How To Create Instagram Account
91 segments
So, if you're ready to join Instagram,
I'm going to walk you through exactly
how to create a brand new account from
start to finish, even as a complete
beginner. So, let's jump in. So, to get
started, we're just going to open up our
Instagram account. And obviously, if
you've never used Instagram before,
yours is going to look a little bit
different. I have some other accounts
that are listed here. But regardless of
whether you have a existing account or
not, what you want to do is look for at
the bottom here, create new account. So,
you've got a couple of different
options. You can either set up your
account from an a mobile number or from
an email. We're going to sign up with an
email. And now you just want to type in
your email address and hit next. And
then it's going to email you a
confirmation code. So, you just open
your email and get that code. And I do
want to mention too, if you want to grow
your business on Instagram, I've got a
free resource for you, and it's a free
Instagram for business toolkit. And it
covers how to get followers, navigate
algorithm updates, and measure your
results. It's incredibly helpful,
especially if you want to run your
business on Instagram. Plus, it comes
with post and story templates and expert
guidance on hashtags, real strategy, and
posting for maximum growth. It's
completely free. All you have to do is
click the link in the description below,
and it's all yours. Let's jump back in.
Then it's going to ask you to create a
password, so you can make that whatever
you want, and hit next. It's going to
ask for your birth date, and then you
can enter your full name. This way
people can find you much easier. So,
whatever your name is, click next. And
then your username will be some
construct of that. You have options of
what that is, but there can only be one
in existence. So, if your name is Bob
Smith, there might be that might already
be used. So, you see here, it says that
that's checked. Windle Pennyworth,
ironically enough, there is no others.
We can click on next. And so, it'll pop
up with your Instagram terms and
policies. You can read through that to
that you understand it. Once you have,
then you click agree and let's get
started, Wendel Pennyworth. And then it
has some options if you want to get
notifications and your location and your
contacts and all of that. That's
entirely up to you. Click next. And so,
now a couple of things just to get your
account finished up here is we're going
to add a profile picture. So, you click
on the little camera. It's going to ask
if it can access your photos and videos.
So, I just added my profile picture in
there. You can always do that later. So,
when you click next, it'll take you to
this page here and this is your home
page. And then from here, on your main
page, you can click on edit profile and
it'll have some more information about
your pronouns, your bio, links to your
website, anything like that that you
want to add. And then it'll also show
you some other accounts to follow. The
key is following accounts that are
either your friends or people that you
want to interact with, things that
you're interested in so that it can
continue to suggest those to you. And
then down below, you have a little
guidance there of what needs to be added
to your account to finish it up.
And then from there, you now have a
brand new account on Instagram. So, I
hope you found this video helpful and I
will see you in the next one.
