If you want to grow big on the platform

If you want to grow big on the platform and please the algorithm, word on the street is that you need to be using all of Instagram’s features. That means posting Grid Posts, Reels, Guides, Stories, and IGTV videos routinely – ideally several times per week for each. That alone amounts to a full-time job.

With blogging, it’s the same. You need to spend lots of time belgium whatsapp mobile phone number list and growing your blog before seeing any substantial results. I’m talking 6 to 12 months at least, but more realistically like 1-3 years.

There are exceptions to the rule in both cases. Instagrammers raving about how they grew their accounts to 150K followers in one year and bloggers shouting the same. But that’s rare.

The reality is that most Instagram accounts don’t make it big unless you have stellar photography (and now videography) or an undying hustle for being on the app every day. Most people just burn out.

With blogging, the reality is that you need to be invested in learning and writing, and publishing.

4. Monetization
As for monetization, I will always stand by the notion that blogs come out on top. Just take a look at how much these top bloggers make. Some of them earn well over $100k per month from their affiliate blogs – like the one you are reading now.

With blogging, you can make money through affiliate marketing, display ads, private ads, sponsorships, and more. Better yet, you can earn passive income from ads which are not really possible with Instagram wherein everything you create is more or less “active.” Don’t believe it?

And even if you can put affiliate links on Instagram, it’s not so lucrative as affiliate marketing can be on blogs.

You can take time away from your blog and still make money in the background, but you can’t really do that with an Instagram account. You need to show up consistently.
