Feeds from hashtags, mentions or your own Instagram account

So if somebody mentioned your brand, our system will fetch it. The same goes for posts that ate published with your branded hashtag.
Brand your Instagram hashtag campaigns
It’s never too late to enter the mainstream game of hashtags. They obviously seem to be over-used in some cases.
But if you manage to attach an organic hashtag to your brand and provide natural mechanisms to allow people to spread it across the Instagram, then your Instagram hashtag campaigns become viral.
One of the best ways is to include your website shoppers in your hashtag campaigns, by showing what others shared about you on your website allowing them to enter the ‘game’ with incentives or rewards. Just to start the loop, ok?
Expand reach to increase Instagram followers

To do this, you can set up each post of the feed when clicked to be redirected to Instagram.
Or, open them in popups where the layouts have the call to action ‘Follow’ options for redirecting the users to start following you on Instagram.
