Instagram followers free Step #1 Download Instagram Tags App
First let's download a mobile application for either Android or iOS that would help you find out the highest trending hashtags for Instagram. Most popular Instagram hashtags that most of the people in the world are using along with their pictures are listed within these apps and you can just copy/paste them for your own purpose.

Instagram followers free Step #2 Upload Frequently on �Right Times�
Now a simple strategy to increase followers is to know that the more photos you�ll upload with popular hashtags, the more followers you�ll get.
Our goal is to upload interesting photos with nice editing (lightning and contrast) on the most popular times.
Huffingtonpost published a deep research in this regard showcasing the best times that payback the highest number of engagement. This means, that when you�d upload a new picture on your Instagram on these specific times, your photos will get more likes and your account would get the most followers in return.
These times are as per western times, so in case you�re from India/Pakistan, I�ve found that the peak hours are in the morning like posting a photo around 6 am to 12 pm pay back the best.
Though you can play around with those times as per your local times and then figure out which hours offer you the best engagement.

Instagram followers free Bonus Tips: In addition to these, the following would further boost up your followers count.
Tip #1 Setup your profile professionally
Make sure that your profile has a profile picture of your self as people tend to interact with personalities more rather than company/brand logos.
In addition to that, setup an easy to read profile description. Checkout few of the examples below, and notice how it uses icons and emojis to highlight the prime information.
Tip #2 Use an image editor on your mobile
Make use of an image editor for your smartphone and bump up the lighting and contrast. Lightning makes a HUGE difference in making your photos pop out from the competition.
Tip #3 Interact with other people�s profiles
Not that I would recommend this too much as I personally don�t waste time doing so just to gain the followers, though many people follow others in a hope that they would follow back. This works like 20-30% of the time, though you�d not want to follow people just for the sake of it.
The best approach is to keep your followers to following ratio high. That is ONLY followed people that you�re genuinely interested in following and enjoying the Instagram experience.
Conclusion
That is pretty much what I do to increase my Instagram followers on regular basis. Even though I was personally never too active on Insta, these strategies work and I�ve personally started implementing them religiously.
Give them a try and you�d be surprised.
