Question About Instagram

[CBolton]

I have an account on Instagram but, it has changed a lot and not sure how to advertise my Zazzle store to it.  At one point we just had to put in the link but not sure how to share. 😞

Hi @CBolton, I think the best approach here is to use your product images (which can be downloaded from your products pages), or you can create your own media and share, either on your grid or story and use a "link in bio" style method to bring customers to the products. There is a section where you can add a URL to your bio on IG for this.  You could post a link to a Collection you have curated for your Instagram products to have them in one place for customers to shop. 😁

I can't post anything from my store on to Instagram. 
When I go to create I have to download something from my computer and when i put a design up and info about it as well as a link it doesn't post or share.

There is no direct "share to instagram" button like there is to pinterest. You have to upload your mockup/promo images direct to your instagram account via the app or website.

There is no way to link from your instagram post direct back to zazzle. You have to type the link as text in the description or add a comment with it in but it won't auto link back if someone clicks on it.

It's always been like that.

You can add your shop link to your instagram profile or maybe a link to your collections that you are promoting.

or there is https://linktr.ee where you can add links then use the "link in bio" hashtag. 

There are other "link in bio" tools - just have a search - also search Youtube for posting to instagram for beginners - am sure there will be loads to watch
