A new tool called App Action has recently launched, allowing users to drive traffic from their Instagram account to their other social media accounts.

How Does it work?

The app links your Instagram account to your Facebook and Twitter. The pictures you post to Instagram then get sent automatically to both your Facebook and Twitter. App Action isn’t the first tool to do this but it is one of the first to actually show the image on your twitter feed. Before now you could only post a link to the image on instagram.

Tracking

Once an image is shared it can then be tracked using a specially generated link. This link allows App Action to record audience engagement and drive traffic back to your instagram account. This is extremely useful when trying to increase your followers and likes.

Analytics

From your App Action dashboard you have access to a range of analytical tools. At a glance you can see how many followers you have, how many accounts you are are following, the total likes on all of your posts, the average likes per post and so much more!

Updates

App Action send you daily or weekly email updates about your Instagram analytics. This a very handy feature for anyone who wants a quick overview without having to log in.

To wrap up

Although the tool is a relative newcomer, we have been impressed. It’s range of features coupled with its sleek user interface make using it an absolute joy. Setting up an account was as easy as signing into our twitter account and the whole process only took a few seconds..

After 6 months of work, the developers released the tool to the public for free. App Action report that beta users of the service saw a 23% increase in engagement.

This is something we feel that all businesses and bloggers should get on board with. It’s going make your life a little easier.
