class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Giveaways could be a goldmine for new followers if you do them correctly. They aren&#8217;t just popular because creators want to &#8220;give back.&#8221; Here are a few benefits of a successful giveaway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Youll_Get_More_Followers\"><\/span>You\u2019ll Get More Followers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the Instagram page is often required to qualify for one of the giveaways. Some of the present followers will, without a doubt, seek a piece of the possible winnings. Still, there will almost certainly be an influx of newcomers. The ultimate consequence is an increase in the number of followers.&nbsp; When the giveaway is active, you should maintain publishing high-quality material. This way, these new fans are more likely to stick around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_Engagement_Rate_Will_Go_Up\"><\/span>Your Engagement Rate Will Go Up<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may anticipate a high level of activity on that post. Just make it a condition of entering the giveaway that participants like it. Because of the attention that one of your posts is receiving, Instagram will share some of your other posts. This results in an increased number of opportunities for involvement in other postings. In a perfect world, all of this will result in a ripple effect that helps your whole page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Youll_Reach_More_People\"><\/span>You&#8217;ll Reach More People<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/instagram-reach-unlock-this-metric-to-elevate-your-presence\">reach<\/a> of the posts will significantly increase if you insist that users tag other accounts in them. More impressions will benefit your brand by putting you in front of new potential followers.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-antonius-ferret-5253854.jpg\" alt=\"How To Do a Giveaway on Instagram To Increase Followers, image \u21162\" class=\"wp-image-1503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-antonius-ferret-5253854.jpg 640w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-antonius-ferret-5253854-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-antonius-ferret-5253854-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-antonius-ferret-5253854-36x24.jpg 36w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-antonius-ferret-5253854-48x32.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Do_a_Free_Giveaway_on_Instagram_Follow_These_5_Tips_To_Cover_All_Your_Bases\"><\/span>How To Do a Free Giveaway on Instagram: Follow These 5 Tips To Cover All Your Bases<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A giveaway shouldn&#8217;t be difficult to execute if done properly. If you don&#8217;t know how to do a free giveaway on Instagram, you could get confused. We can help you gain as much from the process as possible with our tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Decide_the_Giveaway_Goals\"><\/span>Decide the Giveaway Goals<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As we stated above, there is a lot to gain from doing a giveaway. You need to be clear on what your objectives are. Are you satisfied with just increasing your <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/instagram-follower-count-got-you-down-read-this\">follower count<\/a>? Maybe you also want to increase sales revenue. How you execute the giveaway depends on your goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Choose_the_Giveaway_Gift\"><\/span>Choose the Giveaway Gift<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brands approach this part very differently. Some giveaway actual stock that they would normally sell. Others may offer a prize not related to the brand. An example is an online boutique giving away a weekend for two. Some creators will bundle their gifts with products from other creators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why knowing your goals is so important. If you want to stimulate sales, giving away products is a good idea. The people who engage with the giveaway will genuinely like your products. They may buy even if they lose if you promote the products successfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, if you only want to increase followers, an unrelated prize may do. However, you run the risk of them leaving after the giveaway if they aren\u2019t interested in your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Know_Your_Giveaway_Guidelines\"><\/span>Know Your Giveaway Guidelines<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What are the entry requirements for this giveaway? Do they have to use a campaign hashtag or share the giveaway post to their Instagram stories? Always make the rules very clear in the post caption. You don&#8217;t want them to be too demanding, either. This can turn people off altogether. Liking, commenting, and sharing are sure to impact <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/engagement-rate-on-instagram-the-number-that-really-matters\">engagement rates<\/a> positively. Requiring at least these is a good starting point. Also, do not forget to put the deadline for entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Put_the_Giveaway_on_the_Grid\"><\/span>Put the Giveaway on the Grid<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to promote this for people to know it exists. Sure, having participants share their stories promotes it for you, but you need to do some work, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Get_a_Good_Giveaway_Picker\"><\/span>Get a Good Giveaway Picker<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Giveaways could lead&nbsp; to losing credibility with your following. This happens when they have to question how you arrived at your winner. Having an impartial tool is key. We will discuss this point further shortly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these tips, you are closer to knowing how to do an Instagram giveaway that benefits your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Keep_the_Giveaway_Fair_With_an_Instagram_Giveaway_Picker\"><\/span>Keep the Giveaway Fair With an Instagram Giveaway Picker<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It only takes one poorly executed giveaway to get a reputation that sticks. Labels like &#8220;scammer&#8221; or &#8220;fraud&#8221; don&#8217;t disappear as easily as they come. When deciding how to do an Instagram giveaway, a good Instagram giveaway picker is essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your giveaway got an overwhelming response, manually checking the results isn&#8217;t an option. Luckily, you can automate giveaways with a picker tool. Here are some options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_to_Gift\"><\/span>You to Gift<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This giveaway tool claims to be completely secure. They won&#8217;t be asking you for your Instagram login information. You will only need to submit a link to your giveaway post. Establish the conditions for your Instagram giveaway to verify who is participating in your Instagram contest. The next step is up to You to Gift. The tool will begin doing automated checks on the entries to identify people who meet the requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Viralyft\"><\/span>Viralyft<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider this free option for a giveaway picker. It will go through all the comments on your giveaway post and choose a winner at random from among them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can be transparent with your participants by sharing the name of the tool you used. Your credibility is everything on this.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-andrea-piacquadio-3775168.jpg\" alt=\"How To Do a Giveaway on Instagram To Increase Followers, image \u21163\" class=\"wp-image-1504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-andrea-piacquadio-3775168.jpg 640w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-andrea-piacquadio-3775168-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-andrea-piacquadio-3775168-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-andrea-piacquadio-3775168-36x24.jpg 36w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pexels-andrea-piacquadio-3775168-48x32.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Options_for_Your_Instagram_Giveaway_Rules\"><\/span>4 Options for Your Instagram Giveaway Rules<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are so many ways to do this giveaway. Choosing the best Instagram giveaway rules can determine how successful it is. Therefore, this step is crucial. When deciding how to do an Instagram giveaway, focus on engagement. We&#8217;ve set out four options for you below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Have_Contestants_Tag_a_Friend\"><\/span>Have Contestants Tag a Friend<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To maximize reach, have the contestants tag a friend in the comments. This way, you bring attention to the post, as well as encourage a comment. It makes sense to offer a prize that accommodates the friend in the prize. Who knows? That friend may want in on the giveaway, too, and comment for themself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Have_Them_Follow_You_Across_Platforms\"><\/span>Have Them Follow You Across Platforms<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some influencers have great reach on other platforms than IG, or vice versa. You could require that contestants follow you on more than one platform. This helps secure a following across multiple platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Have_Them_Follow_Other_Pages\"><\/span>Have Them Follow Other Pages<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instagram collaborations are a great way to capitalize on others\u2019 followings. Instead of posting joint photos or reels, consider collaborating for a giveaway. You and other pages could offer a small gift to create a basket. You could choose a page that offers products that complement yours. If you have a candle business, tag a brand that offers homemade skincare products.
