TIL that your Instagram name is searchable. Well, not today, but a few days ago at a farmers markets conference in San Diego. One of their speakers, Molly Balint, spoke about how to maximize your Instagram efforts. It was amazing material and I immediately started editing my name.

Being that it is only 30 characters long, I had to get a bit clever. You see, you also want your business name in there preferably with some choice keywords. As you can see, I ended up breaking up our name since it’s also meant to be said and read as “swing in Denver.” Then I also wanted to work in dance, so now I have four searchable keywords - “swing,” “in,” “Denver,” and “dance” with a Call to Action.

Additionally, I made sure to include What we do, Where we do it, and How to learn more. It’s worth checking out that link in our Instagram profile too and ponder why we made that choice. More on that later!
