How do you actually get people from Instagram over to your blog?
In this episode of The Branding Fix, we’re talking about the Instagram strategy we’ve been testing to drive more traffic, clicks, and engagement using Grocers List, a DM automation tool that sends links automatically when someone comments with a trigger word.
We break down how bloggers can use carousels, reels, captions, stories, and comment-to-DM prompts to get people off Instagram and onto your site or email list.
We also talk about why captions matter more than ever, why hashtags are not the main discovery tool anymore, and how Instagram’s interest-based algorithm can help your content reach new people when you package it clearly.
If you’ve been posting on Instagram but wondering how to turn that attention into actual blog traffic, this episode is for you.
