Episode notes
Pick A Narrow Niche First
- Pick a very specific niche describing who you serve and what you help them with.
- Start hyper-focused and broaden later as your audience and expertise grow.
Optimize Username And Name Line
- Use your username as your brand name and choose readable variations if taken.
- Put searchable keywords in the Instagram name line rather than repeating your username.
Choose A Recognizable Profile Photo
- Use a close-up, well-lit personal photo for personal brands or an icon version of your logo for businesses.
- Avoid busy images or full logos that don't scale for tiny profile thumbnails.
