<\/span>Instagram Contests and Giveaways Ideas<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now that we talked about how to create sweepstakes for your Instagram, let’s see some Instagram giveaway ideas. Use these ideas to create the best contests on Instagram!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like, Comment, or Tag Your Friends to Win:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It’s the most commonly used way to run your Instagram contests since it’s also a way to promote your contests and giveaways. As long as your followers like, comment and tag their friends, it will cause your post to appear on other people’s landing page, as well as sending them a notification when they are tagged in your giveaway and contest posts. This is the easiest way to enter a contest, and it’s sure to bring large numbers of followers to your Instagram account, though the ease of entering the contest might create some problems for marketers. It brings a large amount of traffic, but it might not be quality traffic, people who are following your account might end up not buying anything, or you can get a lot of inactive or fake accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IG Photo Contest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you want to do a skill-based contest instead of chance-based, an Instagram photo contest is a great idea. If your brand is selling photography-related products or if you are offering services related to photography, this might be a grand hit. You will also be supporting people that are possibly new to photography or people taking photographs as a hobby. If you are willing to create an IG photo contest, however, you need to plan and choose how you want your contestee to submit the photographs they took. You can either tell them to upload the submitted photographs to their Instagram profiles and use your branded hashtag or use third-party software and tell them to upload there.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"selfie<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Selfie Contest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This method might be for you if you are offering products and services related to beauty. Instagram is already a great social media platform to post your selfies, so why not post your selfies for a chance to win a prize?
Like the photo contests, you need to plan and moderate the comment section of your posts regularly, but it’s a great way to make a contest. There are already Instagram pages on selfies, and they do these contests quite regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skill-Based Contest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You can also make a skill-based contest. If you have music, instrument, or sports-based page, you can set a contest based on skill. For example, if your product is an instrument, you can ask your followers to create or play a song and then give the prize to the best among them. Like in the photo and selfie contest, you can tell your followers to post their music and use your branded hashtag or use a third-party software\/website for the submissions.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"knowledge<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Knowledge or Trivia-Based Contest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Everyone loves a good trivia challenge. You can use this idea if you are selling products or services dedicated to education or general knowledge. The only thing you have to do is to come up with a good question and ask your followers to answer your question with your brand hashtag and perhaps by tagging a couple of friends. With a trivia challenge, you are getting the popularity and ease to join the first idea. Also, you create an easier skill\/knowledge-based contest. Then all you have to do is to select a winner from the comments who answered your question correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
