Adding 1st Comment To Instagram Posts

How To Add 1st Comment To Your Instagram Business / Creator Posts

Eclincher makes it simple to automatically add the first comment on your Instagram Business posts. This feature is great for keeping your captions clean while still adding hashtags, links, or extra info in the comments. Here’s how you can use it:

1. Create a New Instagram Post

Under Publishing & Scheduling, start creating your Instagram content. Upload your images or videos, and write the caption you want to appear with your post.

2. Add Your First Comment

After writing your post and selecting the Instagram profiles that you want to publish to, scroll down to find the "Add 1st Comment" box. This is where you can type what you want to appear as the first comment when your post goes live. You can include:

• Hashtags to keep your caption clean and boost visibility.
• Links (though they won’t be clickable, users can still copy them).
• Additional info or details you didn’t include in the main caption.

You can also use our Suggested Hashtags feature to get some ideas of what people usually use when posting about a certain topic. Once you're done, don't forget to click Save.

4. Schedule or Post Now

Once your post and first comment are ready, you can choose to schedule the post or Post Now. Eclincher will handle the rest, posting your content and automatically adding the first comment right after.

5. Check Your Post

Once the post is published, the first comment will show up under your Instagram post. You can verify everything looks good by checking directly on Instagram.

Why Use the First Comment Feature?

• Keep captions clean: Avoid clutter by moving hashtags or extra details to the first comment.
• Boost discoverability: Hashtags in the first comment still help your post get found.
• Engage more: Use the first comment to ask questions, share more info, or add a call-to-action.

Using Eclincher’s First Comment feature for Instagram Business makes it easy to organize your posts while still getting all the benefits of hashtags and extra info. It’s a quick and effective way to boost your Instagram engagement with minimal effort.
