Sometimes there is a need for two or more Instagram pages. This is either an addition to a personal business profile account, or more than one advertising platform for making money, or just a way to look at the lives of some people without showing your true face. In any case, the question “How to create a second account on Instagram?” is asked often. In this article I will give a comprehensive answer to it.
Is it possible to have two accounts on Instagram?
Is it possible to maintain two pages at the same time? Of course you can! Only here there are some nuances. Instagram prohibits the use of email that has already been used before when registering. That is, if you want to have two or more profiles, you will have to create two or more emails. If you are going to connect both accounts to a business profile, then either two Facebook pages.
And if it is most convenient for you to access a social network through a phone number, then you will have to have two SIM cards. Everything is logical and elementary simple - the restrictions of the Instagram administration suggest that one person can only have one account, no more. But we can easily get around this if we follow the recommendations from the next paragraph.
How to create a second account?
Below I will write what exactly needs to be done to register a second account. At the same time, I will omit the algorithm for registering on a social network, because since you already have one profile, you know what to do.
So, in order to create a second account, you need:
- To begin, create an email.
- If you plan to earn money with it, I also recommend registering an account on Facebook and immediately
- Buy a second SIM card and link it new page to her number. This item is optional, mail and FB may be enough, but to ensure greater security, I still recommend that you fill out as much information about yourself as possible, thanks to which you can easily restore your account.
How to add a second account?
The most convenient way is to use the second profile through the Instagram application itself. Its functionality allows you not only to log in through a second profile, but also to quickly switch between them, which makes using multi-profiles as convenient as possible.
So, our algorithm of actions:
How to quickly switch between accounts?
That's all added. How to return to the first page? Maybe look for the treasured button in the same place where we entered the login and password? But there is only a suggestion to end the session of the second page. Is it even possible to switch between accounts? Of course you can. And it’s also easy to figure out - in order to log out of one profile and log in through another, you need to go to your page, find your nickname at the top and click on the small triangle next to it. After this, all connected profiles will open. Here you can add another one if necessary. Instagram allows you to use five accounts through one application. Not more.
How can I disable one of my accounts?
But it will not be possible to remove one of the accounts from the menu on our page. To do this, we need to open the settings again and scroll to the very bottom. There you will be prompted to end your active profile session. Yes, before you delete your second Instagram account, you need to go to your profile.
On the Internet, I came across articles that said that you just need to open a list of profiles, press and hold one of them, and a menu will appear asking you to delete them. But this is not so, everything here, albeit quite a bit, is more complicated.
Why can't I register a second account?
Sometimes it happens that we try to create a new page, but we encounter some difficulties. Below I will list the most common ones. If their solution does not help you, contact Instagram technical support.
- Outdated version of Insta. In this case, there will be no “Add account” button at all. There is only one treatment here - you need to renew yourself.
- Bug. Such a large social network, of course, cannot work without bugs. Therefore, if everything seems to be working, but doesn’t, I recommend rebooting your phone or trying to register through another gadget, and then adding a second profile.
- If you're registering from the app itself, make sure the data you're entering doesn't have any previous pages associated with it.
Conclusion
So, how to create a second Instagram account? We have made sure that the mechanism for registering the second page is no different from the process of creating the second. The only thing that was potentially new to you from this article was the ability to use multi-accounts via Instagram. It's really useful feature, and I am very glad that the Instagram administration added it.
Instagram is, of course, a very interesting platform where you can not only watch and post beautiful photos, but also learn something, sell something, and generally realize self-realization. A couple of months ago there was almost no information on promotion on Instagram. Moreover, SMM gurus unanimously insisted at their webinars that promoting an online store on Instagram is a futile endeavor and you cannot sell there. And this at a time when many there were already doing this very successfully))
Nowadays there are a lot of courses on Instagram. And there are plenty of companies that undertake to promote accounts for money. I admit, I don’t know how effective this is, because I’ve never contacted anyone. I listened to webinars a couple of times, but didn’t hear anything new there. For me, the source of information is still Instagram itself. I just look at what’s going on there, who’s doing what, and try to come up with something myself. Therefore, I can say with confidence that Instagram promotion works for free.
Recently the conversation started about how to promote an account on Instagram and I decided to tell you how I do it. With the hope that this will help someone and that someone, perhaps, will share their experience.
When I started writing, I realized that the volume was very large and, apparently, I would have to divide everything into several posts. In this post I will discuss what is better: two Instagram accounts or all in one.
I have 5 accounts on Instagram. Of these, I actively manage 4 and promote 3. All three are “working” accounts:
- My jewelry ( @naoblakax_jewel)
- Instagram of the jewelry magazine little-thing.ru ( @our_little_thing)
- And it became beautiful jewelry with enamel ( @stalokrasivo)
When you start selling something through Instagram or not selling, but still organizing some kind of activity, there are 2 options: either register for this activity, or keep everything in your account. Both options have their pros and cons.
All in one
If your name is Sveta Petrova and you make jewelry under the brand “bySvetaPetrova” and your personal Instagram account is @svetapetrova, then it will be convenient to create a common account for your personal life and work.
You don't have to constantly re-login. Instagram will be updated frequently (if there are no new decorations, post a selfie. Boring days, post a decoration). By promoting jewelry, you will also promote your personal brand. And by promoting your personal brand, you will promote jewelry.
But there are also disadvantages here. So, if you have a lot of work photos and a lot of your own, there is a chance that you'll just spam your subscribers, uploading 10 photos a day and many will start unsubscribing. However, you can't please everyone. From time to time someone will unfollow anyway.
One of the most simple ways promotion on Instagram can be called mass following. That is, subscribing to other users. When someone follows a person, they see it. And he logs into the account of his new subscriber and often subscribes in response. Out of politeness or because he liked your photos. By following a large number of people with your personal account, you add them to your personal feed. Thus, before you get to the photos of your beloved friend in your feed, you will have to scroll through a sea of photos of completely strangers (and perhaps not even interesting) to you.
For me personally, this is inconvenient. For me, my personal Instagram is a corner of fun and tranquility, and I follow only those I know and from whom I look forward to every new photo. But to each his own.
Different accounts
The very first question that arises for a person who decides to create a separate, working account: how to make 2 Instagram accounts on one phone?
Everything is very simple. You need to go to the Instagram settings in your regular, personal account, find the word “log out” in them and click on this word.
And then in the menu that appears, select “register via email.” mail." For a new account you will have to select and new mail. That is, the mailbox to which your personal account is registered will no longer work.
This way you can create as many accounts as you like, attaching them to different emails.
UPD: the rules have changed! Now you can register up to 5 accounts from one device. However, if you need more, you can try to cheat by resetting your phone to factory settings, using a proxy or a changed ID.
Additionally, these additional accounts will be a bit impersonal and formal. In today's online world, this is not always a good thing. People want personal touch and total immersion. Depersonalization is not a disaster and you can work with it, but more on that later.
The main disadvantage here is that you will have to constantly log back and forth, maintain activity in all accounts and respond to comments on time in all accounts.
UPD in February 2016 it became possible to maintain several accounts (up to five) from one phone without re-login! You just need to go to the settings, select “add account”, enter the username and password for the second account and that’s it! Notifications will be sent to all accounts, regardless of which one you are logged in to. In this case, by clicking on the notification, you will be taken to Instagram immediately logged in under the desired account.
IMPORTANT: before adding a second account, you must first create it! How to do this is written above. When you already have a second account, you can add its username and password and subsequently re-login through the drop-down list.
Now about the positives. Firstly, you can easily outsource a third-party account. There are a huge number of companies and freelancers who are ready to manage your business accounts for you. You probably won’t want to give your personal one to a stranger, but your work one is welcome.
Secondly, The work account is the face of the brand. Therefore, if your name is still the same, Sveta Petrova, and you create something under the brand “Chamomile-blotter,” then people will look for you specifically by chamomile. And having found Sveta Petrova, they will not immediately understand that this is one and the same thing.
And if you have several accounts for different activities, then even more so different accounts It will be more convenient on Instagram.
And thirdly, with third-party accounts you can easily use the most simple methods promotion– likes, following. To make your life easier, you can even buy access to a service that will like and subscribe for you. But remember that you use any third-party services at your own peril and risk.
Instagram provides a sea of opportunities. This is not only daily inspiration, interesting people and the opportunity to be closer to the stars, and even to easily say something nasty to them or give them a compliment without having to go through security. Instagram is a space of experiments and fresh ideas.
Having weighed all the pros and cons and decided whether you will separate your accounts and create a second account on Instagram, you can move on to strategy and promotion itself. But more on that later.
Do you have an Instagram? Are you hosting it just for friends or are you promoting yourself or your work? I will be very grateful if you share your experience in the comments :)
