Take extra care when crafting your captions
It’s no secret that Instagram captions represent valuable real estate when it comes to engagement.

They shouldn’t be treated as an afterthought. For each post, consider:

Do you need to tag any accounts?
Did you write a strong call-to-action?

Much like your content strategy needs to be diverse, the same rings true for your Instagram captions.
