Default Instagram Traffic?

Anyone have any Instagram traffic? I'm looking at the moment.

Good question. I'm a little unsure as to what Instagram traffic is and how to generate it, though.

Care to explain what you mean? I'm trying to figure out how anyone would generate traffic with the Instagram app.

Pretty much what I asked too. Curious!

I know it's not too difficult to generate some traffic via Tumblr, but Instagram I have yet to see a way to do it.

OK I tried a few things with Instagram. They are quite strict where adult content is concerned. I've already gotten a warning about nudity, but one thing I will say is that I got a nice amount (under 50) of followers in a fairly short amount of time.

I'm just going to leave the account alone and see what it organically does. If it gets deleted or banned, so be it.

There is a delicate method to this which is sending me pretty good hits, but nothing in huge volumes (yet).

I believe I've made some progress here with it VIA the different APIs that are built into Instagram, Tumblr and Twitter.

But am I already saying too much?

It's hard to say what kind of SE relevance it's giving, but when you use a lot of relevant hashtags to describe your photo(s), it does seem to get you views and followers. I'm not watermarking my photos yet, but I may in the future. As long as you have your URL visible in your profile, you can generate some hits that way.

Anyway, this is what I'm seeing in my Google analytics. Still no huge volume, but I guess every little bit helps right?
