New Instagram

June 12, 2013

Over the last couple of months I've been working on branding, specifically when it comes to my social media presence. I pretty much have a different username for every account but lately I've wanted to get them all organized and match my blog name better.

A few days ago I woke up with around 30,000 new Instagram followers and quickly realized they were mostly, if not all, SPAM. I looked down through quite a bit of them and they all had the same amount of photos (5) and no followers. So, I decided Instagram was a good place to start. I made my old account (@blondish) private and set up a new one: @kendradarling



I didn't want to use thedarlingblog because I feel like it depersonalizes the account a little, especially since I'll be using it as my main, personal Instagram account as well. So, go follow me over there please! It's kind of nice starting from scratch but I have a lot of people to go re-follow now.

  7. I've sort of been wanting to do the same. I make my social media profiles different from my blog name because I use them both for my blog and personal use... I already have four different accounts for four totally different projects, so having another would just be even more work. I like how your new username flows with your blog's name a bit! :)

  9. Yes it is smart to use all one name for branding purposes. But is best to keep personal and blog social media separate if your blog is going to be a business but I guess that is hard to do with Instagram. Wow didn't know Instagram could be spammed by giving you followers k-razy. Well I am your newest blog follower via Bloglovin.
