I have an IG account with 38K followers, my question is

a) After how many minutes I should submit new picture, as I am doing it ever 25 minutes - and doing manually (running only 1 account)
b) How can I monetize it OR should I wait to get more followers

Each post is getting 700-1100 Likes (real likes)
Account has 300 posts

Uploading a new picture every 25 minutes is an overkill in my opinion.

Posting around 2-3 pictures a day is sufficient. you can monetize it now or choose to wait for more it's up to you.

Everyone has their own opinion on this, but I upload 2-3 photos myself on smaller accounts.

I would upload maximum of 5 photos per day, spread out across the whole day

I think 1 post every 2 hours will not be annoying.

Posting every 25 minutes is going to end up getting more people to unfollow you, as well as hurt your engagement rate. The lower engagement rate is going to mean that IG just doesn't place your posts into its user's feeds. The ideal number of posts can range from 1 post every 2 days, to 4 posts per day. Anything outside of that range is too little or way to much.

I have a 50k account. It is growing steady with posting between 2 and 5 pictures a day. When the pictures are populair, I post only 1 or 2 pictures. However, if they don't get much attention I tend to post more (Max 5.).

iconosquare is really detailed, you get a short free term and after that they ask like 4 bucks per month. but they show you the location, age, etc from your audience.
