Have you paid attention to Social Media lately? Six years after establishment, Instagram has grown to a 500-million strong active users network.

These users share 80 million photos daily. Everybody wants their friends to know what they are doing and where they are doing it in real time.

That’s big. Clearly, the world has an appetite for imagery, and this is influencing travel decisions.

So how do you tap into that huge market? First of all, let’s see what the challenge is:

• Targeting – Who is your ideal lead in your travel niche?
• Optimization – What does your lead stand to gain when they get to your Instagram? Can they trust you? Is your branding correctly done to solve your lead’s problem? Can your images and profile name connect with your followers?

Actions You Can Take
