Instagram Best Practices

  • Keep captions under 125 characters to avoid "more..." truncation
  • Use 5-10 relevant hashtags for optimal reach (not all 30)
  • Add line breaks every 2-3 sentences for readability
  • Place important hashtags in first comment to keep caption clean
  • Include a call-to-action in your caption

Caption Optimization

Instagram captions can be up to 2,200 characters, but only the first 125 characters show without tapping "more". Front-load your key message.

Hashtag Strategy

While you can use 30 hashtags, research shows 5-10 relevant hashtags perform best. Mix popular and niche tags for optimal reach.
