How Do I Link My Shopify to Instagram?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 11:21 pm

As a business owner, you know that social media is a powerful tool to reach new customers and grow your brand. With over 1 billion active users, Instagram is a platform you can’t afford to ignore.

The good news is, connecting your Shopify store to Instagram is easy! In this article, we’ll show you how to link your Shopify store to Instagram and take advantage of this powerful platform.

First, you’ll need to create an Instagram business account. This is different from a personal account and will give you access to features like analytics and the ability to post promotional content.

To create a business account, simply open the Instagram app on your mobile device and tap the “Sign Up” button. Then, select “Sign Up with Facebook” or enter your email address, full name, and username. Once you’ve created your account, be sure to complete your profile by adding a profile picture and bio.

Next, you’ll need to connect your Shopify store to Instagram. To do this, go to Settings > Accounts > Connected Accounts > Add New Account > Shopify.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to link your Shopify account to your Instagram account, there are a few things you should keep in mind. First, make sure that you have a business Instagram account set up. If you do not have a business Instagram account, you will not be able to link your Shopify account to it. Second, when you are linking the two accounts, make sure that you use the same email address for both accounts. If you use different email addresses, the link between the two accounts will not be successful. Finally, make sure that you have a strong password for your Shopify account. This is important because if someone gains access to your Shopify account, they will also have access to your Instagram account.

You’ll be prompted to enter your Shopify URL and then asked to grant Instagram permission to access your store. Once you’ve connected your accounts, you’re ready to start sharing your products on Instagram!

To share a product on Instagram, simply go to the product page in your Shopify admin and click the “Share” button. From there, select “Instagram” from the drop-down menu. A new window will open where you can customize your post before sharing it with your followers.

When sharing products on Instagram, be sure to use high-quality images and compelling copy to grab attention and drive sales. And don’t forget to use hashtags! Hashtags are a great way to reach new customers and make it easy for people to find your products.

Linking your Shopify store to Instagram is a great way to reach new customers and grow your brand. By taking advantage of this powerful platform, you can drive traffic back to your site and increase sales.
