How to share your videos on Instagram

Sharing your videos on Instagram is really easy and gives you a great option to share.

3. You can choose from the gallery for saved photos as well as videos or you can access the camera. If you access the camera, you can take snapshots and upload them immediately.
4. For each of these options, you have more options available. For example, you can edit your video or add captions as well as hashtags.
5. Once you click the "Share" button, your video will be uploaded to Instagram and you will be notified as soon as the process is complete.

Never underestimate hashtags

On Instagram, you will find a wide variety of hashtags. These ensure that videos and other content are viewed more often, as they appear higher up in the feed. Therefore, it makes sense if you use the right hashtags for your videos. However, you should always find out what each hashtag means and which users use them. This way you minimize the risk of a shitstorm.
