In current times, social media has changed everyone’s life by making it easier and interesting. Individuals can easily share a post on any of the social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.

By using Instagram you can also repost which is vitally a good way of sharing a picture from other Instagram users with your followers.

Best Reposting Practices

You should stay aware of some of the ethical and best practices before reposting on Instagram. Let’s have a look-

Ask for Creator Permission

Once you have discovered a picture to be shared then it is ethical to ask the original creator for the content rights before sharing. This can be done most easily i.e. by messaging the creator or if they have shared their email in the bio then you can also mail them. Stay thoughtful while messaging them about the purpose of your reposting.

Do Not Forget to Credit The Source

It is vital to give credit in your post to the original content creator while you are reposting someone’s photo. The best way is to include their username within your caption and it will give them credit. Try to include the credit within the first three lines of your caption, so that it is visible to all. 

Avoid Any Kind of Edits or Changes

It is a best practice to repost the picture without any edits or changes in it. Repost an unedited and untouched picture to your Instagram account. If the picture requires little edit then it is a necessary practice to reach out to the original content creator and ask before publishing an edited picture.
