one through any device on the Instagram website , or by downloading the app from Google Play (Android) or the Apple Store for iOS.
You must have a Hootsuite account, which you can also activate from their website or app.
You must have the Instagram and Hootsuite APPs installed on a mobile device.
Access Hootsuite from your PC , select the option "Add social network" => "Instagram", and follow the steps thailand telegram data indicated (you must validate the registration from your mobile).
Where it says "write message", we write what we want to publish on Instagram. Remember to put a short explanatory text, and from there all the #hashtags that come to mind. Then we add the image by clicking on the clip. We press the calendar icon and select a day and time of publication, or activate automatic publication (recommended).
We send the post for publication. To the left of the text box where we are writing the message, we select the Instagram icon (remember that with Hootsuite we can manage more than one social network at a time). We return to the text and press the "Send now" or "Automatic scheduling" button, depending on what we have activated.
When it's time to publish on Instagram, we'll receive a push notification on our mobile from the Hootsuite app, which will say that we have a message pending to be published. We follow the steps indicated and you'll see how the photo is loaded, which you can crop or add filters to. Once we're ready to publish on Instagram, we continuously press the text box to paste the text we've written in Hootsuite.
Final settings and publication. Here we can select a location (recommended), add some more hashtags, check that everything is ok and... SEND!
