If you are looking to promote your school or institution on social media, then using education hashtags on Instagram can be a great way to promote your content. Using hashtags can help you attract more Instagram followers, avoid getting shadowbanned, and connect with other educators.
With more parents, teachers and students using the internet and social media to get more done, making sure your brand or organization has a following online is ideal. And through the use of social media marketing and bringing users back to your website or blog, the results are even better.
In this article we will go over a few tips to make sure you’re posting relevant content. We’ll also discuss how to avoid getting shadowbanned, use branded hashtags, and connect with other teachers.
Creating Reels
Creating a reel for an education establishment is a great way to increase reach and share more educational content with your followers. However, creating such a reel requires forward planning. Using a content planner will allow you to record ideas and ensure a strategy that aligns with your brand. You should also use the insights section of the Instagram app to see how your content is performing compared to others.
When creating your reel, choose the background music and audio. You can record original audio or use sounds from the Instagram library. You can even include text or other users’ videos to give your reel a personal touch. When recording reels, you can use Instagram’s video editing tool to add effects, speed up or slow them down. Then, choose a caption for your reel. If you use a caption, you can include a link to the original audio.
Avoiding shadowbanned hashtags
One way to avoid being shadowbanned on Instagram is by not using the wrong hashtags. These hashtags are not officially banned, but you can check the functionality of hashtags on Instagram by searching them. It’s important to use only fresh content and avoid hand-generated spam. To avoid being shadowbanned, use the right hashtags for your topic and be aware of any hashtags that are banned.
One way to avoid being shadowbanned is to post something other than an education-related hashtag. You can do this by selecting a hashtag that doesn’t have many followers. You can also test your hashtag’s effectiveness by examining its ‘Recent’ section to see how many times it has been used. If your post appears in the ‘Recent’ section, then it’s safe to use it.
Using branded hashtags
Hashtags are not just a fad on the internet; they actually have a lot of impact. According to a study by SchoolCEO, tweets that contain branded hashtags receive 55% more engagement than those that don’t. But while hashtags can help your followers find your posts, only 16% of school districts are consistently using them. Here are a few ways to use hashtags effectively to grow your school’s following.
Use education specific hashtags in your posts. These hashtags have a greater chance of appearing in Instagram’s Recent section. Because the algorithm sorts posts by recency, they will get ranked higher in the Explore section. If you add hashtags to a post later, you’ll have to pay close attention to the post’s original date. Repeated content is not only against the Instagram community guidelines, but also the Instagram algorithm.
Connecting with other teachers
While there are numerous ways to connect with other educators on Instagram, some of them are particularly effective. In particular, education hashtags can help you stay up-to-date on trends and ideas in early childhood education. These hashtags are also a great way to keep up with the latest in blended learning, which blends face-to-face learning with Elearning. Similarly, early childhood education can sometimes get lost in the noise of the rest of the education world. Fortunately, these hashtags provide a space for the sharing of ideas and strategies about early childhood education.
Another effective method is to follow teacher resource pages on Instagram. Teachers who post about the same topics as you are often looking to interact and share ideas. Teachers can also use hashtags to connect with each other. You can even search for other teachers within the state you are in using the hashtags. This can lead to valuable collaborations and professional development. But there are some common misconceptions about how teachers can connect with one another.
