How Tinder helped me to get more followers
TLDR;
Make your profile looks great
Place your Instagram handle prominent in your profile
Swipe right on everybody
Wait and measure
I'm passionate about growth hacking and I often experiment with my Instagram profile trying to gain more followers.
I was in South Africa and as I often do I was playing around with Tinder to meet new friends. After a few minutes of swiping, I managed to get 40/50 matches but since I was really tired from my traveling I decided to postpone the interaction/messaging with the matches to a later time.
The next morning checking my Instagram account (@giojzi) I got notified of 2 new followers and looking at their profiles I realized they found my profile through Tinder (Tinder's profile links to your Instagram profile).
To see if the experiment was replicable I decided to do it again, but this time I was not being selective with my swiping. The experiment worked again and I managed to get a couple of new followers.
I was convinced to take things to the next level!
I paid for the premium version that enables to change location and gives you infinite swipes. I created a tool that automatically swipes right on all users. After letting the tool run for about 1h I managed to get about 1000 matches in 2 different countries and a bunch of new followers, few of them messaged me!
Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to be precise with the analysis as I was traveling and I don’t have a precise conversion ratio but I think that Tinder as lead generation tool for Instagram has a lot of potential especially for really “photogenic” people.
