Are you on Instagram? Now the question is no longer this but… How many Instagram accounts do you have? Yeah, don’t make that face. It is increasingly common to have more than one Instagram account. Because? For many reasons.
You may have one personal and professional account. Small and medium-sized businesses do this at the beginning and continue to feed both with content or end up uniting them because it doesn’t give them life. It may also be the case that you have a reporter soul within you divided by two passions, and you want to separate them on your two Instagram accounts. Finally, perhaps you have embarked on an adventure and you are managing the Instagram account of others.
As you can see, having two Instagram accounts is much more common than you think, but of course it has its operational problems, don’t you think? Well the reality is that no. The only thing that can go wrong is if you slip up and post thinking you were on your other account, but other than that, manage two Instagram accounts from your mobile, without having to log in to each of them, it is really simple. As?
Let’s assume that you already have your first Instagram account created and that it is a private personal profile, and you want to add a second professional and public profile. For it:
Go to your Instagram profile settings > Account > Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and you will find: Add new professional account.
Now you will only have to follow the steps to create your new account: indicate what type of profile you are (artist, musician, blogger, digital creator, entrepreneur, health sector, writer, product/service, restaurant… The options are quite wide. Next, enter your personal information, telephone number, photo and email ( You already know that, except for the photo, the rest of the information is not visible on Instagram. From that moment your second Instagram account will be operational.
As manage your two Instagram accounts without leaving the application? Go back to your main Instagram profile and where your username appears (right above your profile photo) it now appears as well the beak of an arrow pointing downwards. If you click there, your Instagram accounts will be displayed. So, all you have to do is select the one you want to visit.
Another way to jump from one account to another, which has been implemented by Instagram quite recently, is from your feed, click Double click on the icon with the profile photo of your other accountwhich appears at the bottom right of the screen.
In addition to creating these new accounts from your profile settings, if you click again on the top of the arrow that displays your accounts, you will see the option directly there: Add Account and a +. As you have seen, creating a new account on Instagram is very easy, but managing several at the same time is also easy.
It is not necessary for your second Instagram account to be professional, you can create more than one personal account and they work the same way, or start with a personal account and then change its status to a professional account. What’s good about the professional account? It offers you statistics that you don’t have with personal statistics, and they can help you a lot to create content strategies or define .
Instagram allows you to have up to five accounts created at the same time. But don’t want to fly before you walk… Start little by little because managing 5 accounts overnight can cause some confusion between accounts.
