It is obvious that geolocation is a powerful tool for promoting your business or personal page. Understanding why this is so important, let's define how to create a geolocation record in Instagram via Facebook.

The main thing is to have a profile in the popular Facebook social network, because without it it would be difficult to leave a location (especially a unique one, which was not previously displayed on maps).

Step-by-step instructions for creating a geolocation

Follow these tips and quickly create a geolocation to promote your profile or business:

1. Go to the Instagram account and select the photo that you liked.
2. After uploading, add an interesting and informative description to it (it's important that users know what the record is about, for example, if the address of the restaurant is indicated, you can tell what tasty dish you tried there.) Business owners can notify the entry about the availability of products in stock or update the range, describe the advantages of a particular product or service.
3. To create a geolocation, click the "Location" button. Enter the coordinates, address or name of the institution in the search field. Choose the required list from the list.

How to add geolocation to Android

In OS Android, adding geolocation is much easier. To do this, in the settings of the phone you just need to turn on the GPS / Location Reporting and Instagram will automatically determine the address when adding a new photo.

How to think up names for your location

Interesting names of locations are attracted and interested in potential customers, instead of banal names of streets and institutions. For example, some users sign favorite bars "Cozy dolly", cafes and cinemas "A place where it's good". It's interesting and unusual, but we should not forget that this is not always appropriate.

For serious offices, shops and institutions it will be sufficient to indicate the address of the institution on the Instagram page via Facebook. If your business wants to be "on an equal footing" with customers and provide a friendly relationship, you can add a little creative. For example, the location of a cozy cafe can be called "Come to visit" or "The most delicious home cooking". For coworking and time-cafe will look great "Friendly atmosphere" and so on.

Reasons for not displaying geolocation

Before you start working with the geolocation, make sure that the device supports GPS, and its settings are activated. If the service is enabled, but still does not determine the location, it is most likely blocked by an antivirus or third-party applications (very often some programs block geolocation, mistaking it as a spyware attack on the OS). Go to the app settings and activate Google Play Services.

IOS sometimes also has this problem. In some devices, Apple simply does not have GPS, and its work may be affected by bad weather conditions, fast car traffic, indoor facilities or narrow streets.
