For people who are less familiar with regular social network upgrades, here’s a short introduction- Vine is a downloadable video sharing app launched in 2013. Unlike Youtube, it only allows users to capture and share short looping videos, for as long as six seconds. It also has the allowance of browsing through videos posted by different users and some other videos by categories such as- theme, trending, or popular. While it is owned by Twitter, Vine also allows its video to be shared on platforms like Facebook. It is free of downloading charges on IOS and Android devices.
Here’s what you can do to get more vine followers:
- Think on your feet:
Nothing clicks more than originality. If your vines are not only creative but also hilarious, people are bound to follow you. You can always personally invite your friends to like your vine and become vine followers for your account. Try to be a person who others would like to follow.
- Create an attractive profile:
By this I mean that your Vine profile should have a professional touch to it. A good bio would only add to its charm. This would score brownie points with the audience, with some of them becoming your followers.
- Like for like:
Use popular hash tag, which can become a winning mantra. Try to like videos posted by different viners. Some people will start following you, if not all. Also, find a popular viner of your genre. Like and comment on their vines. It is surely getting you some attention. You could also make a group of viners. If one friend’s vine goes viral, you can automatically get followers.
- Frequency matters:
Try to be a regular viner. Post quality vines frequently, atleast one per day. Use other social networks like Twitter, Facebook and Instagram to spread the word. Hashtags make it easier to find your vine, so make sure you use a lot of them. ( relevant ones, of course.)
